Those boys would have had the sense to pop one through his skull then and there.
Problem solved.
Khadr - Pleads Guilty to Terror Charges
- Thread starter Goober
- Start date
Problem solved.
Some points to consider
How old was he when he father started indoctrinating him? 8, 10 - maybe from birth -
How old was he when he killed the Soldier
Lastly - Is our anger not directed in the right way -
The Khadr Family that supports Jihad yet the Govt cannot or will not do anything.
Just some points to consider
I'm beginning to think there's something a little fishy going on here. Sounds to me like he's changed his plea because he's convinced that arrerting his innocense is going to ensure he rots in prison whereas if he pleads guilty he has a chance of getting out in another 10 or 15 years. Maybe a lot of bullsh*t going on here. One thing for sure a whole "murder" of lawyers are going to get rich.
The sentence was oddly worded.
No more than a year in Gitmo.
No more than 8 years total........
I think you will see Omar walking the streets of Toronto MUCH sooner than you think.
So much for Bush's bullsh*t about military alleged criminals not being eligible for civilian justice. So which way should it be? :smile:
There are other reasons of course, pipelines, strategic placement next to Russia, but most important, the all mighty dollar - profits from war. How are Haliburton shares doing?
You should read the article in the Globe today on the testimony of a psychiatrist who did an in depth psychological evaluation of Khadr. The portrayal is of a vicious little thug, 'marinated' in radical jihad.
His time in Guantanamo, comprising most of his late adolescence and early adulthood, where he was a 'rock star' amongst other detainees, entrenched and further radicalized, rather than moderated, his fanaticism.
He cemented his position by taunting and threatening guards, including an Black female, who he termed a 'wh(o)re, bitch and slave'. His mother extolled suicide bombers from his earliest childhood, encouraging him to become an Islamic martyr to collect his 72 virgins in the afterlife.
When returned to Canada in about a year, which has no programs for deradicalization, at 24 years of age, and with the liklihood he will be released almost immediately, he will be like a plague bascillus, with the charisma of complete commitment to his cause, amongst other impressionable young Islamic males.
Canada's justice system has no response or experience at present for individuals like Khadr, intent on suicide in the most spectacular and murderous of circumstances.

It's only a matter of time before Omar gets nicked by the authorities for some terrorism related event. No doubt that all of the apologists will be wringing their hands in angst and blaming Canada for not raising this poor child appropriately... That seems to be the typical apologist response; blame anyone but Omar.
A psychiatrist who does a psychological evaluation is an oxymoron. Everyone knows psychiatrists are the poor man's psychologist - passing off subjective assertions as some clear indication of behavior. Clearly this guy also had some ulterior motives when he started comparing Khadr to Castro. No, this little Freud was bought and paid for - handsomely.
Get a real professional in there to do an assessment instead of these quacks.
I think you have it backwards. Psychiatrists are the top of the heap in terms of the mental health industry. They are MD's that have specialized, psychologists are not.
I've spent a couple of years worrying about cousins deployed in Iraq so I find it hard to sympathize with Mr. Khadr, that being said, I'm just wondering why he doesn't come under the protection of the child soldier conventions, you can hardly claim 15 year olds with AKs killing their parents and others in Africa come under any sort of regular soldier classification, how is Afghanistan any different?
Africans can kill each other all day,not much of an uproar,it seems the americans take it personally.Khadr should have plead self defence.
You can say that again. One need only to look at what happened in Rwanda to see that.
GUANTANAMO BAY NAVAL BASE, Cuba – A former teenage al-Qaida fighter was sentenced Sunday to eight more years in custody under the terms of a [COLOR=#366388 !important][COLOR=#366388 !important]plea [COLOR=#366388 !important]agreement[/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR] unsealed after a military sentencing jury said he should serve 40 years for war crimes.

African, European, Asians pretty much everybody kills everybody. Khadr got off easy wonder why?
Khadr was like any child, brainwashed by his family and I include the Mother, the siblings and the grandparents - those that emigrated here should be freaking deported - Born here they are Canadian. Child soldiers in Africa have committed worse yet Khadr is held out as an example of how screwed the US is when it comes to a 15 year old - There is no excuse for it except pure unadulterated hatred and persecution. Same as enforcing the death penalty for those that are mentally challenged - the Khadr case cause more harm to the US reputation as vengefull by their actions.
The Roman Emperors relied on Theater as the end of Empire approached. They did not act on the corruption and numerous casue and hatred caused by their policies even within Italy by refusing to make all Italian Roman Citizens.- They had a civil war - Hopefully the US does better. Other wise we can all be working for China, then India. not my idea of a dream world. I would say that you agree?.Yes?????
