Perhaps prepared for the onslaught, Tsipras had also acted.
Keeping the attack focused and its intensity rather low, unlike the 2008 Mumbai massacre, serves two purposes: it throws a spanner in the peace process and does not provoke India into a retaliatory strike, which it had pledged, and perhaps prepared for, since the Mumbai attack.
Boxill did not, perhaps, prepare for the accompanying legal turbulence.
