The unending torture of listening to people bitch about Omar Khadr

Rolling Stone writer Jeff Tietz opines the fate of Omar Khadr.

He was a child of jihad, a teenage soldier in bin Laden's army. Captured on the battlefield when he was only fifteen, he has been held at Guantanamo Bay for the past four years -- subjected to unspeakable abuse sanctioned by the president himself.

This word unspeakable; it does not mean what he thinks it means. As for poor wittle Omar, he was not just a teen "soldier" in bin Laden's "army" but, it should be pointed out, a family friend. Omar Khadr was nineteen at the time those words were written; he is now twenty-one. Sgt. Christopher Speer, by contrast, is still dead (follow that link, please, and watch the video). And I expect the unknown owner of those hands might deserve some justice as well. But then progressives only care about the supposed misdeeds of white folk. The mutilation and murder of unnamed brown people leaves the "left" strangely unmoved when brown freedom fighters wield the knife.

"Kill me," Khadr said, believing his place in heaven secured by the murder he committed. "Please, just kill me." If they had obliged him Omar Khadr would be in Hell, I would never have heard his name and the "left" would cheerfully have found some other maniac to grace the abattoir that passes for their roll of honour.

Omar Khadr deserved to be dispatched then and there.*

*Exit question: If Kate is a "backwoods xenophobe" does this mean they have woods in Saskatchewan? I feel lied to. Oh, and while I could care less about Matthew Good, having been stalked for several years by one of his retard groupies (yes, Matthew, I mean her) even hearing his name is worse than nails on chalkboard. By their fruits ye shall know them; I cannot say I am surprised to learn where his sympathies lie.
