Ahmed Farahnakian: Ice City, Greenland

Today, I met with Ahmed Farhanakian. He told me the infection didn’t hit their country as hard as the others, maybe because of the geographical features of their country, difficult transportation, small population, or the isolation of other countries by a large army. But the main problem came from the refugees from the east, millions of them. Iceland thought it was the Pakistani’s and told them to control their people; but it was from India. Everyday brought new problems, hundreds of thousands crossing their border, and perhaps many of them were infected. Something had to be done to protect themselves from these problems. The best place was to block off the Ketch River Bridge where all of the immigrants crossed to get to Iceland. Ahmed was the leader of this mission. It was bombed and taken down, outraging Pakistanis. Airstrikes and border clashes were Pakistan’s revenge. It was awful.

  1. First of all, was it not the Pakistan border that Ahmed and his crew had bombed? However, yes, it was awful how this had occured. This is how war can get started between two countries. Of course we had to start this strategy of bombing the border just to help protect others from being safe and sick free. Then, the Pakistans feel as if they have been threatened, and this causes them to bomb our border station. It is so confusing how we try to help people with the best way we can, and we end up getting bombed. It is absolutely crazy.
