You should read your own cites. The Supreme Court of the United States ruled in Boumediene v. Bush (2008) that the MCA constituted an unconstitutional encroachment of habeas corpus rights, and established jurisdiction for federal courts to hear petitions for habeas corpus from Guantanamo detainees tried under the Act.[20] As such, the provisions of MCA suspending Habeas Corpus are no longer in effect.

I don't know how anyone can type properly on some of the phones in use these days. Seems most people use their thumbs to type.

These goofs understand the implications perfectly well. They've been screaming about getting rid of these things on general principles for decades. Of course the only way to do that is to get rid of all the lefties. I'm pretty sure the charter allows for prosecution of murderers/terrorists.

Looking at Khadr's present day pictures and listening to his interviews, he seems pretty healthy to me. If he was sleep deprived it did not have a lasting effect on his well being. He's one up on the US soldier he killed. He's still alive and millions richer but the husband and father of two is dead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Charter is to guarantee security of the person I would think that prosecution of murderers, terrorists and other criminals is one way to ensure said security..

Did you have a problem with the UN telling us it was ok to invade Afghanistan? Of course you didn't. Just like you don't trust a single thing Khadr says unless it's to plead guilty under duress. Then you love him to death. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hal 9000 Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 It's all just splitting hairs, Khadr is no different than the scumbags from the Bataclan, Grande concert or any of the other radical islamic attacks of the last 20 years- simple as that!

bush_cheney2004 Posted July 18, 2017 Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 So Canadian to air domestic disputes in American newspapers....war criminal Omar Khadr's settlement is no exception. Quote The burst of attention started with a Wall Street Journal piece by a Canadian opposition MP. Conservative Peter Kent published a scorching op-ed titled, “A Terrorist’s Big Payday, Courtesy of Trudeau,” that helped the story gain traction elsewhere. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/omar-khadr-payout-gets-larger-us-media-attention-as-tory-mp-pens-op-ed/article35711859/ A Terrorist’s Big Payday, Courtesy of Trudeau Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
