#1 My absolute favorite tee-shirt: "We should forgive our enemies - right after they are taken out back and shot..."

#2 And just how many people did ol' Mohammad Afzal Guru kill over his career as a terrorist? I'm sure Omar Abdullah was against those killings, too, wasn't he? Did that help any? Neither is this piece of arrogant posturing. Hang him. Recidivism is virtually zero for hanged murderers, something the US needs to reconsider strongly.

#3 It isn't "arrogant posturing" in expressing concern that hanging this killer might cause problems in HK like what happened 26 years ago.

That said, IMHO, India should say "noted", hang Guru anyway, while making preparations to deal with the Pak-sponsored blowback.
