Oops! India ‘Accidentally’ Fires Missile into Pakistan

The Top 15 Onscreen Terminator Robots, Ranked in Order

What’s next–the Terminator?

So you want a computer chip implanted in your brain so you can do smart things, do you?

Well, India has “accidentally” fired an unarmed missile into Pakistan, owing to a “technical malfunction” (https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4045853/posts). It must’ve been a really smart bomb: it didn’t hit anything and didn’t kill anybody. India calls the incident “deeply regrettable” and has set up a court of inquiry to find out exactly what went wrong.

India and Pakistan have been to war several times, and this could have, with any bad luck, started another one. Just what the world needs, just now. Because some techie hit the wrong button on his keyboard… or a computer briefly went haywire.

Gives you a lot of confidence in modern defense systems, doesn’t it.
