Kasab deserves death the most brutal death that is imaginable but more importantly he deserves humiliation … along with the masterminds behind the Mumbai massacre… Pakistani authorities deserve humiliation…
Also, what springs into mind with such debates is the sheer diabolical stand of these human rights agencies which are springing up in India, are they retarded or are they sponsored by the ISI as well?

The death penalty awarded to Kasab is a foregone conclusion. It should have been done a long time ago. But the more important question is what about the people who send people like Kasab to kill innocent people, Unless those people who are the masterminds & actually responsible for such acts are brought to justice we will continue to have incidents like this.

The root of all this evil is the Pakistani establishment who are basically cowards to the hilt. They know that they can never win a conventional war with India , have resorted to such tactics. It is they who are the power behind Lakhwi & other like him who send people like Kasab to kill others.

The world community has to understand that unless the backbone of the Pakistani military establishment is not broken they will never allow peace in the world. It is unfortunate that western powers do not openly admit this fact & go on supplying weapons of destruction to the Pakistani establishment.

USA has borne the brunt of Pakistani double game in Afghanistan but still thy don’t acknowledge this fact. The actual root of terrorism is Pakistan.

Instead of hanging Kasab it would be wise to award him “Rigorous Life Imprisonment”.For the henious crime he has done he should be made to suffer for long time till his last breath and he is now “fortunate” to get “less painful” and “sudden” death by hanging.He had come to India as Jihadi, fully determined to die. So he will be pleased to die now.Better not to let him die but should be tortured and made to live in hell so that he will repent for the merciless killings of his victims and say to himself “O Allah it is better to die than to lead such a miserable life”

A documentary should be made on KASAB, and approved by UNESCO and should be circulated as in the curriculum in every school in each Nation.
It is to show what a two eyed, two armed and two legged creature with 206 bones and a HEART should never do.

It’s a waste of time to discuss Kasab’s hanging. He will go in appeal and his mercy petition will end up before the President. As per procedure, the President will pass it on to the Home Ministry, which will pass it on to the State government concerned (Maharashtra, in this case). It is only when the Chief Minister and the Home Minister of Maharashtra give the go-ahead that the hanging will go through.

Remember, Afzal Guru’s mercy petition is pending before Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dixit for nearly four years. Similarly Kasab’s mercy petition will remain on the table of the Maharashtra Chief Minister two or three years down the line.

At that time, the Assembly elections of 2014 will be round the corner and the Congree-NCP government will dither about Kasab’s hanging for fear of losing the Muslim vote.

Therefore, there is no point in wasting our breath over the hanging of Kasab. He will live — till vote bank politics lives in India. Jai Hind!

Does taking one life pay back 166 lives. Does sentenced Kasab solve terrorism?. Kasab should pay the price for what he did and should be sentence to hard labour for life. He should be remain and use for ivestigation to the root of terrorism. If he is use for information, his terrorism gang will go after his life and not us the good people.

If hanging is the answer to all wrongs done by Kasab, then hang all our politicians and home grown terrorists like Naxals,RSS etc as they too are responsible for disturbing peace.
