America delivers justice, will India deliver justice too?

The news about American assasination of Bin Laden is on the front page of newspapers and it is the main news in the Television channels. But how many realize that Bin Laden was a CIA creation during the years of 'USSR occupation of Afganistan'. Bin Laden was helpful to America in creating headache for USSR. Bin Laden was not a saint when America supported him 20 years ago in Afganistan. He was evil at that time too. He is a product of 'principless' American foriegn policy. One of America's 'Frankentein' is put to permanant rest at last.

The way in which the operation was executed is something to notice. The operation has be carried out in a very low-profile way especially for such a high value military target . It does not appear that they tried to capture him. After Osama was killed, he is buried with in 10 hours on the same day. May be there is a message in the way in which this operation was handled. (or) just America's PR exercise to be cautious that operation does not invoke sentiments in the Muslims. (or) May be they want to avoid the operation being shown to get recruits for Al Queda. We may not get the facts on what went on behind the scenes, but we may get fiction in the form of movie after few years :-) ( similar to the movie ''The Kingdom' )

Anyway there is no doubt, It is a significant step forward in "America's war" on terror. America has delivered justice, even if it means going half a world away.
Inspite of repeated deniel by Pakistan, the man behind the 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts ('Dawood Ibrahim' ) is believed to be in Pakistan. Hundreds of people who lost their lives in blast, even they deserve justice. Its my wish that India 'delivers' similar justice to the perpetuators of that heinous crime.
