But can I urge you to please read the U.N. Protocol on Child Soldiers, or at least read Chris Selley.<br /><br />http://fullcomment.nationalpost.com/2010/07/15/chris-selley-preaching-what-we-practise-on-child-soldiers/<br /><br />Thanks.<br /><br />Now try to be a better person... ;)Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-77633605954369736392010-07-15T21:23:20.560-04:002010-07-15T21:23:20.560-04:00hi anonymous three...no I'm afraid it is you w...hi anonymous three...no I'm afraid it is you who are off the mark. Or channeling Ezra Levant.<br />(1)Omar Khadr is a child soldier according to the Optional Protocol on the Involvement of Children in Armed Conflict. Which also applies to all those under the age of EIGHTEEN:<br />Article 4 of the Optional Protocol: <br /><br />“Armed groups that are distinct from the armed forces of a State should not, under any circumstances, recruit or use in hostilities persons under the age of 18."<br />(2)Khadr did not kill an unarmed medic. In the Special Forces a medic is a fully functioning combat soldier. I'm sorry Chris Speer died, but please get your facts right.<br />(3)Omar Khadr was a born in Canada and it doesn't matter how many years he spent here, he IS a Canadian citizen who was forced to leave the place he loved by his crazy parents who dragged him into danger. <br />(4) Whether most Canadians want him here or not is completely irrelevant. We do not administer justice on the basis of whether we like people and their families or not. That's not justice that's the jungle...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-74113839212625707362010-07-15T21:10:52.900-04:002010-07-15T21:10:52.900-04:00hi Oemissions...good for you for writing to them. ...hi Oemissions...good for you for writing to them. As I told the previous commenter I didn't read the comments but I can only imagine what bestial foulness that article unleashed. Bush and Cheney may be gone but their teabagger gang oinks on. I'm afraid when we take over the world we're going to have to pen them until they learn to reason and can walk on their hind legs... :)Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-32814976200708460102010-07-15T21:04:47.325-04:002010-07-15T21:04:47.325-04:00hi anonymous...oh yeah the comments. The articles ...hi anonymous...oh yeah the comments. The articles are horrible but the comments are even worse. To be honest I can't bear to read them anymore. I too have difficulty believing that Canadians can be that ignorant and vile. And it doesn't really matter what they say because the truth is the truth is the TRUTH.<br />And thank YOU for your kind comment. It's not easy trying to be a good person, because I am a bit wild, and I do have a bad temper. But I'm trying... I'm TRYING... ;)Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-67830852716673266842010-07-13T19:25:59.691-04:002010-07-13T19:25:59.691-04:00To have standing under the Geneva convention, both...To have standing under the Geneva convention, both parties have to sign the agreement.
