"NEW DELHI: Mohammed Ajmal Amir Kasab was captured in a chilling photograph and now he has confessed his role in the Mumbai terrorist attacks, but he remains a 'gunman', rather than a 'terrorist', for the New York Times and other leading American newspapers. And with a reason.

After his surprising and dramatic confession before a special court in Mumbai Monday, Kasab is hogging headlines in the American media that is revisiting the semantic-ethical issue of which attacker qualifies as terrorist.
For the New York Times and the Washington Post, Kasab is strictly a gunman."

No limit to the double standard. As a reader pointed out, 9/11 attack was a pilot error.

Hafiz Sayed has been let off by the Pakistan Govt citing that there was no evidence against him. Pak went through the motions of acting against terrorists just because Hillary was in the neighbourhood. It is the Pakistani courts, advocates and police and they expect India to provide the evidence to be presented in their courts.
During the Kandhahar hijack just to mean business the hijackers killed a new wed passenger returning from honeymoon in Nepal, just to prove that they mean "business". To avoid many such passengers getting killed, India released Mohd Azhar, who was freely roaming in Lahore and other places. There was this documentary in NGC "Jailed Abroad" about this terrorist as to how he kidnapped innocent Australian and American tourists from Delhi, how they had a providential escape and as to how he was later caught and held by the police. If only the West did not apply its double standards may be 9/11 and Daniel Pearl murder would not happened as this terrorist was involved in both.
India cannot pay the extortion money of 2 billions per annum like USA for pak to act against terrorists. Therefore we have to look for permanent alternative solutions.

Honest to God the whole thing is a Joke.

Pakistan has reacted to India for launching the new nuclear submarine and would destabilize the region.

Honestly Pakistan can send 10 gunmen and hold India for ransom for weeks together. They need nuclear warheads and submarine.

The political will of the Indian people doesnot exist. They seem to be enamoured by the freebie the politician doles out rather than finding the right candidate.

The change has to happen from the people and NOT by the politicians. If not India will be in a bigger mess than it is right now.

As somebody pointed out before that if Kasab is a gunman then 911 was a pilot error.
