The problem with communists like Mr. Bidwai is that their hearts are full with "human rights" when it comes to defending terrorists like Afzal or tyrants like Saddam. They dont even shed crocodile's tears, let alone voice concerns when innocents get persecuted whether in kashmir or bangladesh or in kurdistan. When the persecution counts to millions, no one cares about "fair trial" - just hang'em.

I agree. I did not find any writing from this so called intellectual when thousands died on 9/11 attack.

Well said Sujoy...
Also Saddam was hanged by the Iraqi justice system, however imperfect it might be. It was proven beyond reasonable doubt that he had commited some 180 counts of first degree murder and justice was done promptly(unlike in India for Afzal). The millions others he killed did not even need to be factored in this although I think they should have done that just for the records.
