hey wulf... how do you reconcile your hatred for Muslims... all Muslims as you state... with Canada's participation in so-called Afghanistan "nation building" efforts? Or does your definition of "nation building" also include conversion to "enter your preferred non-Islamic religion here"? :lol:

Who said we are nation building?? right now were just killing those filthy Talibani's and turning

them into crispy critters....once that is done we rebuild!

Excellent reminder.....if it was good enough for Germans or Japanese during WW2, it's good enough for the Taliban.

To view this great disconnect in the young and foolish is astouding..such immaturity - Maybe they should sit in a prison camp like my parents did..maybe they should be put in a position of kill or be killed like my father did - Maybe these arm chair critics that call a dead person a "crispy citter" should be tossed back in time and made to defend Stalingrad...or maybe - Maybe these people that sit doing nothing and waiting for their stocks to flip - should dig a hole..plant a tree - or maybe stand in that hole while someone judges them fit to live or die - stand and lose and fall over as some robot like themselves empties their scull of grey matter with a projectile paid for by them - paid for by their "investment" .......wait till it all turns to shit - They believe that it can not happen here - but it's possible that hell might just visit North American like it did the rest of the world - then let them talk tough while defending their lives....we in the west are live in fairy land.

You have the highest number of incarcerated people on the planet - as we do - These prisoners are just those captured in a war that is has been raging now for 30 years - What? Did you think that I did not notice? Imagine if the prisons were emptied - after all - a lot of effort has been put into these "prisoners" to make them insane - The day might come that once the dinner is ready the oven doors will be opened an out the monsters come...

For some reason you can t seem to separate Muslim EXTREMISTS from a Muslim...............i have no problem with ANYONE who comes to Canada that wants to live and assimulate into our culture...but if you are a muslim extremist and bring your hatred to Canada then you should be given the boot and sent packing .............such is the case with Omar and his family who have stated their hatred for the West and Canada..............why can t you seem to grasp the concept? let me guess your a bleeding heart Liberal?...........if so no explantation is warranted... ;)

unlike the Harper Conservatives, unlike yourself, I don't categorize Canadians... a Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian. You've also made no such prior qualifications to your continued Muslim bashing in your efforts to directly, and by inference, broadly associate all Muslims - particularly Muslim immigrants to Canada - with the actions of fundamental extremists.

as succinctly stated by the Canadian Bar Association:

The case for Mr. Khadr’s repatriation to Canada is plain. He was 15 years old when he was apprehended in Afghanistan. He has not been fully afforded the basic entitlements of due process under the Rule of Law, such as the right to counsel and the right to know the case against him, nor has he been afforded any process that takes into account his unique status as a minor. He has been detained in the general population of detainees in Guantanamo Bay, without any physical, psychological or educational services that would normally be afforded a minor under the terms of the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child on the Involvement of Children in Armed Conflict.

Mr. Khadr has already spent six years in pre-trial custody. The U.S. has had ample opportunity to bring its processes into compliance with the tenets of the Rule of Law and its international obligations, and to try him.

Once Mr. Khadr is repatriated, it will be up to officials in the Canadian justice system to conduct an independent assessment of admissible evidence against him, to determine whether this evidence supports charges under Canadian law, and if so, whether he should be tried as an adult or a child. Because of the secrecy and allegations of torture that have plagued the U.S. proceedings to date, the best chance to fairly and openly assess Mr. Khardr’s criminal culpability may in fact be in Canadian proceedings.

the repatriation of Khadr to Canada - what are the Harper Conservatives afraid of... what is wulf42 afraid of?

Harperites are afraid that if the kid comes back he will talk at length with media. That he may expose the tormenting of thousands by the Cheneyites...and that will expose Harper for being a goon and a henchmen of the sadistic corporate American elite. Harper would not like that.. :lol: That in time all of Canada will know that all we have sitting in the big chair in Ottawa is someone much worse than Ignatieff could ever be - That Iggy might be an international elitist - but Harper and the boys are just rich rubes that used to blow up frogs with fire crackers and tormented the neighbours cat - and have graduated to bigger and more thrilling sadistic indulgences! :lol:

I am surprised that Khdar is still alive - You would assume that he would have hung himself by now --- maybe they can give him a few million bucks and he will keep his mouth shut about what he knows and will not embarrass our leaders for sucking up to the Yanks in the most dreadful of ways .....maybe he can come back to Canada and go snow boarding - and in the summer - water boarding...... :lol: It's stunning that grown men like Harper are afraid of this former boy..who is now a man and has figured out our system - maybe Khdar can run for Prime Minister - at least he is baptized by fire ....our present leaders are baptized in .....well they are not baptized at all....Look at the Mike Bryant thing - great cowardice ---If a man can not defend himself with his fists when neccesary - No way in hell can he defend Canada... :lol:

I want him back...but in the same form the the Ferengi handle their dead. Vacuum desiccation followed by reduction to powder. Then we could sell-off Omar in 52 individual collectors discs post-mortum. Make sure to look for the Ferengi Seal of Dismemberment endorsed on the Ferengi Futures Exchange.

Yes i support that 100%!!!!

Mostly true but in all fairness, through that same period, we had terrorism in Ireland, Germany (Bader-Meinhoff), Japan (Red Brigade) and Spain (Basque separatists). Having said all that, each of them was a "local" presence with specific grievances.....not the rampant, kill anybody anywhere extremism that we have witnessed with radical Islam.

Exactly.........the Ira and others commit terrorism on a local level at a specific target! the Islamo's attack everything and anything and enjoying killing for the sake of killing!

Except for the ones that don't, of course.

My comments are only directed at radical Islam - which by any sane definition - is not Islam at all - it is a perversion of everything that all religions stand for - live and let live - love thy brother, etc. I do believe that for the most part, mainstream Islam is a religion of peace and tolerance......but unfortunately, the Koran can be callously perverted as a political and terroristic tool to manipulate the uneducated masses......and used by those unscrupulous, power-hungry few who simply hate the West because democracy removes their ability to enslave the masses.....the Taliban are a perfect example of how Islam can be perverted.

And none of them had the same level of viciousness as Muslim terrorism. The IRA would blow up an army jeep, maybe, or shoot a soldier, but when they placed bombs in civilian areas they virtually always called in a warning in advance so civilians wouldn't be killed.

Contrast that to driving a truck bomb into the middle of a market and blowing up a hundred women and kids.

tell me if you think these words, your words, “differentiate between the two”… and these words from just your most immediate recent posts:

“force their evil religion upon us”….. “the Islamo’s”….. “this shows how much of a "peaceful religion" Islam is”

is that the differentiation you speak to… the differentiation you claim to see?

sprinkling your invective language with derogatory claims/accusations against Liberals further highlights your ignorance/agenda. If nothing else – you need to recognize there is a very clear differentiation of another kind… liberalism does not equate to pacifism.

the repatriation of Khadr to Canada – what are you, and the Harper Conservatives, afraid of?

The case for Mr. Khadr’s repatriation to Canada is plain. He was 15 years old when he was apprehended in Afghanistan. He has not been fully afforded the basic entitlements of due process under the Rule of Law, such as the right to counsel and the right to know the case against him, nor has he been afforded any process that takes into account his unique status as a minor. He has been detained in the general population of detainees in Guantanamo Bay, without any physical, psychological or educational services that would normally be afforded a minor under the terms of the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child on the Involvement of Children in Armed Conflict.

Mr. Khadr has already spent six years in pre-trial custody. The U.S. has had ample opportunity to bring its processes into compliance with the tenets of the Rule of Law and its international obligations, and to try him.

Once Mr. Khadr is repatriated, it will be up to officials in the Canadian justice system to conduct an independent assessment of admissible evidence against him, to determine whether this evidence supports charges under Canadian law, and if so, whether he should be tried as an adult or a child. Because of the secrecy and allegations of torture that have plagued the U.S. proceedings to date, the best chance to fairly and openly assess Mr. Khardr’s criminal culpability may in fact be in Canadian proceedings.

Once again, you refuse to believe that there are two sides to this argument....Canadians are split on whether to bring him back and the Federal Court is not unanimous in their ruling - in fact it was 2-1 and as I've posted before. The charges against Khadr are serious ones - and they came about not through a bank robbery or a random crime - they were committed on a battlefield against an ally. As such, there is a very strong argument that this puts the Khadr situation in the realm of Foreign Affairs and the government's argument is that the courts cannot dictate or influence Foreign Affairs. The dissenting judge agreed and we'll now see what the Supreme Court says. This is not an ordinary case of a Canadian committing a crime in a foreign country. Let the process unfold.

"In my opinion, Canada has taken all necessary means at its disposal to protect Mr. Khadr during the whole period of his detention at Guantanamo Bay," Nadon wrote.

Nadon also agreed with the government's argument that O'Reilly went too far in placing the repatriation order.

"In my opinion, the remedy granted by (O'Reilly) exceeds the role of the Federal Court and is not within the power of the Court to grant," Nadon stated.

So if the Supreme Court is not unanimous, the government should ignore it?
