PIK Posted September 29, 2012 Report Posted September 29, 2012 I suspect he will be released shorly and the city of TO will give him a hero's welcome, parade and all. Then I imagine the CBC will give him his own show or he will be running for the NDP in the next federal eletion. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/story/2012/09/29/omar-khadr-repatriation.html Quote Toronto, like a roach motel in the middle of a pretty living room.

eyeball Posted September 29, 2012 Report Posted September 29, 2012 I expect arguing over Khadr's case and fate will continue to irreparably divide Canadians and we'll getting be in each other's faces even more. I'm glad he's home, maybe now he'll finally get a chance at some justice. Maybe. Quote A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.
Michael Hardner Posted September 29, 2012 Report Posted September 29, 2012 Was it a leftist who started this thread ? What is the purpose of this thread other than bringing more attention to this person ? Does anybody else see the paradox of starting a thread like this proclaiming that the left will be making a hero of this person 'soon' ? Why trump these things up to be more than they are ?

Moonbox Posted September 29, 2012 Report Posted September 29, 2012 Pretty sure the left won't make a martyr out of him. Maybe they'll criticize the conservatives for how he was handled (poorly) but even the NDP isn't dumb enough to support some kid who tossed a grenade at some US soldiers.

Mr.Canada Posted September 29, 2012 Report Posted September 29, 2012 After he is released he will become a folk hero to other Islamists and will tour mosques doing speaking events as an inspiration to the newer generation of lsamists.

Guest American Woman Posted September 29, 2012 Report Posted September 29, 2012 Just curious - does anyone know if he will ever be able to (legally) leave the country once he is released from prison? Quote
Signals.Cpl Posted September 29, 2012 Report Posted September 29, 2012 Just curious - does anyone know if he will ever be able to (legally) leave the country once he is released from prison? I would hope so, maybe he will go to another war zone and someone will finish him off... Quote Hope for the Best, Prepare for the Worst
eyeball Posted September 29, 2012 Report Posted September 29, 2012 (edited) But, who? I'm not surprised that supporters of Canada's vendetta against Omar Khadr are so quick to give a little nod and a wink towards sexual abuse in our justicevengeance system too.

I think you'll find prison sex in EVERY country, Mr eyeballs. Ten+ years is a while to wait...but, I'm sure ol' Omar merely read his Koran since he's a good Muslim according to his family and friends. Quote Nothing cracks a turtle like Leon Uris.

I can't help but wonder if he will be able to go back and forth between Afghanistan and/or Pakistan et al upon his release - or if he will be under some sort of restriction, considering his crime.

He serves his sentence. Not that interesting. Like I said ,that is very leftist of you. We will have to wait and see , and I am putting my money on that he will be made a hero by the left. Just wait for the day he is released, it will be very intertesting. So how long before he is released, 3-6 months or less? Or can we make stay in jail for a couple more decades.

That's right, Omar's treatment has a lot more to do with issues between the governed and government - the top and bottom or libertarian vs authoritarian. As for the issues between the left and right, I'm more interested in knowing why so much more of the right is so much more supportive of authority. I take more issue with that every day because I think it's such a dangerous threatening trend. Quote A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.
