UK Judge: US Terror War Escalating Terrorist Activity

Indian-origin judge scolded the U.S. for its 'War on Terror' while delivering an address at a unique Baisakhi day event at the American embassy in London.

"One cannot ignore the view-- being constantly expressed now-- that an unfortunate and inevitable consequence... has been the escalation rather than the curtailment of terrorist activity," Justice Mota Singh, the first Asian judge in Britain, told a large gathering of Sikhs at the embassy. Also present was American cultural attach? Michael Macy-- a man soon to leave for New Delhi on a diplomatic posting.

The judge expressed concern at American Sikhs having been targeted for violent attacks, post Sept. 11, 2001.
