Je suis Omar Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 (edited) What army was Khadr a soldier of? This is a moot question. Afghanistan was illegally invaded by the USA. The USA was there as an invading horde of war criminals and terrorists. What would that make those who support the USA in their illegal invasion?

GostHacked Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 He was an illegal combatant, but I guess all child soldiers, by definition, are illegal combatants. The correct term the US uses is 'enemy combatant'. Which is something that is not recognized or talked about in UN conventions. By that alone, the US is not playing by many international law in which it helped set up.

On Guard for Thee Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Which one? There are many, which one would you like..you should do your own research and perhaps educate yourself. Here is a hint though, go look at article 51. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Guard for Thee Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Sure, a child murderer. Almost 16. A child...at least you get that. Imprisoned and tortured in an illegal prison, convicted of a crime dreamed up 4 years after his incarceration, even though it turns out there were any doubts cast on his actual actions in the event, cast by personnel actually on sight at the time. Suck up that kool aid if you wish. Luckily cooler heads have prevailed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A child whos housing complex came under attack in a firefight by an invading army in an illegal war.. There is no absolute proof of what he did. He was waterboarded in Gitmo, which was an illegal prison. Maybe try reading and understanding article 51 as I suggest as to why the invasion was illegal for starters before you start putting words into NATO countries mouths.

Je suis Omar Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 serving in a nato approved mission. . NATO is no different than the combination of Germany, Japan, Italy, ... . War crimes are war crimes and terrorism is terrorism. Aligning oneself with the strongest group of gangsters is hardly the mark of a moral individual.

On Guard for Thee Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Gee...at this rate, Khadr will be recognized as a Canadian war hero deserving of the Victoria Cross. I doubt that, but he will be a long standing icon of how really wonky the US legal system became uder the guidance of the likes of Bush, Cheney, et al. Sorry about your choices.

As I've already proven, somebody 16 or younger can be tried as an adult. A 15 or 16 year old knows that murder is wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyeball Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Yes but the SCC has declared that Omar Khadr is not an adult. Check...mate in another court case or two.

I think we all know that some states in certain cases will prosecute minors as adults, so there was nothing much to prove. This is about Khadr. Do you think waterboarding him should be legal as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
