A lack of comment is just not Cricket.

I'm quite stunned that nobody appears to have started a thread about the attack on the Sri Lankan cricket team in Pakistan yesterday.

I guess that it's just not seen as important to anyone here.

If there is a thread, I do apologise, but I haven't seen it on the main page.

It seems to suggest that only certain topics are going to fire the imagination or engage the political arguments that have so readily fuelled the threads of IN.

What's the problem? Is it because it's in Pakistan? Is it because it's the Sri Lanka team? Six police officers were killed. Is anyone here interested in asking why or condemning the attack?

Is it just completely off the radar because it isn't in a location that we seem to care about or involve people who can fuel the argument about certain other geographical situations? Doesn't it fir the propaganda profile?
