#3 Indian Penal Code

Meaningless, unless the Indian authorities rouse themselves to press charges. Do you think they'll do it, knowing the riots and bombings that will follow?

#5 maybe it's time to relook at our job/trades agreements that we have in place with India.
I for one don't want to buy goods or services from a country that has a court that "issued a fatwa, or religious decree, condemning to death the 12 artists who drew the controversial caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad"
We need to put pressure on them via their pocketbook since this seems to be the only thing they listen to.

#7 Indians have been looking a pictures such as that below - the UP state minister who called for the beheading of the cartoonists - with a mixture of shock and horror.

Is this India or is it Pakistan?
How far has talibanisation progressed in UP?
These are the elected leaders of UP - the most populous state in India?

To make sure it never happens again. Not in our country, not even in yours. That is, unless you hide military personnel or equipment in your tallest skyscrapers. Oh, and by the way, vis "fools", please get stuffed.
