Convicted by who? America touts itself as a country that believes in the rule of law. Gitmo under Bush certainly made a mockery of that.

Nobody has rights in Gitmo, at least according to Bush and the kangaroo court military commission, which of course your own high court declared illegal. But I guess when you worship Bush you have to uphold whatever garbage he gets up to.

So you strip away peoples rights and then try to say it's someone else's "incompetence". How American! At least least Obama showed the good sense to know what was right but of course he had the pentagon and the knuckledraggers in congress against him. Must be a few hundred million a year eh?

Maybe stop opening illegal prisons and then torturing child soldiers into confessing to things. Speaking of saving big money, how much did you piss away on Gitmo? I think they referred to Gitmo prisoners as six million dollar men.

Kinda sounds like you are. Maybe look up what your SC said about Gitmo and you'll part of the reason we had to pay.

The legal precedent has been set for such illegal denial of rights. That's why he got what he got. Don't let idiots like Bush open illegal prisons like Gitmo and you wont have to fret.

I think 10 years of illegal imprisonment warrants more than a dollar.

Perhaps because it was done illegally, according to our courts, and yours.

Looked at any before/after pictures of Syria lately? http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/aleppo-chilling-photos-show-how-the-ancient-city-has-changed-since-the-syrian-conflict-started-a7362796.html

Again I think I'll go with what the courts have found.

I confess too, to having taken off one day from an airport in northern Haiti (Gonaive) heading north over Cuba. I spoke to my co and I said "lets go right over Gitmo" (which was a violation of air regs as the US military had designated it restricted airspace) My ire was based on the idea that how can the US lease some land, open a prison on it, and say US law doesn't apply because it's not actually US soil, but then say they can apply US law to the airspace over it. I recall both of my middle fingers were twitching as we went by. I guess we are lucky we didn't get shot down.

Any substantive comments or is skittles all ya got?

And that right there, if you had any knowledge of law, you would know is illegal. That would be like you hiring a lawyer because you had a charge against you, and having that lawyer divulge to the crown prosecutor what you said in confidence.

We can only provide you with the facts. If you can't comprehend, or don't want to accept, them that is up to you.

A little starter for you. http://www.scc-csc.ca/case-dossier/info/sum-som-eng.aspx?cas=33289

Been cited on here numerous times. I'm busy right now but it won't take you long to google it.

You were at Gitmo wehre ya? I think not. I think I'll take the word of the SCC and SCOTUS.

They seem to avoid articles that point out those details.

A little name calling make ya feel better?

Not anymore.

Then you don't throw citizens in jail for years, deny them legal council, and then coerce them into dubious confessions.

I thought the righty types were supposed to be all about the rule of law.

Harper fought this every step of the way, ad even after he was released from Gitmo Harper tried to keep him in jail here. https://ipolitics.ca/2017/07/11/whos-to-blame-for-the-khadr-payout-stephen-harper-mostly/

That would be the ones the SC ruled on 2010

Well you're the resident snowflake expert. I guess Trump is kinda like the head snowflake eh? How often did he stick his foot in his mouth in a 30 hour visit to France?
