This proves that asking a question is not an allegation. Good fer you Morris. One more thing... what terrorists are you asserting about?

Yer a strange man Morris. Quotes by Morris.... : :lol:lol: "Prove either of those. Nicky was unable to prove the first... you cannot prove the second and that last part of your asswertion is demonstarbably false." "You are correct They are very clear. No prove the terrorists are cobered by the 3rd convention."

More scurrilous lies.

Speaking of falsehoods. Now run along and read up on Article 4 of the GC.

Yes he was.

Have you read article 4 of the GC? Do you need any help? Oh yes...one more thing....you have made several references to terrorists...I asked you before but you refused to answer my question ie.... what terrorists?

Clearly it means little to you. Be careful about criticizing typos Morris. Its a last resort and you dont want to be in that mode just yet...soon perhaps but not yet...

Perhaps one day...but perhaps not... you might learnt to read. It was a valid question and not a condemnation. Whats the matter with you Morris?

I never lie nor was I mistaken. Do some reading on the subject and you might learn sumpthin' Once you learn the difference between an assertion and asking a question... you can file that too... What terrorists? Perhaps you should read Article 4 of the GC. Given that you called me "slimey" in an earlier post.... I can safely say that I definitely emulated you to perfection.

Really? Not to the guy receiving the beating/torture/etc. First..you did play that card. Second, yer playing it again..... Surely you arent saying subsequent CDC chiefs arent capable of doing it again are you? Tell me you jest. By the time one gets to the top of the food chain, these guys are as much a politician as they are military guys. Pretty much in the way a beating of two Somalis translated into an inquiry of what transpired in the bowels of the offices occupied by the top brass. One not need to be a member of the military to understand this stuff. Shit happens and when it does, one should find a way to stop it from happening again before it becomes an even a bigger pile of shit. NOTE: Please observe that my condemnation has been limited to only the top brass and that you shouldnt take my concerns quite so personal. Think of it this way...I was a senior manager in a Canadian Chartered Bank. Public criticism (some of it deserved) of my President &/or CEO was never seen by me as a slight on us grunt employees. Cheers,

Surely you knew I was merely doing what you do as a past time.... ie. being facetious with you. We both know about Canadian authorities being complicit in helping a Canadian to be shipped off to Syria and tortured. Surely you must know about that. It cost the tax payers a lot of moola. It seems that Canada has a habit of looking the other way on this stuff. First..given that you cant read..I will help you. They were questions...not assertions. Second, I believe another poster stated that it will be proven one way or the other just as soon as the government stops hiding the documents and opens the books (so to speak) and answer questions while under oath. Third, I'll let you do the hunting for the citations you are asserting dont exist. The GC is very clear on the handling of detainees. If by my emulating your style of communicating with other posters is deemed by you as being slimey... perhaps you should stop doing that.

Do you even know what you are bitching about? You asked about my assertions....I asked what assertions? Cant you read?

My assertions? About you? There is a body of evidence on that topic. What other assertions would you be referring to Morris?

Hell. You dont even know what you are arguing about anymore. You are simply using this to hurl your usual insults at posters. You have an ugly history of that.

Not to the person on the receiving end... You must have missed the buzz over the matter of Canada only addressing the issue of detainee torture as late as 2007. If true, its either willful indifference or incompetence that it took so long to address this. I would never kid you about General Boyle being complicit in altering documents. I dont hold an entire organization to task. Just the leaders. So should you. Truth Duty Honour. First, I'm not painting everyone. Surely you must know that by now. I'm asking that our leaders (government and military) be held to the highest of standards. Please dont play that card.."you werent in the military so you cant possibly understand". It simply doent work. Lets just say that I am close to a retired Col. and we both share the same view on this issue. Truth Duty Honour. We expect it from our soldiers and I expect it from the top brass. There is sufficient probable cause that they need closer inspection.

I dont need to support anything. Its already covered by the GC. You can nitpick all you want about what is in paragraph 4; sub section 3; article 7; but at the end of the day, the issue is all about Canada either willfully ingoring the Convention and now are trying to mitigate their transgression OR perhaps they simply werent doing their duty bound requirement regarding the hand-off of prisoners. In either case, there is enough stuff on the table that warrents a public inquiry in the same fashion as was done for the Somalia Inquiry. I smell a cover up as was done back in '93.

Why would Canada issue a citation acknowledging the 3rd & 4th convention regarding prisoner/datainees? Makes no sense. We've aready signed on to it.

I dont expect anything from you other than your boorish behaviour... The issue of detainee treatment is quite clear in the Geneva Conventions....it definitely excludes torture.

They do apply. Live with it.

Stick with it Morris. One day you will.

Your computer must have crashed when it was explained to you. You must still be running under Windows Vista.

This isnt about Toronto policemen. Its about Canada's military and their alleged misconduct regarding the handling of prisoners/detainees. There is historical precidence that Canada's top military brass have attempted to cover up military misconduct. Only an Inquiry will enable us to get to the bottom of it. I understand that you'd personally would prefer to sweep it under the carpet. Many of us Canadians feel otherwise. It doesnt make us wrong. Only an Inquiry will get past the smoke and mirrors. A DND chief has used smoke and mirrors before. I dont trust them to be forthright. Once one reaches that lofty position they are as much a politician as they are military. Up to now, the reports from the "watchers" have been crapped on by the government. Ergo, I suggest that the Red Cross reports, etc., were not given ANY focus.

Exactly what legislation would you have passed as a Conservative and can you please advise if Harper has any such legislation in his plans?

That just about sums it up...

Must be a typo. I think you mant to type "I am the only one..."
