Former Guantanamo Bay detainee Omar Khadr wants to be granted a Canadian passport to travel to Saudi Arabia and permission to speak to his controversial sister.
Khadr, who is now 32, will be back in the Court of Queen’s Bench in Edmonton Thursday to apply for changes to his bail conditions which were imposed while he appeals war crime convictions by a U.S. military commission.
Khadr is lucky to be alive, let alone free to travel and reconnect with nefarious associates. Khadr killed US Army medic SFC Christopher Speer in Afghanistan and then was taken to the US military detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, in 2002. Khadr plead guilty to charges stemming from his participation as a hostile enemy combatant, was sentenced, and in 2012, was released to Canadian custody by President Obama. A Canadian citizen, Khadr was released on bail in 2015.

Obama, Canada, an Islamic terrorist released from his sentence. I'm not surprised Sir.
Perhaps, moving forward through the enemy on the battlefield, making sure the enemy is dead so no enemy is alive in the rear, will cut down on this type of BS Sir.

Cpl Mark M,
That murderer should never had been released. He would be the very last in the darned place to be let out. Anyone else would never be released. Most would get life without the possibility of parole or executed. Obama, made deals that were very controversial to say the least. Personally I think the law providing protection for past presidents and families should be curtailed. Maybe they would be less likely to do things that provoke American citizens at their departure from office or opening their mouths to criticize whatever the seated president does under his/her watch.
It appears to me that this could produce what could be characterized as" Combat Justice". The soldiers are fed up with fighting anyway, especially when those murdering our soldiers are being let go! This may already be going on and no one is the wiser. I for one am tired of turning the other cheek, just to get slapped again, that hurts after awhile!
What is going on to our president is BS as well and I am tired of it!

LTC James McElreath - I agree Sir. I was just trying to keep from writing he should have gotten a round to the head, then released LTC.

I agree with you without a doubt! The problem does lay in the good ole boys/girls club called the American Bar Association! One can no longer prove ones innocence anymore without the best shyster one can find! The better they are at the game they manage the more money they charge and I never met one that was cheap. Young people go into the law to better the system, but soon come to the realization that it is all about the "Play of the Game, get the deal made and "t" time!

I can forgive but that doesn't mean I forget; I am of the opinion that once an individual is radicalized and become an enemy conbatant they don't ever change their stripes. He killed an Americam during combat and should not be allowed any more privilages.
