meanwhile, the chinese are up to more mischief

aug 2nd, 2006

as usual, the inscrutable ones are doing their thing. their latest is 'river bombs'.

of course, they are planning to divert the brahmaputra as well, which will convert uttar pradesh and bihar into a desert. once again, thank you, j nehru, vk krishna menon, et al, for giving away tibet to china.

maybe mulayam singh yadav, laloo prasad yadav, and other politicians from those states can migrate to the desert middle east? after all, what's the difference between one desert and another.

why isn't china's national newspaper saluting china's novel use of rivers as a weapon?

thanks to reader girish.
