Re: Canadian comes home from Guantanamosaid by Ian1:Well I'm a Canadian citizen too, and I've never plead guilty to "murder in violation of the laws of war, attempted murder in violation of the laws of war, conspiracy, two counts of providing material support for terrorism and spying." Did he do that? It's a written fact that he *had* to confess to that to get the plea deal to be sent back home to Canada. It was in all the papers. Or have we forgotten that? |

Well, if you've avoided the blinders you are accusing others of wearing, please answer this question (she = his mother): said by NCRGuy:Please cite the specific offence you believe she committed. Not what you think should be illegal, or what you think she should be charged with -- a specific contravention of Canadian law you believe she committed. Note the word "specific" please. You never know.....perhaps you'll help others become "blinder free" as well. |

I guess organized crime in Canada should hop on this glaring loophole in our legal system and train an army of mercenaries to kill their rivals. Heck train them to kill anyone randomly who doesn't pay up or train them to rob banks. Heck one could train your kid to kill your boss or that brother in law who is a dick. That's right people of the world if you are a Canadian citizen you are free to spew your hate, commit treason and train your kids to kill with impunity. |

said by Kardinal:He didn't accept that plea bargain until he'd been in detention in either Bagram or Guantanamo bay for almost a third of his life. No matter how screwed up his 10-15 year span was, I shudder to think what he endured during the time in detainment would do to anyone regardless of their state when they went in. OK. Want to claim his guilty plea, conviction and sentence was unfair? Go ahead and do so. My point was that there are numerous things about Omar Khadr that make him quite unlike the "average" Canadian citizen. As such, there will indeed be conditions placed on him upon his release. Which I hope is much later rather than sooner. I have sympathy for Khadr, but a tempered amount. I knew right from wrong at 15. Was that because I didn't grow up in a brain-washed environment? Maybe. I don't know. Could make a genetic argument as well. Quite likely that evil, terrorist parents beget evil, terrorist kids through numerous mechanisms.... The problem is that the guy is messed up and possibly still dangerous, for whatever reasons. |

Too bad she felt that she couldn't get decent medical treatment and social assistance for her injured son, except in Canada. She's stated publically more than once that she would be happy if they all died martyrs. We should pity her, sending her 10 year old son off to be a child soldier. God forbid we hold her responsible. /sarcasm off |

Upon his release I would assume he will have to meet regularly with a parole officer of some sort, be denied complete freedom of travel, probably barred from entering the USA and a other countries, because of his criminal record he may not be allowed to hold certain public positions, be under some sort of surveillance, etc ... In other words he will not have the same rights and priviliges as most law abiding Canadians... |

I don't think anyone is taking issue with any particular governing party's actions on this. My own concern is whether our system of justice is adequate for dealing with domestic or repatriated terrorists. That question reflects a new global reality and is independent of Khadr's alleged innocence or his potential to be a continuing danger. |

why terrorism thrives in Canada? Toronto Star? Omar Khadr deserves parole, now that hes home » www.thestar.com/opinion/ ··· e-s-homeBy now Khadr has spent 10 years behind bars for his wrongdoing. Thats years longer than he would have spent in prison here, had he been convicted in a credible Canadian court of first-degree murder as a young offender. Now that he is finally back on Canadian soil, the corrections service and parole board should work toward freeing him at the earliest safe opportunity, subject to a rehabilitation program that includes psychiatric care, monitoring and schooling. He has already done excessive time for his misdeeds. |

After half a life of torture by the US, and denied his rights as a Canadian, why not?
Got a problem with that? Need a dozen years of torture in your life? Bet you wouldn't last a week. |

The question of his parole is entirely in the hands of the parole board, no matter what politicians, the media and those who think otherwise say. Those are the facts. |
