Global Warming prevents a war

Nothing left to fight over.

For nearly 30 years, India and Bangladesh have argued over control of a tiny rock island in the Bay of Bengal. Now rising sea levels have resolved the dispute for them: the island's gone.

New Moore Island in the Sunderbans has been completely submerged, said oceanographer Sugata Hazra, a professor at Jadavpur University in Calcutta. Its disappearance has been confirmed by satellite imagery and sea patrols, he said.

Actually, the end of the Cold War is the primary reason for global warming.

Fact!

I thought it was a lack of pirates?

Mother Nature - the ultimate third party arbiter in a dispute like this.

I had forgotten about that. Maybe Somalia is where the IPCC guys should look to account for recent cooling trends in the lower latitudes.

the island's sinking

Sinking or erosion mostly I would imagine, after all the island was 2 metres high at one stage and the oceans have not yet risen that much ( Adelaide would be half gone if it had)
