I thought that Harper, as our Prime Minister, had some responsibility to our citizens, rather than just sucking up to George W. Bush. A young man, a Canadian, by the name of Omar Khadr is being tortured and denied human rights at Guantanamo Bay (GITMO). There are allegations against him, but no evidence or proof.
Have we not learned from the Arar case? Why is our Prime Minister (or Bush's Prime Minion) so subservient to the Republican President? Even Republican Presidential candidate John McCain gave indication that the US is open to talking in the case of Khadr, but it has met with total silence from Harper. Apparently Harper's bosses are Bush and Cheney and Canadians are secondary, just an annoyance to deal with at election time. A sad situation indeed.
Thus people must not travel outside of Canada as long as Harper the Prime Minion is around, because you may never make it back. Prime Minion will need Bush's approval before even considering to help you.
John McCain NEVER said that the USA will give up Khadr if asked.
ReplyDeleteThat is nothing but left wing Toronto Star garbage.
Point me to the link where any American official said that Khadr will be returned if asked.
Bet you can't.
Johnathon, man you have problems. If someone says he/she is open to talk, it is opening the door then it is up to the other party to go for it. But not try at all shows stupidity and indifference.
ReplyDeleteIn case of Arar there was a lot of pressure and we negotiated and got him out of the torture chambers in Syria.
John McCain is not anybody yet.
ReplyDeleteSO to use John McCain as a "poster boy" for the return of Omar Khadr is very immature.
Omar Khadr is finished.
Do you really think Harper or Bush is going to allow him to come back to Canada for a "hero's" welcome?
The guy would be a celebrity for you and your anti-American friends.
I'm pretty sure you would even go to the "pride" parade for Omar Khadr.
I have sent emails to Harper and Bush insisting that Khadr be out to death by electric chair or be jailed for life.
He deserves nothing else for killing that American.
Ledaro, seeing you're Canadian, you should be ashamed that Khadr took up arms against a mission in which Canadians are invloved.
But since your jealous of the USA, you take Khadr's side and consider him a hero.
Death to Omar Khadr, the sooner the better.
Johnathon, your rant does deserve a response.
ReplyDeleteWhat is a bigger problem for Canada.
ReplyDeleteOmar Khadr?
Or that Sihk in BC who got released from jail even though he killed over 300 people in the Air India bombing.
You let wing retards need to get your priorities straight.
Khadr is nothing compared to all the victims of crime in Canada who get no justice.
Canada's justice system is laughed about all over the world.
Johnathon, I used to have some respect for you but after your rants and rudeness it is all gone.
ReplyDeleteIf being rude and ranter makes you happy then be it as long as you do not cause harm to others when you're going around in such a daze of silliness.
