romeo dallaire says: bring omar khadr back to canada


I was surprised and pleased to see Roméo Dallaire's name associated with the campaign to repatriate Omar Khadr. I hope it helps.

It's hard to believe Omar Khadr is still being held in Guantanamo Bay. It's hard to believe that the concentration camp at Guantanamo Bay still exists.

As of today, 168 souls are believed to be interred there. Most have never been charged with any crimes.

As for Khadr, this is Prime Minister Stephen Harper's infatuation with the United States at its most disturbing and dangerous. Canadians should never forget that if Stephen Harper had been Prime Minister in 2003, this country would have joined in the invasion of Iraq.
