Yep, no love lost there. I was working for PIA in 1971 when the India/Pakistan war broke out, from which Bangladesh was formed. Because of the unpleasantness with India, we were forced to fly from Karachi to Dacca (as the spelling used to be) via Colombo, (check it out on a map!), so that we did not 'invade' Indian airspace. In a similar vein, when I was in Montreal a few years ago for an interview with Bombardier, I had to attend a medical. The taxi driver who took me to the clinic was a Jew who had immigrated from Israel. He spent the whole journey (about 30 mins) telling me how bad the Palestinians were. As is typical of my luck, after the medical, the guy who picked me up was a Palestinian who was also an immigrant, who of course had a totally different story. I did ask them both why they couldn't just live in peace with each other, which of course only made matters worse |
