Army Guy Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 The West is also invited to this meeting. eventually, but i won't have as much to attone for as our Taliban friends.... Quote We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have now done so much for so long with so little, we are now capable of doing anything with nothing.

Keepitsimple Posted May 8, 2009 Author Report Posted May 8, 2009 Let's God be the judge. He is......and although I may be a little biased.....I think God might be a little more upset with those who chop off heads and other body parts, who would massacre their own innocent people in any attempt to kill "the Infidels", who won't let women have an education, and who would kill anyone who is seen to insult "their" God.

benny Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 I find childish, Canada's decision to appeal the court's decision. Quote
Radsickle Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 Army Guy - the hand-wringers never listen.......their shallow, narrow view is "there's no proof that he threw the grenade". The grenade is but a tiny part of the insidious and callous schemes that he and his Al Qaeda buddies perpetrated. I feel for you Army Guy, as I do for all our troops. Army Guy, I hope you understand that I'm not `narrow' and I honestly don't know what the Simple guy feels, other than hate. Quote
Radsickle Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 (edited) They did that, and he is a terrorist not a dangerous enemy....but a plain terrorist with ties to Bin Ladin chain of command....makes him kind of special... There's the rub, eh? His Dad and Mr. Bin Laden were buddies.... is that why Canada's ignoring a kid's rights? Edited May 9, 2009 by Radsickle Quote
Radsickle Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 Where he is, he is a martyr and martyrdom is inspiring terrorist vocations. This is my biggest worry too; by not respecting Mr. Khadr's rights, we are losing `hearts n' minds' globally. We should be following our democratic process (if we truly believe in it). Quote
Radsickle Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 (edited) and when he gets out nobody will even remember who he is, or what he stood for....maybe some old Taliban will write a book about him.....but he will inspire no one... sir, you are so wrong. Edited May 9, 2009 by Radsickle Quote
Radsickle Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 Hopefully, it will be the story that he was unable to avenge his father's death. Canada didn't kill his Dad and he probably won't be allowed in the US ever again. What sort of `avenging' are you imagining? I've thought about this too and it seems the longer we leave him there, the more legitimately angry he'll be with Canada. Mr. Harper's decision today was dumb. Quote

We should be following our democratic process (if we truly believe in it). What terrorists understand better than democratic nations is that to know if we truly believe in something, we have to ask ourselves: are we willing to give our lives for it. Quote
Oleg Bach Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 Christians 100 - Islamic....Zero - on with the crusdade! Quote
Radsickle Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 There would be more truth and hope if you simply stick to the usual motto: this curse (put Islam here) was sent by God to Christians for their sins. :lol: Quote
Oleg Bach Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 :lol: Take the two originals - Mohamid and the Christ...Mohamid married a rich old widow and decided to convert people by force--- first thing he did was raise an army - Jesus used intellect and sweet persuasion - one culture built an empire based on love - the other build an empire based on fear - loathing - violence and money...or should I say oil. As I said before if you were to be tried for a crime would you rather have it done in Saudi Arabia - or Canada? I rest my case.. Quote
benny Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 If the US justice system is allowed to condemn Omar Khadr to death, only those ready to risk their lives to save Khadr can be called leaders/founders. Quote
noahbody Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 Canada didn't kill his Dad and he probably won't be allowed in the US ever again. Canada is a target of Al Queda for one thing. Maybe he'll strap on a bomb to make Uncle Osama proud. He might even be requested to do so. If he is, do you think he'd say 'no.'? What sort of `avenging' are you imagining? It's not uncommon to want to avenge the death of a family member. When you consider he was raised to blow himself up for Allah, he's capable of plenty. I've thought about this too and it seems the longer we leave him there, the more legitimately angry he'll be with Canada. Oh, we'd better let him out then, if he's going to be mad. Mr. Harper's decision today was dumb. It wouldn't surprise me if you believe Omar should be set free and allowed to become a commercial pilot. My guess is that he'll be tried in the States and he won't be freed until after the war is over. Quote

Dude, that's not going to happen. Neither the execution nor the `dramatic rescue'. Omar's fate is somewhere in between. Quote

Radsickle Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 It wouldn't surprise me if you believe Omar should be set free and allowed to become a commercial pilot. I've stated over and over again in these forums that I think he should be put on trial in Canada. For you to suggest otherwise is manipulative, Biatch. Quote
benny Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 Dude, that's not going to happen. Neither the execution nor the `dramatic rescue'. Omar's fate is somewhere in between. Then, if the US justice system is allowing Omar Khadr to go too far into a hunger strike, only those ready to risk their lives to save Khadr can be called leaders/founders. Quote
noahbody Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 Then, if the US justice system is allowing Omar Khadr to go too far into a hunger strike, only those ready to risk their lives to save Khadr can be called leaders/founders. I hereby nominate you for Troll of the Year. Quote

For you to suggest otherwise is manipulative, Biatch. Why not let Omar choose between standing trial in Afghanistan with assurances he won't face the death penalty or being detained in either the US or Canada until the time that the war is over? Quote

Oh, yea. We'll unlock his cell for the victory parade... Define "over". Quote
Leafless Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 Why not let Omar choose between standing trial in Afghanistan with assurances he won't face the death penalty or being detained in either the US or Canada until the time that the war is over? Why even suggest any choice for this U.S. prisoner? The war is still ongoing and the U.S. reserves the right to deal with this prisoner the way they see fit according to their laws. They have an obligation to their citizens to do this. Quote

Our neighbours have a greater obligation to democracy and the rule of law than any war-mongerer's wishes. It is Canada who will look bad at the end of this. Quote
