Depends on the circumstances under which the crime committed.
It also depends on the person who judges the action.
The action of the Army in J&K is not a crime for the Indians, where as it is a crime for others.

...then it's still a crime. A crime is a crime - it's objective. "Patriotism" is subjective - what one considers patriotic, another might consider unpatriotic.
You can't justify a crime by hiding under the cloak of "patriotism" any more than you can justify a crime by hiding under the cloak of "religion".

What is your question?
In the name of "patriotism" we went to war, and the Jihadists are attacking us. In the name of patriotism we took Guantanamo, and yelled at the world "you're either with us, or against us"...

The term depends on which side you are. For the Indians, Afzal is a criminal. For Pak, he is Mujaheddin, a freedom fighter. The British considered Mahatma Gandhi as a criminal and for us, he is the father of the nation.
