It is our duty as bloggers to ensure that this type of sick rhetoric (hate speech and all the "isms") are rooted out.<BR/><BR/>Getting back to the point at hand. The strong opinion of many American Legal authorities, is that there are no grounds to hold Khadr on. The very POINT of this blog post discusses the contravention of UN human rights guidelines - to which the US was signatory. <BR/><BR/>If the claim is that a WAR was taking place, then this unfortunate minor (at the time) was potentially coerced by family elements and other propaganda, to be involved. Also, if this IS A WAR, he was simply defending himself, as soldiers the world over have done. As such it is MANDATORY that he be treated in the same manner as captured combatants were in past wars.<BR/><BR/>At first I was not going to allow Johnathon's ridiculous bit of hate speech (he attacks Muslims, and not simply one person's - who cares what religion - situation). <BR/><BR/>Comments such as these have led to pograms in Germany, to "ethnic cleansing" in the Balkans, and mass genocide in Africa. Sick people like this need to be pointed out, and their comments engaged, debated, and high-lighted as the hateful, angry crap they are.WesternGrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06658358114507615351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28423454.post-46277919292884017302008-07-11T18:54:00.000-07:002008-07-11T18:54:00.000-07:00I hope that muslim goofball gets his head cut off....I hope that muslim goofball gets his head cut off.<BR/><BR/>Omart Khadr is a fucking disgrace to Canada<BR/><BR/>Death to Omar Khadr.<BR/><BR/>Dirty fucking muslim.Johnathonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14468885934256262056noreply@blogger.com
