So Many Possibilities...For Courts To Hash Out

Posted on Monday, June 05 at 14:49 by 4Canada
Militant Islamists have committed outrages in the United States, Indonesia, Spain and Britain to counter what they see as the crimes of these countries against Muslims. There is no obvious reason to assume that similar criminals won't try the same thing here.

All of which is to say that the Mounties may be absolutely correct when they say they stopped the 17 from using homemade detonators and three tonnes of fertilizer to blow up as yet unspecified targets in southern Ontario.

There may indeed have been a terrorist conspiracy that involved what the RCMP assistant commissioner Mike McDonell yesterday referred to as "training areas," where militants tramped about in big boots, cooked on outdoor barbecues, built bombs and used a wooden door for target practice.

    Ah yes, the Courts<br />
    That great body of impartiality, really quite separate and objective are they?<br />
    I have contributed information from Karl Eisbrenner and his treatment at the hands of the courts as well as information regarding Jack Cram&#8217;s similar experiences or that Of David Hunter Thomson (<a href="http://www.firefly.ryerson.ca/politics/socialjustice/progressive_research/index.cfm?group_id=1910">http://www.firefly.ryerson.ca/politics/socialjustice/progressive_research/index.cfm?group_id=1910</a>)<br />
    If any of you believe that somehow the law and the courts have escaped deep corruption contained in all other segments of society, then you are living in a fool&#8217;s paradise.<br />

    Most people I talked to about the incident were unaware, indifferent if they did hear about it and some went as far as to accuse the Americans of setting it up. It won't be hard to find a jury or judge. Canada has it's own prison to match that in Cuba and our security service is demanding more dollars. If this is a ploy, it may backfire as most people will believe Canada has brought terrorism in the country by partaking in American dominance.

    Appreciated this article for pointing out exactly what the facts are at present so that at least some of us can avoid hysteria. Also loved the comment "at least they haven't been shipped off to Syria", referencing Maher Arar. Now if only all the media tried to maintain some professional skepticism, unlike say the American Post which has gone the other way and published the biggest scariest headlines possible instead.
