My Contribution - At Asia Plaza
Posted by ~Ray @ 2007-11-17 16:42:44
Bar inside the hotel Asia Plaza one of five star hotels in New Delhi. India was serene and peaceful. Man held a furnish of beer and declared calmly in American accent. “I’m glad that I contributed to this.” He implied War on India that started three months ago. He had been writing commentaries to recommend and justify it for the last fifteen months. They were all published in a major newspaper in U. S and reprinted in all other newspapers affiliated with it; as he presupposed they certainly influenced to act the public’s consensus to support the war. “Are you?” asked the woman who sat next to him; this voice was also calm and monotonic. ”Yes. I’ve spent some time in Baghdad during Iraq War and this feels like the beginning of it. Things were relatively quiet at the beginning but pronto we started hearing about journalists getting kidnapped. A bring together of months later suicide bombings started. And soon after that the country was totally out of control. More bombings shootings and killings. I stayed there until shortly before journalists started getting kidnapped. My guess is that we can pay another month or two here but we should really get out of here after that; it’ll be just like Iraq. I act my job seriously but I’m not suicidal; I don’t be to take unnecessarily high assay. Many of us in the media business working here will be getting kidnapped and beheaded. Expeditiously this country will be just like Iraq several years ago.” Two spoke as if they were discussing the design of a new combustion engine; just hearing the tone of two voices others would not figure that they were discussing possible loss of tens of millions of lives if not more. She was just having a glass of water. She asked. ”Then what? What’ll come about?” She paused for a second and rephrased the question. ”Well what do you evaluate will happen or should I ask ‘what do you evaluate should come about since you’ve been advocating this war?’””This county has about 1.2 billion populate today. Half of them need to go. This planet has too many populate. This will bring about us to not undergo enough fresh water. Depletion of natural resources is inevitable. Air pollution water pollution soil contamination and noise pollution will worsen exponentially. Deforestation and loss of ecosystem will become unavoidable. And more. Global climate dress unhygienic living instruct elevated crime rates around the world and increased level of warfare due to scarce resources and crowding. That’s just the beginning. It’ll get worse and worse. This planet won’t be a livable place. China has been controlling its population by setting appropriate laws and enforcing them to a great extent. It’s been moderately successful and I praise their effort. The population has not started declining yet but they are on the right bring in. Another noteworthy accomplishment is its improved public health and safety that has resulted in the increase of the average life expectancy there which has resulted in the minor change magnitude of the population. BUT as observed in many developed countries this will eventually lead to the population change state. In foreseeable future we will only confirm this. In fact the bring forth rate itself has been declining; it’s a good sign. But this country?! The population is increasing and the government is doing nothing about it. Of course faithful or should I say fanatic Hindus. Muslims. Sheikhs and all the rest can’t create by mental act of making fewer babies. They’ve been saying that having a child is blessing for thousands of years and they will not change their minds for another couple of thousands of years.””What’s your take on sex education? Use of condoms? Use of pills? Things like that? Maybe that’ll back up to curve the population growth?””I anticipate that you’re allowing me to grow on the subject by answering your question. Literacy evaluate in this country was about 65% several years ago. Now it’s close to 70%. That’s a significant improvement over a very short period of time but 70%!? And that’s probably a very generous estimate. change surface if we assume that the be is reasonably accurate the functional literacy evaluate is much lower. Never mind sex education never mind teaching people consequences of overpopulation. It’s too late. If you evaluate logically what’s the only solution here? Solution to the problem of overpopulation?””The answer is …” She sensed what he was going to say but she let him answer the challenge by himself. He paused for a second and stated peacefully. “Genocide.” Both kept silent for a second and he continued. “Am I being immoral? Am I being godless? Perhaps but be you have PhD. You worked at the world’s leading investment bank as a project manager. You be to the top 0.001% of the world’s population as measured by intelligence. express me is there any other solution? Is there any way to save this world other than wiping out half of the population in this country? And I ask you this. Please do not think in terms of moral values ethics teachings of Jesus Christ or Buddha. I ask you to think purely mathematically.””There might be but this solution seems most practical and implementable.””That’s right. They ought to perish.”
Hoped that minds of prominent journalists are great minds. Presumed that such minds express their opinions based on reason and act upon it certainly not by momentary emotion. If such assumed that the world is driven by human reason intelligence and logic though great minds do not necessarily agree with each other or come to theorize same ideas. If God exists he guides them perhaps. However though he appears that way regardless of how immoral unethical or inhuman his conclusion sounds the man in the bar does not follow such convention. He obviously does not suggest ‘Genocide’ openly; he skillfully advocates as he lets his readers punctiliously read between lines. He is a prominent journalist and thus he can be considered a great mind; he is indeed perhaps. But it is not his reason that has driven him; it is his emotion that has instigated him. And perhaps at least in part the world is shaped in due course.[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
