It's Thanksgiving which means a lot in
America and nothing here in Milan, Italy
where I'm spending a few days.

But where ever you are, if you turn on
CNN or the BBC (the only two English
channels you can reliably get in
Europe), it's been "all terrorism,
all the time" on TV since last night.

Now I don't dispute that the attacks
in India are news or that the deaths
and injuries are tragic, but does this
story merit all day and night coverage.

And you can hear the newscasters doing
everything they can to build up the story,
its significance, and its dire portents
for the future of humanity.

I notice that the European news stations
note what happened and then get on to
news from the rest of the world.

Not so for the terrorism obsessed
US and UK. They're going to make this
into the biggest event since landing
a man on the moon if its the last thing
they do.

What gives?

Yesterday, the day began with news
that the US just threw another trillion
dollar log on the fire to try to stop
the slow motion train wreck that threatens
to collapse the world financial system.

Less than 24 hours later, that's history.

Now it's "all terrorism, all the time"
this time at a luxury hotel in Mumbai,
India.
