War on terror

The War on Terror has been declared. Its nice that the initiative has been taken. Its also scary.

The whole event now has a nicely designed logo, which yes, you CAN download onto your desktop, im sure you can also order t-shirts, and print it onto a mug too. Cool.

Its a word of caution to us, to learn from mistakes that have been HUGELY created in the mother of all mistakes, the US. The ease and speed with which they brand and package and glam-up horrific events is supernatural. Before the 2nd tower fell down, there was already a nice logo in place. The War on terror was sustained by media. It scared the already scared population out of their wits.

There was always SOME alert. Red Alert, Orange Alert, Yellowish-white Alert. The entire nation was on edge, was spooked out of their brains by wonderful proponents of unbiased news such as FOX news. It was mind numbingly scary to just WATCH tv. And the worse part is, its all agenda pushing.

In the USA, under homeland security, YOU can be arrested without warrant, your home searched without you being there, can be held indefinitely without trial, ALL under "suspicion" of being a terrorist. very scary. No privacy, no shit. Very VERY scary. That 'Khuda kay liye' film is scary, cos it seems that can actually happen! Its mostly as bad as watching Jurassic park and then realising your dad just got you a Velociraptor for your birthday.

Those things ONLY should happen in the movies. But then, that's agenda pushing. The Government USED 9/11 to push agendas they'd wanted to for AGES. And the guys there bough it hook line and sinker. While i fully support the media initiatives, it just needs to be seen with a word of caution. When the CEO of JP Morgan India, Kalpana Morparia mentions Homeland security in passing, like its a huge success in the US, i have my ears pricked up in suspicion.

Do NOT debase this event to push agendas.
