Excerpt -
A teenage Omar Khadr sobs uncontrollably as Canadian spy agents question him at the U.S. military prison in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, in a brief video excerpt released via the internet early Tuesday morning.The 10-minute video posted just after 5 a.m. ET is of poor quality and the voices are often inaudible, as it was never intended to be viewed by the public. But it shows Khadr, 16 at the time, being interviewed by Canadian officials in late February 2003.

Thanks to the nutjobs on SCOTUS, justice is going to be meted out in the field. Why take a prisoner if he's going to be the darling of the ACLU?
Yeah, cry me a river. Like you said Next...
I don't know of a mother on the planet that has not felt that way with a house full of kids. If we call Khadr tortured then we must also refer to motherhood as torture. (eye roll)
That's already been done.
Obama said he didn't want his daughter punished with a baby.
Although only 15 at the time of his capture, Khadr was seen both by U.S. and Canadian intelligence services as a prize captive because he was the son of Ahmed Said Khadr, who had ties to Al Qaeda’s elite. There were three visits by Canadian officials in 2003 and 2004 before a federal court injunction halted any further visits to glean intelligence.
Khadr was captured on July 27, 2002 in Afghanistan following a firefight with U.S. Special Forces. He has been in Guantanamo since October 2002, when he was transferred from the U.S. base in Bagram, Afghanistan.
Now 21, he is scheduled to face a military trial Oct. 8 for five war crimes, including murder for allegedly throwing a grenade that fatally wounded U.S. Sgt. Christopher Speer.
I believe he is accused of throwing a grenade that killed a US medic, in Afghanistan. He and his family are Al Qaeda’ supporters.
They were interrogators, not social workers.
He ought to have been killed, the dirty SOB.
He kind of hit the nail on the head. ACLU take note: He doesn't need that course in improving your verbal expression.
Throw him a crying towel. This is one Canadian who has no sympathy for this scroat, and no desire to see him returned alive to Our Home and Native Land.
If you can, put him on trial and hang him as an enemy spy. It will be cheaper than warehousing him at Gitmo.
He shouldn’t hang. Waste of a good rope. Have him face a firing squad. Televise it internationally. This is a war, let’s act like it.
