Following the terrorist attacks in Mumbai, India gets included in 20 of the world’s most dangerous places to visit on earth
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/travelnews/3533883/20-of-the-worlds-most-dangerous-places.html
Did they add the UK into the most dangerous places on earth after the London subway bombings?
Did they add the USA into the most dangerous places on earth after 9/11?
This smacks of double standards.
And who cares about the London telegraph anyway?

Hi pratickm,
Actually the Daily telegraph is a well respected newspaper.
Lots of people care about what it says. More so than what the Toronto Star says.
I imagine your who cares is the colloquial for "I don't care".
But anyway, just take it with a grain of salt.
The same newspaper would declare Spain is an unsafe place to visit many years ago when it was plaqued by terrorist bombs from the Basque terrorists, yet people from the UK would visit Spain in hordes.
So would all those lovely Suecas, Finlandesas, Danesas, Noruegas, Alemanas...
However I don't remember seeing it claim that the UK was unsafe to visit when it was hit by IRA bombs, and even if it had, that wudnta stopped the millions who visit it anyways.
And people ain't gonna stop visiting India for whatever reason no matter what the Telegraph has to say.
Bakne do saale ko...
Anyway, to your signature, I wonder how much moolah Rhett is making now in the so called 'destruction of our civilisation'.
R u? Even Buffett is losing.
Quote:Exactly, that's what I meant by "who cares".

If people are not gonna listen to you, then it means "who cares"
There are actually very few newspapers in the world today that have retained their respectable positions from the pre and post War days.
The New York Times and Washington Post have all taken a credibility hit by aligning themselves with either the right wing or the left wing.

I find that time and time again, this quip from GWTW movie has turned out to be true.
Invading Afghanistan and Iraq has certainly made a lot of dough for Bush and his cronies.

His investment in GE will pay off eventually.
That doesn't mean I am buying GE though.
And no, I'm not adventurous or wealthy enough to play the current market.
I'm sitting tight where I am, except for a few side excursions every now and then
It would be interesting to do a quick check to see who is beating the market these days, and how.
How are you doing?

Besides they are running out of investment options. Personal safety or not, they will have to invest in India in order to diversify in current economic environment. I guess they will hire more expat Indians willing to replace them.
