SNIPPET: “Last week, a military judge postponed the trial in order to allow time for the attorneys to negotiate a plea deal. Now, Khadr has pled guilty to five charges, including murder. The guilty plea makes Khadr the fifth person to be convicted in military commissions at Guantanamo Bay.
The details of the plea deal were not immediately available, but Khadr is due to be sentenced by a military jury in several days. He is expected to be repatriated to Canada after serving a year of his sentence.”

The Former Prime Minister of Canada ( Left-wing kook) actively worked to free his father, the patriarch of the Khadr terrorist family:
In January 1996, Prime Minister Jean Chrétien was on a Team Canada trade mission to Pakistan.
Ahmed Said Khadr’s wife and some of their children came to Chrétien’s hotel in Islamabad to plead the case of her husband. The oldest son, Abdullah, who was 15 at the time, remembers his encounter with the Canadian prime minister.
“He told me that ‘once I was a son of a farmer, and I became prime minister. Maybe one day you will become one.’ That was a nice compliment.”
Jean Chrétien raised the Khadr case with the Pakistani prime minister at the time, Benazir Bhutto, and within weeks, Ahmed Said Khadr was released. He resumed his life, which he claimed was devoted to charity work in Afghanistan.
He raised money in Canada that he said he was using to provide food and schooling to Afghan orphans.
U.S. and Canadian Intelligence sources, however, identified Ahmed Said Khadr as a close associate of Osama bin Laden.
