So - the question arises. WTF were those terrorists alive? Why hadn't they been executed? You can't free a terrorist from a tomb. Or, if you do free him, he isnt going to accomplish much.
Don't bother answering - I alraedy know why. It is for the same reason that our own impotent government took captives from various places around the world, then imprisoned them in Guantanamo. The same reason we have maximum security prisons scattered around our nation, partially filled with people who have committed truly heinous crimes. The same reason that the terrorists who gunned down innocent victims in Paris will ultimately go free, unless they die of old age in prison first. No one has the balls to do the necessary things, like executing animals. No balls at all.
As for Wall street exploiting the world, while paying the military industrial comples to act as their hatchetmen - yeah. You're preaching to the choir on that one.
No it is actually simpler. They were in jail awaiting trial and Indian judiciary has huge backlog [scroll.in]. India does have capital punishment, but the Sri Lankan terrorists who killed them got 11 years to live in jail before final judgement was passed.
Yes, my bad. I forgot all about the crazy backlog that India's justice system has. In this case, the police never should have taken them prisoner. They should have been shot to death while resisting arrest.
Hey, if US cops can get away with shooting unarmed people in the back, then claim that they felt threatened, I'm sure the Indian cops could have staged a convincing scenario for shooting these swine down.
On the plus side, in recent years, their legal system has made some serious strides in the direction of timely justice.
Yes, that is true. Cops do that all the time anyway, but high profile targets get high profile attention. It is ultimately the poor and powerless who suffer. If you are powerful then you can even be a terrorist.
