As someone who is more on the political left than right, I find this story ranks with
the bias of old. Yes they probably were tortured when they were turned over to
their Afghan captors. They are not our responsibility, we captured them and turned them over to a penal system. And if you believe, that prisoners were not
tortured in every other war we have been engaged in, you are kidding yourselves
it happens all the time. Its only too bad we bothered to take the time to take
prisoners at all if you know what I mean. It seems to me, Canadians don't grasp
the fact that we are at war and when that happens the first casualty is the truth.
As long as the final outcome is favorable to us, meaning NATO or the UN, it
matters not what happens in the theatre of war. I do not support the Iraq War
but I do support Afghanistan, and we should not be going home until the job is
done.
