Is Swapping Terrorists for Hostages an Encouragement to Plane-Hijackers?

Yes swapping will increase their encouragement there is no doubt in it.

What I think is to stop these bloody terrorist to ever do such activity is by "fast shot" method, that is to give no mercy to any terrorist. Means If army catches any terrorist at the cost of their life, then their is no justice in providing life for years to these bloody terrorist and waste our hard earned tax paid money on them. Its better to get all information from them as soon as possible and then send them to hell.

I damn sure this will not only stop their courage to hijack any plane, but also their evil mind to do such activity.

I don't think anybody ever wants to take a stake in killing people. There is no way we can save the hostages once they are hijacked. The only way doing this is to kill a terrorist as soon as he is used to get some information. By this there may not be any activity of hijacking, but no doubt a new issue arises.

In my point of view when a terrorist found guilty, he should be executed as soon as possible so that the condition for exchanging of hostages would never come in future. But, as India is a soft nation where hearing of any case takes many years to give a firm decision. This is the reason why Kasab still enjoying in jail.

Keeping a terrorist for a long time is definitely encouraging further plane hijacks. & at that time we will have no choice but to fulfill all their demands. Because we cant negotiate when hundreds of lives of our people are in stake.

So to avoid such kind of hijacking terrorists should be given capital punishment as soon as possible. Another thing is to make security as tight as possible.

I don't quiet agree with suman. The reason why ajmal kasab was taken and reatined in the cusotdy for so long because pakistan wants proof that terrorism is evolving form their soil. If terrorists are hanged to death as soon as they are caught then India will not be able to accumulate much evidence against pakistan. And until that these high jacking issues will keep popping up because India has not been able to put sufficient amount of pressure on pakistan in the international arena.

YES... Swapping Terrorists for hostages an encouragement to plane-hijackers because terrorists know very well that India is a soft hearted county and their Law is not to much harsh and they never punish terrorists shortly, therefore terrorists take advantage of our kindlyness and thats why they doing all this stuff.

Exchange of terrorists/militants for people is not good, but view from the angle of hostages. They weren't involved in the crime yet they were captured by barbarians. So, the best way could be to conduct a fast and impartial trial once a militant is nabbed and if proved guilty, hang him immediately.

Hello everybody. I think it as an encouragement for hijackers. As some of my friends said, the terrorist must be hanged as soon as possible after collecting adequate info from him. Also the security checks must be strict or security level must be high. One of my friends mentioned above to allow security guards in the plane. But who knows if the security guard in the plane is also a part of the terrorist team. You may also come up with the point that this may happen at the airport too. But that's why we are focussing on increasing levels of security.

Exchanging jailed terrorists with hostages could be argued both ways. Each one has their point of view. Both are neither right nor wrong. But the consequence is that these terrorists (murders) will definitely kill many more innocent people in near future. That means we are saving known lives of hostages at the expense of many more unknown lives in near future. Also, think about soldiers or policemen who lost their lives for arresting these jailed terrorists. I don't think any Government has that power. Therefore dealing with terrorists is an issue but jailed terrorists should never be released.

Nope.. I dont think that encourages terrorists to do such things and even if it happens, still no one has right to play with other's life. If swapping terrorists can save life of hostages then it should be done. And i totally disagree with the fact that a terrorist after being released can kill more people.

I thinks the kind of policy which India has adopted againt terrorism and terrorist is not working properly. India needs quick judgement and hang all terrorists as sonn as they are found guilty not like kasab's case. He is still enjoying even after killing hundred's of innocents. If no terrorists are in custody then the question of swapping does'nt arise. India needs to change thier policies, only then after we can hope of decrease in such activities.
