You support torturing children, which isn't surprising as you're also an ardent supporter of the immoral system of capitalism.

Supporting the torture of a child who wasn't even found guilty mind you.


Very good comrade.. Der Leader has taught you well.

PS - your posts will carry more force if you employ the word 'decadent' more often... It's a favored word by The State

He was neither a child nor a soldier, just a run of the mill cowardly combatant that hid among the innocent crowds, using them as human shields.

"As far as my opinion on that matter is you either believe in international law or you don't. You can't only support it when it's convenient to the cause that you believe in. As far as international law is concerned, I believe that it says very clearly that Mr. Khadr should be treated as a child soldier."

Apparently, the globe doesn't support international law strongly enough as each nation has it's own laws in place that trump the former.

So how does one treat a child soldier? It seems to me the first thing I would do is shoot the parents for creating a child soldier. What is the next step?

I wonder what International Law has to say about persons that fabricate landmines and hide them amongst the general population?... Using innocent civilians as human shields?.. Cutting off the hands, feet and ears of enemy combatants to serve as souvenirs?

It would be interesting to learn what International Law has to say of this

He's a war criminal and I hope the Canadian Gov't appeals his bail..

Lock him up and toss away the key.



Sgt. 1st Class Christopher J. Speer was murdered by Omar Khadr.



Kadhr was a child. Speer was not. Speer volunteered to cross the ocean for the sole purpose of killing people. Kahdr was a child.

Usually medics are not the ones fighting in a theatre of war .
Also Canadian citizens usually don't take their children into a theatre of war to fight .

If he had been a soldier, he would have been tried for treason, and executed!
That wouldnt have happened for two reasons. One he was underage and second, the military got rid of the death penalty back in the 90s.

Kahdr did not cross the ocean? If he's not Canadian, what the frick is he doing here? Send him back.

Not many 13 year olds get a say in where they go when their parents decide to take them there. That includes out of the country. They should not have been allowed to take a kid there. That family was known to have connections to terrorists at that time.

Also Canadian citizens usually don't take their children into a theatre of war to fight .

Usually. These ones did.

You really don't appear to have a great understanding of human nature, do you? There's a reason the penalties for children and adults are different, perhaps you are not cognizant of this. :)


Does it matter anymore?. You have already, unilaterally determined that Canadian society and Canadian standards nullify anything that Afghanistan would have to offer.. You said it right here:

I think Canadian society and standards definitely trumps Afghan society and standards.

Nice to see that you can unilaterally assess moral superiority at your leisure..... Say, isn't that what guys like Hitler did too?

Don't waste your time Gerry- he's as thick as a post! :icon_smile:

That is truly hilarious coming from a guy that couldn't figure-out why I responded with 'Wow'

... Yep, yer blind in one and can't see out the other

First of all you responded with "wow" because you were so overwhelmed you never had anything more intelligent to add on the subject. And second we're NOT in Afghanistan, Afghanistan isn't mapping out his future, Omar isn't in Afghanistan and further more I doubt if there's a dozen people in Afghanistan today who really give a rat's A$$ about this case. And further more not everyone in Afghanistan is really interest in upholding laws.
