PIK Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) A lot of evidence about him and his terrorists ways. Building bombs, translation, and killing. And the people he tried to kill saved his life. Edited May 11, 2015 by PIK Quote Toronto, like a roach motel in the middle of a pretty living room.
Black Dog Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 She made a ridiculous rhetorical claim that some people seem to want to defend. Was her claim about his beliefs WRT women's rights etc? Or was it an off-the-cuff observation about how he's comported himself during the process versus the vindictive and obsessive approach of the government? Quote

On Guard for Thee Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 A lot of evidence about him and his terrorists ways. Building bombs, translation, and killing. And the people he tried to kill saved his life. The people he allegedly tried to kill started a firefight in his compound. And after he was already seriously wounded in that event, shot him in the back. Quote
Black Dog Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 A lot of evidence about him and his terrorists ways. Building bombs, translation, and killing. And the people he tried to kill saved his life. What evidence? Like the confession obtained under extreme duress? The "eyewitnesses" who weren't actually on the scene? Really, tell us more about the evidence gleaned from a deeply flawed and possibly illegal process. Quote
Smallc Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 The people he allegedly tried to kill started a firefight in his compound. And after he was already seriously wounded in that event, shot him in the back. You mean the UN and NATO backed ISAF that he was illegally resisting? Quote

Boges Posted May 11, 2015 Author Report Posted May 11, 2015 No I mean the war in Afghanistan Are you allergic to Google? That's what the ISAF is. Quote
Keepitsimple Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 Add this act to her arrogance, rudeness and blabber-mouthing - and she clearly is not leadership material. Hopefully, this will be the death-knell for her participation in any debates.....which should never have been permitted in the first place. Quote Back to Basics
poochy Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 Yep, this is the same left wing fringe hero that immediately came to the defense of Jian Ghomeshi when he was first accused, it's a reflex of course, he was one of them, just like poor little Omar who was innocent and pure until the Americans showed up for no real reason, he's just a victim of global hegemony, just like all of the 'good' people of the fringe left, they are all victims too. So throwing the female victims of alleged violent sexual assault under the bus and defending an enemy combatant by describing him as better than those who serve this country, yea, she's a real class act, right along with the people who defend her. But maybe someone will come along and tell me what my opinion really is. Quote

On Guard for Thee Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 Yes? I think you might just find the war itself was the more illegal act than was whatever Khadr may have done. Quote
Argus Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 I dont know, but why are you asking me, you are the one making the one size fits all statements. Are you going to try to suggest there are fundamentalist Muslims with liberal social views??! Quote "A liberal is someone who claims to be open to all points of view — and then is surprised and offended to find there are other points of view.” William F Buckley
On Guard for Thee Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 Are you going to try to suggest there are fundamentalist Muslims with liberal social views??! Are you going to try and suggest there are not...you must know since somehow or other you know what Omar Khadr is thinking. Quote

I think that people that believe in the type of Islam that would call for a Jihad against the west wouldn't be a friend of openness and tolerance. He may have changed, sure. But likely out of necessity. Quote

And does it really matter WHY he changed...more to the point, you can dislike or distrust him all you want but we have the rule of law here and we cant pick and choose which ones we would prefer to be enforced.

Hal 9000 Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 Everything from the mickey mouse stuff to the paintings to the most recent interviews reeks of character management.

Topaz Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 So what you guys are saying that IF you join the military and go over and fight on foreign soil, that country can put you in jail for killing their soldiers????? Khadr was in a war, doing what his father told him to do. What about friendly fire?? As far as May, she shouldn't said what she said but I do believe , and correct me if I wrong, MP VanLoan, told NDP MP to F off in Parliament when he got angry and he had only to say "I'M Sorry".

dre Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 Even if Kadr DID do what he was accused of, its a huge stretch for people to call him a "terrorist". It really shows how useless that word has become, and how promiscuous the people that use it have become. Terrorism is the use of violence and fear... usually targetted at civilians... to achieve a political objective. This was a case of un-uniformed fighters fighting against soldiers belonging to an invading national army. It doesnt even come CLOSE to matching the definition of "terrorism". Quote I question things because I am human. And call no one my father who's no closer than a stranger
Big Guy Posted May 12, 2015 Report Posted May 12, 2015 Just a few years ago, this media/politician gala was "off the record" and had been that way for over 100 years. Reports had indicated some weird and wonderful things happening but without identifying anyone. It was only recently that for some reason, it was decided to make it "on the record". Then relationships in Ottawa are now exceptionally toxic and Harper was smart to stay away from this "group hug and roast". It has become yet another "gotcha" potential event and any politician attending has to be nuts! Too bad. I had the pleasant experience of attending one many, many years ago and it was a blast! An anonymous blast! Quote Note - For those expecting a response from Big Guy: I generally do not read or respond to posts longer then 300 words nor to parsed comments.
Smallc Posted May 12, 2015 Report Posted May 12, 2015 Not really, but lots of people have been fooled into thinking Iraq was the only illegal war of the day. Yeah, including the international bodies that authorized the war. Quote
