Today's sign that there's something seriously wrong with the world

I'm really bothered by this. In fact I'm quite upset. Right now just go to Google News As of a ridiculously late 2 am EDST on Thursday June 13, 2006 the thrid most important story in the World section is about the train bombings in Mumbai. The third most important story in the Sports section is about the Zidane head-butt. Total stories about the train bombings: 1,609. Total stories about the head-butt: 2,976. Does anyone else think it is shameful that a bizarre violent outburst in the world's largest sporting event by one the sport's most famous players is more important than terrorist bombings in the most populous and most important city in one the world's most populous countries?

200 people are dead and hundreds more or injured.

Even though I'm guilty of this too I find it troubling that when London's transit system was attacked by terrorists the outcry seemed much higher in the blogs and news that I read.

Mumbai my thoughts are with you. Especially those who've had to burry loved ones and those who are still searching hospitals hoping to find them alive. Nobody should ever have to experience that tragedy.
