When War Is Fun

This is an excellent time for news lovers . It's exciting because of several crisis happening in the world right now. There is the Israel-Hamas fight , then followed by the Israel-Hezzbolah war . These are coming right after the India bombing and N.Korea missile launcing .Oh , don't forget the ongoing Iraq drama and Iran nuke problem. What a mess ! Actually , these sporadic ' wars ' can be fun if not for people dying. I remember the first Gulf War was some experience for me and most wokers in our company. I was working as a Manager for a plant in Saudi Arabia. That's the time that Saddam sent several scud missiles to Riyadh. Initially , we were afraid 'cos there's been talk about Saddam fitting these scuds with deadly chemicals. So in the first few scud attacks , we donned our masks and sought shelter when the siren sounded. After a few of these attacks , we found out that the scuds were ' harmless '. These scuds were not fitted with chemical weapons. From then on , every siren was greeted by our people not by fear but by cheer. We would raced to the rooftop of our building and watched the US Patriot missiles intercepting Iraq's scud missiles in mid air . It's like watching the New Year's fireworks show.
What a sight !
