Borg Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 Judge has spoken - Canuck media gets away with murder at home and thinks they can do it on the road as well. Different ball park - tougher rules - so tough tittie. In the end it does not matter what happened some time ago - what matters is what happens now. They violated the rules of the game and got tossed - rightly so. Media hounds need a kick in the nuts now and then to keep them honest - which most are not. Leave that traitor down there - we do not need him or any of his family in this country. Borg Quote
Moonbox Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 Leave that traitor down there - we do not need him or any of his family in this country. Agreed! Khadr has no business in Canada - a bunch of convenient Canadians with no interest in Canada at all other than the health care and protection it offers.

Guest American Woman Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 Four journalist were barred from Khadr's trial after what the miltary said they gave away an one of the guy's name that questioned Khadr but his name had already been printed in the news a few years ago. http://www.politico.com/blogs/joshgerstein/0510/Four_journos_banned_from_Gitmo_trial.html As the article you cited points out, his identity was protected at the trial, and the rules of the trial are the rules that the journalists should have abided by. The article also says the four news outlets in question aren't barred, they are allowed to send other journalists to cover the trial. Quote
