Earthquake Diplomacy
Relief materials cannot bring peace (Satire)

It is good to send aid to quake victims. But it cannot stop the terrorists and the nukes.

What the people of Bam didn't suffer in the hands of the leaders of the 'rogue state' of Iran, was inflicted on them by an earthquake. So the city of about 80,000 souls had her population reduced by half by the fateful hand of 'nature.' But I am not going to talk of miracles. Like the unearthing of a man in a closet after two weeks. No, the doctors had better explain that.

I am only interested in how this member of the infamous 'Axis of Evil' suddenly became the beloved country after the disaster.

Not that this was the only sin of Iran. Back in the day, the country had taken hostage of Americans. This Islamic state had also been guilty of gross human rights violations. And it is fingered to be hiding nukes--make it weapons of mass destruction. This is besides the several alleged terrorists' hideouts in that 'outlaw regime.' But now, thank God for the earthqake. Because what man would neither achieve by declaring the Year ...
... of Peace nor by praying for peace in Rome, is going to be brought about by the maddening of the earth.

There was general sympathy for Iran after the quake. All the country's enemies came to her rescue. Even one of her obdurate enemies sent large sums of money, relief materials and disaster management experts to Iran. That country even planned to send a high level representatio to Iran, but this was randomly rebuffed.

The UN was not left in the show of suppport. It has already gone up cap in hand begging for millions of dollars to help Iran. Perhaps, this prodigal son will gain sanity and return someday. Who knows. Perhaps even Iraq would be a better place to live after the hanging of Saddam who was found hiding in a spider hole the other day. Who knows. Perhaps North Korea would stop playing hide and seek, and start playing ball someday--like Lybia. Who Knows. And then we would hold hands together and start shouting, Peace and Security!

But wait. All this talk about a peacefull world free of weapons of mass destruction and terrorists, is pure crap. Because there will always be nukes and 9/11's. The reason is that we have not asked the right questions. ( What causes terrorism?) Neither do we know the solution. ( How can we prevent it?) This is the message that I am trying to get out to whoever cares to listen with my book CHASING SHADOWS! : A Dream, published by 1stbooks.com.

It is my desire that the controversy generated by the publication of the book would lead to solving the world's political, economic, social, religious, and enviromental problems that breed this monster. Then we would have prevented the sinking of this planet.

Earthquake diplomacy by relief materials cannot bring world peace. Some call it chasing shadows.
