India

I found it interesting that jenny was writing about the trafficking of women, men, and children into India to be sold and exploited for physical labor, factory labor, working in brick kilns, agriculture, and embroidery factories. I knew a little bit about the trafficking of people but i did not know that Children, specifically, are exchanged between in India to be used as beggars, and forced into terrorist groups.

An interesting fact that Tyrell has informed me on is that in India their life expectancy is very low. Its interesting because the life expectancy is 66.46 years. That is not very old.

 India and Pakistan have been at war for a very long time. India's nuclear weapons tests in 1998 caused Pakistan to conduct its own tests the same year. November 2008, terrorists allegedly originating from Pakistan,conducted a series of coordinated attacks in Mumbai. I find it interesting that Pakistan waited ten years to attack India.
