Canada sponsoring terrorism

Canada and the US, state sponsors of terrorism? Yes, if you believe Lieutenant-General Roméo Alain Dallaire. As reported on chycho.com, Dallaire told a parliamentary subcommittee meeting that in failing to protect Omar Khadr from the US, Canada, and the US, both broke international law -- not to mention many domestic laws -- and if we're not prepared to obey the law, then we're no different from those that have no respect for the law.

Well said, Mr. Dallaire. Whether we feel someone is guilty or not, doesn't make them guilty or not guilty -- only evidence does that -- and without evidence, there is no guilt. That premise mostly works -- and has been a foundation of our society. When we start making exceptions, we tamper with the foundations of our society.
