Pity the Pigs

More gun violence. Modernity in warfare.

You know Asians are consummate pork consumers.  The grow 'em. They eat 'em. They buy more from other countries. China is the biggest consumer.  With 1.4 billion  people, there's a lot of demand. 

But did you know, China has 250,000,000 swine fever diseased pigs. Dire problem. They are found en masse floating in rivers.  Others, also diseased, are sent to slaughter houses for human consumption.  

Now, the infection problem has spread to North Korea. We never know how NOKO handles any problem.  But, just across the border to the South Korea (SOKO), another big pork consumer.

So then???

South Korea, like many Asian countries, has a large pig population and is frightened by this highly contagious disease coming in from the North. What can be done? Well ...

SOKO now employs snipers to shoot, possibly infected, feral pigs coming into the South. 

Being totally cynical, I could posit new low tech wars against Asia, where the perpetrator releases swine flu virus into the countryside.  Disaster.  Pitty the pigs, the newest victims of modern war.
