Women can't keep a secret

Yesterday Abu Dujana, the Lashkar terrorist was killed by Indian Security forces in Kashmir. If reports are to be believed, apart from creating terror in the valley, this married young man of 28 had several girlfriends with whom he had rotational affairs. A busy guy always on move hiding from the army and police met his end as he was tipped off by one of his extra marital lovers while spending some quality time with his wife after a hiatus.
Last summer Burhan Wani, a young, handsome, charismatic Kashmir terrorist, a recruiter of terrorists and also a champion womanizer was slain in similar manner. If reports are to be believed, one of his jilted lovers led the Indian authorities to him. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
In June, 2006 Abu Musaba Al Zarqwai, the leader of Al Qaeda in Iraq and precursor to ISIS was killed by US laser guided bombing. Carrying a bounty of $5 million, time and again he eluded the American forces. Soon he took a young girl as his wife which spelt doom for him.
It accentuated his fall, as the girl was tracked by US agents when she went outside of his hide house to procure her feminine needs. The Americans were able to track her. Ultimately, it was that girl who provided the clue to Zarqwai's location and Americans completed the rest of the formalities.
Osama Bin Laden's extended family of multiple wives and his brood of kids was the harbinger of his downfall. The courier who fetched stuff of their needs for them informed the Americans, leading them to their Enemy no 1. Al Baghdadi, the numero uno of ISIS is still uncaptured - probably his detractors haven't figured out an woman linked to him.
Vladimir Putin having headed Russia's dreaded KGB for long time knew a thing or two about laying Honey traps. He recruited a girl who exposed a Chechen rebel leader by exposing herself in front him, facilitating the upward journey of her paramour straight into heaven by poisoning him.
Rather than taking vengeance on their paramours, it might have been the typical case for women unable to keep secrets - knowingly, gullibility or inadvertently revealing them. Ever since Kunti kept the world's best kept secret by hiding the identity of his illegitimate son Karna, the entire woman race has been cursed by his legitimate son Yudhistir to be never able to keep a secret. It's said that an average woman can't keep a secret for more than 48 hours.
Coke has probably taken a cue from Kunti's Curse. It is no secret that Coca Cola's secret formula is only shared among 7 persons, not a single of them being a woman. The men who have the knowledge of the secret formula never travel in the same flight together to ensure its protection. They have managed to keep the secret till date.
If Coke ever breaks the rule, then this female will tell her female friend the Coke's secret with a Promissory Note extracted under oath - not to tell anyone. Then she will tell her female friend the secret formula, again with a small request of not to tell it to anyone. In less than a week the "Don't tell it to anyone" finds itself on the cover page of Atlanta Courier Journal.
