India's tour of Pakistan..is it worth it?

Even as i post the bottom post, there is a post on our Bulltin Board.

India's tour of Pakistan could be worth $20 million.

All it will take to wipe out the Pakistani Cricket Board's huge losses is one visit from the Indian team. I repeat...in just one visit. India's tour in March-April is expected to rake in huge financial gains for the Pakistan Cricket Board.
I am one of the biggest cricket fans you'll ever meet, but something about this deal is just not right!!!

Why the stomach churn?
Sadly, Indians are ready to play cricket with the perpetrators. But, before they do so -- let us acknowledge what they're choosing to ignore :

There were the Pakistanis who packed in bombs into a school-bus in Bandipora, grievously injuring five schoolgirls. Packing bombs into a school bus! (Ref: Washington Times)
Karam Veer, 14, and Harpreet, 13, who were brutally killed at Vaishnodevi just as they stopped to get a bite to eat. Dozens of other children were injured that day and, of course, the terrorists proudly took ownership for this deed.

The list could go on and on -- since this happens almost every day. In many cases, the children receive yet another kind of sentence -- they lose their childhood, their parents and their futures.

But simply put, every week, Indian parents have to scrape the bodies of their children off the streets or receive bullet-riddled bodies in body-bags, thanks to the Pakistanis -- and still they are enthusiastic about seeing Tendulkar square up to Shoaib. Wow.......wat a craze 4 cricket !!!

Remember, all this killing and debauchery does not come for free -- the Pakistani terrorists get good money for this. And, the money has to come from somewhere. Not surprisingly, The New York Times amongst others have consistently reported on the open fund-raising for jihad-e-Kashmir (& many other organisations 2 name) that goes on unabated in Pakistani mosques. While our Rotarians collect money to save Pakistani lives, Pakistanis proudly announce their accomplishments in raising resources for the terror in Kashmir.

So, it would seem that some businessmen, who would benefit from television revenues and access to the markets through selling their wares during the matches, may be willing to pay handsomely for killing their children. Rest assured that by advertising and gaining access to Indian customers, some of these same traders will gain many times more than the $20 million the PCB will earn. This is just initially predicted figure. Amount must be much much higher than this.

No prizes for guessing which 'charities' these traders will bequeath sacks of money to. And, Indians are stupid enough to believe they can buy the goodwill of the financiers and cheerleaders of the terrorist clans.
Doesn't make sense to me, any which way you look at it.
In the past, the Samjhauta Express, life-saving medical treatment for dozens of Pakistani children, numerous peace-offers -- nothing, absolutely nothing, has tempered Pakistani society's innate bloodlust. So, why do Indians expect magic to happen this time?
But, but, but -- say the die-hard peaceniks -- this has nothing to do with cricket! Not quite.

Pakistani cricketer Shahid Afridi's terrorist first cousin, a local commander for the Harkat-ul Ansar, was killed by the BSF in an encounter in Kashmir recently. Please note -- first cousin!! So, while the BCCI (Board of cricket control in India), Indian advertisers and the paying Indian public will bail out the now bankrupt Pakistan Cricket Board, close relatives of Pakistani cricketers are busily killing Indians. Also, let us not forget that officials of the very same army, that run the Pakistan Cricket Board, also run the organizations that regularly issue threats to the lives of Indian star cricketers -- nice people they are dealing with, aren't they?
Such direct family and personal connections to terrorists are not at all uncommon in Pakistan -- a country where doctors, nuclear scientists, cricketers, PhDs from MIT and government officials regularly consort with terrorists.

So, if Indians refill the coffers of Pakistani cricket and with their hard-earned money, there's a very good chance some of it will find its way back to their home -- as bullets into the heads of Indians!! Is this the right way to invest our money? Do really Indians r so stupid wanting to finance the people who're anxious to bash in the heads of their own children?

Sure........ some of them want to see their docs to treat Pakistani children -- great go for it !! Some want to make sure that relatives can visit each other across the border -- nothing wrong with that! That's all very Indian and very humane. But do they really have to subsidize the war on our children, their neighbors and their extended families?

Sure, cricket is important to INDIANS -- but is it important than their own children & family members ?? If their answer is yes, then well forget this article And i m extremely sorry 4 taking their valueable time.
