TO ARMS! TO ARMS!

The recent announcement of over US 60 billion military aid packages by the US for the Middle Eastern countries namely Israel, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar and the UAE made me think that it looks like they are getting ready for war. Never mind the fact that this entire region's history and formation of modern borders were carved out in blood.

Add that with these facts. Al Qaeda and Osama Ben Laden are still loose somewhere in Waziristan. The Iranians remains steadfastly insistent in procuring and advancing their nuclear ambitions. And their brethren in Iraq now controlled the government after its Sunni coalition partner quits. Imagine if Musharraf, the Pakistani president, fails to survive the next assassination attempt on his life, thus creating a power struggle within the country, which its nuclear warheads will be at last within the grasp of the fanatics. US and its allies can't do a damn thing other than being a sitting duck magnet inviting attacks from whoever are willing enough.

Chilling facts.

And Malaysian politicians worries about bloggers and flight delays?

Something is definitely wrong somewhere.
