Global Village of Pillage

Eight Hi-tech Indian brains killed, under mysterious circumstances,within USA.
Today,the world is reading and digesting that news.
Without any reaction what so ever.

World?
What world?

The Indian world.
The world within India,as India itself, and especially the southern states, from where most of these now recently found-dead, humans, hailed from.
As we as Indians, have failed in the past, and are failing yet again.
Failing in securing,ensuring and accounting for well deserving and lovable, livable Indian lives in the present "Globalized and Glocalized" society alias "Global Village of Pillage".

Indians:failing and ailing and found wanting, as always.

Life in this country indeed comes very cheap.
Doesn't matter if its a slum dog type Indian who has been killed in remote corners/metros of India, or a High Tech, brainy professional killed in USA.

In my hey days such thoughts use to prick the conscience of us, Fighter Pilots, who were being killed by the dozens too, then,in crashes.
Remember them?
The news papers,would scream about the numbers...as lives did not mean much then too.
Machines did, and our aging outdated machines were being lost one by one in multiples of tens.
More than any war attrition would have made that big a losses.

Not us, as we were and are still, proud of our training as such.
Our acquired skills and inbuilt wills, too.
The aging and out flown, machines were largely to be blamed.
Nobody bothered on that account, for a long long time, about the lives lost in that act.
As a matter of fact.

As, an Indians life even as a Fighter Pilot did not mean much.
The high and the mighty had their own designs, plans, and priorities.
Always.

The result: Talent shied away from the services.
Technical brains preferred foreign shores and budding pilots: a commercial airline as a career.
Tit for Tat.

Today, the services are are screaming for the right stuff.
Officers are needed in not hundreds, but thousands, and that too as of yesterday.
Squadrons have been number plated too, for the lack of both machines and the men behind the machines.


Today,the news papers have reported and recorded the eighth killing of an Indian Technical Human Resource, within the geographic limits of USA.
Isn't this, now, the regular loss of eight well educated Indians, on foreign soil, in mysterious circumstances, enough! to stir the nations conscience as such?
Do we require many more of such killings, as its all about numbers here, in India?
Isn't one Indian life lost, enough?
One ambassador?
I am sure, yes! as every Indian, like any other nations' citizen, when going abroad, is considered to be an ambassador of the parent country.

If that be so...then why is the killing not stopping?
Why are eye brows not being raised?
Why is the parliament silent on this account?
As it is always, when it comes to killing of the ordinary and not so ordinary, on its own soil or on foreign.

Is it because none of the above incidents get to get within the media glare for long durations, to elicit a reaction from those who are made responsible?
Like 26/11/2008 Mumbai attack.
To spring into action?
To stop it.
Like Americans do.
After 26/11, massacre here in India, the FBI flew down to India, and probed/accounted for each of the American lives lost on Indian soil.

Are we not in a position to do the same now that we are regularly loosing not so ordinary Indian lives, within in USA.
Lives, that would have otherwise continued to contribute to the global might that USA enjoyed and enjoys, thanks to these/such Techies.
I remember reading that: 40 percent of the USA's computer industry brains, are from foreign shores, performing their not so easy and ordinary chores.
Now they are being targeted too...by unknown slayers.
For unknown reasons.

And none in India at least as on date, seems to be really bothered to find out why!
To get to the bottom of it all and put and end to that too.
At least make a beginning.

Lets sit back and think of the time, investment, money, sacrifices, spent/made by parents, institutes, colleges,society as such in making them Techies worthy of going and working in USA.
All that is lost in one stroke...a meaning less attempt by some hurt party(ies).
Is that all there is to it...after all that toil and effort?

Do we need to remain and moan in silence?
Like we are so used too?
Till it happens in real time and in real numbers meaning...in hundreds and thousands.
The current trend indeed is disturbing and concerning.
Time we acted, reacted, and pro acted on such heinous crimes as Americans do react too, for loss of American lives any where on the earth.

If it is not stopped, if not any thing else,I am sure the famous " Visa Gods" of India will soon run out of business for sure.
With the exodus thus stopping, we can only imagine what would then happen to USA.

No, it would not mean that India would get the brains...that is another national issue.
That will take a lot of time and toil on our part.

We will have to grow up and morph on that account, as Chinese have.
Look at what they are doing to China today...with Chinese brains at the epicenter and global brains in the peripheral regions.
Shanghai is a living breathing example emerging on the horizon.

Expo 2010 will surely demonstrate to the world all that would have been planned and put in place too, soon.
By Techies and Non Techies...mainly Chinese.

Are foreign lives been lost their too, as meaninglessly as is happening in USA, today?
No.

Having said all that lets begin to worry in a hurry about Indians and Indianess.
Now.

As far as Indians in USA and the current dilemma is concerned...remember 40 percent,etc etc?
