FURTHER CANADIAN SHAME IN OMAR KHADR CASE

I hope there is a special place in hell for lying Canadian politicians who get their jollies torturing Canadian citizens who are in need of help. Stephen Harper and the federal government have more than earned that outcome based upon their treatment of Canadian citizen, Omar Khadr. As a fifteen year old boy he was left in the temporary care of Afghan adults while his father was elsewhere. Their compound was bombed and attacked and Omar was grieviously wounded in the attack which resulted in the deaths of all the others in the compound plus one American forces serviceman. Then to add insult to injury, as a fifteen year old, seriously wounded Canadian citizen, he was charged with war crimes as well as murder. WTF. And it's not fair to say that Canada has done nothing. What they have done from the getgo is aid and abet the U.S. to justify their imprisonment and mistreatment of a child. There isn't a humanitarian organization around the world who have supported this treatment of Omar Khadr from the beginning.

Today's Waterloo Region Record carrys this story: "Former diplomat calls feds' delay in Omar Khadr case "unprecedented". This story on page A4 is a further condemnation of the Harper conservative government. Apparently they can't even make public promises in good faith. They publicly promised to repatriate Khadr if he pled guilty and served another year in Guantanamo. This agreement was between the U.S., Canada and Khadr. Well guess who's the only party to renege. Yup Canada.
