Use The Sea Route Stupid

We lived through the siege in Mumbai; luckily Wednesday was one of the few nights of the week we did not drop in to either the Taj or the Oberoi. Instead we were at Indigo where the staff cannuly switched off the lights though, given how much the swines knew, that would not have helped had Indigo been on the list. Many of our friends were not as lucky.

Fulminating about the Paki Bastards is of no use, given that their army appears to be ignoring their supposed government. The Paki army would like nothing better than a mobilization of the Indian army which would give them an excuse to cut back on the hammering they are finally giving the Taliban. Better to let the mullahs in uniform take a beating from an even more kattar set of mullahs.

That leaves us with having to devise something that looks like we are punishing the Paki's so that our bloodthirsty politicians can claim victory.

I suggest that our warships which are hanging around Somalia loiter a little bit north and start shadowing merchant vessels going to Pakistan while staying nicely out of the 200 mile limit. It will not be long before jittery shipowners cancel Karachi as a port of call, heaping just a bit more misery on the already miserable country.
