@queerbait I remember you were supporting US in some other thread for upholding their law & justice, now you know even they apply law & justice selectively as per their interest. Even US consulates in India can be in legal problem if we strictly go by the book. They handled the case of foreign diplomat with arrogance, not with diplomacy.
You know what happens in this forum too many times, you support a notion partially and then people jump all over you,accuse you , insult you and in your defense you find yourself supporting it completely and taking a stand that you really don't believe in. T be clear My stand on this issue was/is, U.S treated our diplomat badly and did not show enough respect, but as far as arrest was concerned they were within their rights.Basically, all the people in the forum blaming the maid, U.S got me angry as if the diplomat had done nothing wrong.Regarding this article, i truly believe that international law should be applied equally and not selectively,A good ex would be Raymond Davis case where he should have been prosecuted.And talking about applying rules for U.S consulate, yes we should do that if we find them committing serious offence and if they have only consular immunity.
