10 will be hung to death... for rocking mumbai with bombs in 1993

Though a part of me, a big part, is cunningly happy that justice is being delivered to all those 100's of mumbaikars who were killed in blasts in 1993... my other part gets over me when I see the number increase from 3 initially to 10 today..

So far 10 people have been given the death sentence in the case. Killing 10 or more people is massacre even if it is by law... shouldn't we be instead putting our resources to just kill that fellow called D or Dawood ibrahim who masterminded the blasts.

Well, hearing all this news about the death sentence for his suparis / employees of 1993, D should be saying, "I myself wanted to get rid of old people.. and find new energitic youth to do the business of killing"

I somehow until now strongly believe that people who have no consideration for other people's lives, and can kill anybody for the sake of money or fame or religion, should just be hanged or removed from the face of the earth.

You can call me ridiculous, and so inconsiderate of the value of human life itself..
But I am thinking scientifically.. on Darwin's theory of survival.. "Survival of the fittest". If you don't fight terror, you might end up being a casualty of it.

You might ask.. why not think the gandhian way?
Gandhian values can fight only diplomacy and can be used only against people/issues that obey law.

Though I believe killing 10 people doesn't stop blasts like mumbai from happening again, I feel its the safest way to continue living.. at least until you have highly secured separate islands of prisons to detain such killers to a term of sentence without death. And with a country like India where the number of poor people are high, we should invest in developing resources for trade and for uplifting the poor, rather than investing in secure island prisons.
