WAR CRAFT !!!!!

"Hey Shoot him, fast fast", what is taking you so long!" Sounds like one of the terrorists does it not?
Anyway, this is the conversation between two of my nephews,and they are playing Warcraft or whatever. It is a computer game. The violence is mind boggling though.
Two school going kids, at an age when they should be out on the ground, playing football, cricket,etc. But then they are busy in front of the computer. They are playing a game where there is a villain, who comes on in many forms. Sometimes animal, sometimes man, sometimes clothed in Armour, but always armed with the latest guns, grenades etc. He is almost invincible, because the computer controls his shots. While the kids have a hand held mouse and key board to control their piece.
The villain will jump out from behind a closed door, he may be hanging on the ceiling and jump on his unsuspecting victim or he may just steal in from behind him and shoot him on his back. He has no scruples, no conscience, nothing!!!!! And he will always shoot and kill. He has unlimited ammunition .
The poor guy out to get villain is shot again and again, and has to jump about to get ammunition from all sorts of place around the building. Sometimes he has to earn it.
Sounds familiar does it not. It is just like the terror attack we had recently!!!
But then there is a difference between the two. The guy in the game gets to earn lives!!! There are place around the building where you can go and get lives!!!!Great ain't it?
Anyway, Three Cheers to our Security Forces, be it the much maligned police, the overworked NSG, the army, navy or Commandos. I am happy to say, I am an Indian and proud to be one.
