[Leica] Paris tragedy

[Jayanand Govindaraj]

I feel sad for the French people, but we have been living this hell that is state sponsored terrorism for 30 years now, with all the western powers providing money and weapons in abundance to Pakistan to continue doing so. Even last month Obama has agreed to give them weaponry to supposedly fight terrorists who are sponsored by their own Army. Short term foreign policy band-aid initiatives lead to long term problems which are difficult to solve. You reap what you sow, I am afraid.

It is always a wonderful show, and Paris is a wonderful city to visit as a photographer, or indeed as an ordinary tourist. Until my wife got ill, I went to Paris Photo every year, and I was sorry I couldn't go there again this year.

To Philippe and the other photographers we know in France, or any one else who is in Paris, I hope you and your loved ones are safe and that you have my deepest sympathies on this tragedy.
