Clueless in baghdad !

Sashi tharoor's Bookless in baghdad opened a new vista in me , of understanding the life of the iraqis ! Poor citizens selling their precious book collection for a living ! But recent happenings in baghdad really seem to be ruthless ! A few deaths daily for no fault of theirs, albiet they were born on that part of the planet. Now tharoor would dare say "Clueless in baghdad !

After "Ladies & gentlemen, We got him !" rhetoric, one is given a sense that still they have not got him(the real enemy i mean) . Iraq is on a grip of civil war, poor people, they are clueless ! For troops there getting on the street fights of iraq seems a new paradigm shift than their tora bora days ! Days ahead do not inspire them. But still they stick on to see light at the end of tunnel !
The point of reference here is that we are also affected by the oil spill. Economists raise alarm on the rocketing oil prices. High time India starts reducing its dependecy on oil if it has to go forward undeterred.
It's the terror that terrorises humans and not the beings ! None other than iraqi's would stand testimony to these words !
