What the government is worried about is that people might find out that information about torture reached Tory ears and a Conservative government did nothing about it for over a year.evilscientisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05247245848060278490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2946942062204448159.post-64199324250233401842010-03-21T12:08:21.411-04:002010-03-21T12:08:21.411-04:00@ anonymous 11:48

Uniform or official sanction by a government are not required. (GCIII Art 4).<br /><br />2) Terrorists or not, they are still human beings. Last I checked we like to claim that we are better than they are. Which is why it's important that rights apply to everyone. If they don't then we are no better than terrorists ourselves.<br /><br />3) It is a distraction as the topic at hand is what the _current_Conservative_ government is doing. That would be the one that was elected on a platform of accountability and then promptly forgot what the meaning of the word is. Your argument is like that of a drug addict when faced with their problem, suddenly they blame everyone else and when that doesn't work they roll out the "well you do this..." all to avoid looking at their problem. The amount of attack and misdirection coming from Toryland is so high, what's in the documents must be damaging to the Conservative party indeed.evilscientisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05247245848060278490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2946942062204448159.post-55787009000058103302010-03-21T01:02:31.677-04:002010-03-21T01:02:31.677-04:00You Liberals would rather take a chance at endange...You Liberals would rather take a chance at endangering our troops than face the fact that it is your party that is responsible for what has happened in Afghanistan.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2946942062204448159.post-1325106738233842182010-03-20T23:48:38.667-04:002010-03-20T23:48:38.667-04:00It's absolutely no distraction, more recently ...It's absolutely no distraction, more recently we have Chretien and Martins antics to pour over including the fact that it was the Liberals who sent Canadian troops to Afghanistan in the first place and when the Conservatives became the government they had to fix what was being neglected by the Liberals concerning the handling of captured Taliban terrorists.<br /><br />And they are terrorists, they have no rights under the Geneva Convention, but Liberals don't understand the difference between them and uniformed soldiers that that convention applies to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2946942062204448159.post-56552705885753561812010-03-20T20:52:18.754-04:002010-03-20T20:52:18.754-04:00@Anonymous 10:15
