Omar Khadr
Omar Khadr is probably the greatest shame on Canada, because two governments, the Liberals under Paul Martin and the Conservatives under Harper have both made the overt decision to leave him in prison. The case against him is insane.
He was a child, aged 15. He was in Afghanistan because his parents took him there. His father and mother are militant Muslims. He was in a building that US commandos suddenly attacked. When people in the building shot back, they bombed the building and blew it to bits. Then they approached the building, and a US soldier got killed by a hand grenade thrown from the ruins of the building. When they entered the ruins Omar was still alive, but, others were too. In a revised report, they made him the only one left alive. He has been charged with murder. He was shot at close range by bullets (plural).
The case is insane for several reasons:
1) He is a child soldier, which means he is a victim of war not a war criminal.
2) Evidence was changed to make him the only person by inference who might have thrown a hand grenade.There is no witness that he did.
3) Soldiers killed while attacking a house in a foreign country cannot be victims of murder. They are casualties of war.
4) People in a house being attacked by foreigners are engaged in self-defense.
