More Omar Kadhr pictures and the man he killed



Never forget that Omar Khadr has plead guilty to his crimes in the war in Afghanistan he may have not got a fair shake by being sent to Gitmo... but his sentence was a gift.

"Guantanamo Bay detainee Omar Khadr pleaded guilty to charges against him Monday, the Pentagon said, in the first military commission trial there since Barack Obama became president.   Khadr, 24, was accused of throwing a grenade during a 2002 firefight in Afghanistan that resulted in the death of Army Sgt. 1st Class Christopher Speer, a Special Forces medic.  He also admitted that he "converted landmines to Improvised Explosive Devices and assisted in the planting of 10 IEDs with the intent of killing American forces" in the months before killing Speer, the Pentagon said."

"A biography of the patriarch of the Khadr family posted on an al-Qaeda website praises him as a fighter for the poor who disliked living among the luxuries of Canada.
Ahmed Said Khadr is one of dozens of people profiled in the "Book of 120 Martyrs in Afghanistan." It is posted online at the Al-Fajr media centre, al-Qaeda's online news service.
The biographer says Egyptian-born Ahmed Said Khadr reluctantly came to Canada after breezing through a Cairo university and emerging with a computer engineering degree.
After living unhappily in Canada — which the writer calls "a dirty swamp" — for 10 years, Khadr returned to Pakistan during the mid-1980s. While there, he worked for a Canadian government-backed charity called Human Concern International, says the account.
Khadr later formed his own charity, returning to Canada from time to time to collect money for the Afghan jihad against the Soviets.
In 1992 he stepped on a landmine, paralyzing a hand and a foot, and returned to Canada for one year for medical care and to recuperate.
His biographer says he found the luxury of Canada not to his liking. He returned to Pakistan, becoming an al-Qaeda commander in Logar province when U.S.-led coalition forces invaded Afghanistan following the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, says the biography.
Khadr was shot and killed by Pakistani troops in 2003 during a firefight in the mountains of Pakistan. His biographer says he refused to surrender, choosing death and immediate entry into paradise instead.
Khadr's son, Omar Khadr, is also praised in the biography. Omar Khadr is currently on trial at a U.S. military prison in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, for allegedly killing an American soldier with a grenade in 2002.

The biography praises Ahmed Said Khadr for "tossing his little child in the furnace of the battle." Omar, says the biography, is an injured lion cub who hasn't let despair overwhelm him despite being arrested and imprisoned."

Romeo in the courtroom at Gitmo
OTTAWA -- O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo? Turns out, he's in Gitmo serving time as a war criminal.
Canada's Omar Khadr, who last fall pleaded guilty to war crimes, is being schooled at the military prison on the U.S. naval base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to prepare for his eventual release, according to the Miami Herald.
The Miami Herald is reporting part of his schooling had the 24-year-old read the part of Romeo, while his towering 6-6 military lawyer read the part of Juliet.
(Among the quotable from the classic Shakespeare play: "Deny thy father and refuse thy name," "These violent delights have violent ends," "A plague o' both your houses," "Tempt not a desperate man" and "A greater power than we can contradict, hath thwarted our intents.")
Khadr's curriculum -- designed by Edmonton's Arlette Zinck, a professor at King's University College -- reportedly includes history, math, astronomy, grammar and elocution.
English is reportedly the emphasis for Khadr, 24, to help him qualify as a mature student and be accepted into college if and when he returns to Canada, which could happen as early as this fall.

Lt.-Col. Jon Jackson, Khadr's military lawyer (a.k.a. Juliet), told the Herald's Carol Rosenberg the education program is going well.
"He's very serious about his education," Jackson told the Herald. "His attitude is positive. There's been a real change in him now that he has the legal matters behind him."
In October, Khadr pleaded guilty to a series of war crimes, including killing a U.S. Special Forces solider with a grenade during a July 2002 firefight in Afghanistan when Khadr was 15 years old.
Omar as he was and as the man he is today
He was also part of an al-Qaida explosives cell that was making and planting roadside bombs targeting U.S. forces in Afghanistan during the same summer.
While the military jury in his war-crimes trial at Guantanamo Bay sentenced the Toronto-born Khadr to 40 years behind bars, a secret plea bargain capped his sentence to eight years.
The deal also allows Khadr to apply to return to Canada next fall with the support of the U.S. government, after serving one year of his sentence at the detention facility at Guantanamo Bay."

The man he killed had a family........
This does not include all the other innocents he murdered with the help of his father and family....
He is sentenced to 40 years but his sentenced is capped at 8 years...

  1. The second and third picture is not Omar Khadr! What do you want to achieve with spreading these lies? Who is doing wrong now?

    Have you considered that Omar Khadr will be able to make an enormous claim because of the damage to his reputation you're causing with this misrepresentation.

  2. I agree that Khadr should be kept locked up for his actions, and that he is not the innocent child that the Canadian media portrays, but posting pictures of someone else and claiming they are Khadr is a poor way of getting that point across. It damages the credability of the rest of your article. Stick to the facts, they speak for themselves!

  3. Thats awesome you think I'm worried about wrecking the reputation of a man who killed a fellow medic?

    Hardly...

    So if the second and third picture is not Omar then who is it?
    If the second and third are not Omar then you have to admit the first one is... him making IED's...... (this is not shop class.... he is a killer)

    1. "you think I'm worried about wrecking the reputation of a man who killed a fellow medic?"

      Sorry, but what proof do you have that he killed anyone?
      He was tortured and confessed to the killing so that he would be allowed to go to a canadian prsions.
      But we all know how reliable the confessions of torture are...

  4. Hmm.. I actually have seen the second and third pictures before and believed it to be Omar as well...

    He seems to quite enjoy making his death traps, carrying severed limbs, etc... Good thing there are always Rick and buddling at the defense of a convicted murderer.

    I wonder, if in all their likely "years" of blogging, at the defense of Khadr, if they have written any condemnation on Khadr regarding the killing of the US soldier or the impact on this soldiers family?

    I give them the opportunity.

  7. it is a wonder for sure, a wonder so perplexing that I don't think the smartest and fastest computer could come up with a reasonable explanation. islam murdered its way into existence over the 1400 years it has been, to the tune of over 270 million and counting but, people are debating about the rights of one of them that are responsible for at the very least, one of those 270 million. The computer would fail in its attempt to solve !!!

  8. Dear Americans and Armed Forces USA - please know that we Canadians despise, disrespect, do not recognize justin trudeau for his behaviour, his choice of conduct, his heinous actions and cowardly way of evading the Canadians - we have a right to know where our taxpayer dollars are going and this settlement was negotiated behind closed doors and only leaked to the public at the 11th hour. We believe he is complicit as a traitor to our country in beckoning in terrorists and disreputable Islamic types and organizations including putting Islamists into his cabinet as his ministers. We are in shock over this and do find him deplorable in every way. Nothing he does or says is honest, truthful nor compassionate. It is all for fame and fortune. We are so very sorry about how this turned out especially for the Speer family. Please accept our sincere condolences. We are voting him out before 2019 and want him charged with treason as soon as is possible.

  9. I also am Canadian and would like to reinforce and agree with previous Canadians comments that I and the majority of Canadians do not agree with Justin Trudeau's decision to apologize to and reward a traitor to our country and it's allies. We all hope and look forward to Trudeau's defeat in the next federal election. Please except my apology for my government decisions, they do not speak for me and know not what they have done.

  10. I'm a candian and i would just like to point out that the other canadians here are ignorant hate-mongers blinded by their prejudice.
    Omar Khadr was awarded 10 million dollars for the part the canadian government played in the violation of his rights.

    He was a child soldier taken overseas when he was 9 years old. He was held without trial and tortured for 10 years. He was then offered a deal to plead guilty to killing the american soldier and in exchange he could leave Guantanamo.
    Maybe he killed that soldier. If so...well that's sad. As sad as it is any time a human being dies. But that's what happens in war.
    Killing an enemy in battle is not a murder and it's certainly not a war crime.

    What we know is that his rights as a canadian were violated. Here in canada we do not presume guilt until proven innocent.

    All these "canadians" screaming for blood in the absence of evidence need to ask themselves what separates them from the terrorists who want to take our rights and freedoms away

  11. He was not a child soldier by the definition set forth by the UN.

    The UN states "‘To qualify under the Third Geneva Convention, a combatant must have conducted military operations according to the laws and customs of war, be part of a chain of command, wear a “fixed distinctive marking, visible from a distance” and bear arms openly.’"

    There is no evidence he was tortured that I know of.
    What he did WAS murder, as he was not a soldier, he was a punk ass terrorist that acted outside the laws of war.

    I'm a Canadian too, and he should have had his rights and citizenship stripped once it came out he was camping out with Bin Laden at his compound, building bombs and parading around with severed limbs. But no... us canadians are seen as international pussies and a joke. Thanks to Jihadi Justin. I am PISSED that there are people in this country who are just barely keeping their heads above water, we're being taxed to death and our inept government is throwing money away like it grows on trees. Total bullshit. The man had the unfortune of being born into that shitass family, I feel bad for that, he can't help what he was born into, but by god, he could sure stand up for right/wrong as a teen, he could stand up to his parents, he could have done any number of things, but at the end of the day he chose to be a terrorist, and he got handsomely rewarded for that....

  12. The list of Canadians who have had their rights violated by the CANADIAN legal system (not to mention a foreign court) is a long one. Very few of them recieved payouts and when they did, those payouts were very small by comparison to Khadr's.

    Khadr recieved this payout for one reason only: the Prime Minister of Canada is an Islamist who will do anything he can to further the cause of Islam in Canada.

    There are many Canadians who find this payout disgusting and are fighting the Islamic invasion of our country.

    Those of us fighting Islam can take comfort in the fact that history is on our side.
