What did we achieve in keeping Kasab alive for so many days?
When the press was recently attacked by terrorist at the Charlie Hebdo newspaper, France, I am sure all of us thought that at least the Press used to be safe from such attacks, now even they aren’t safe anymore. My take is terrorists thrive on the Press’s reporting of their attacks and atrocities world-wide, for without appropriate coverage and people all over the world knowing about it, what’s the point of any such attack. Their glorified egos probably swell further when they see their self-proclaimed acts of courage get media limelight. If media world over, decides to not report any more terrorist activities, probably half of these will stop on their own. Anyway, what pleased me was the quick reaction of French police and quick justice (at least I see it that way) within 3 days. When a country or its people are terrorized, then sending a strong signal that we will not tolerate this, is a must. This reminded me of the 26/11 attack and the capture of Kasab. He was the only terror...
