text: This is NOT a clear cut Conservative vs. Liberal issue. The Khadr family being jihadi oriented should never have been allowed to immigrate into Canada. Next the "child soldier" thing - he was 16 and assuredly at that age knew how to shoot, throw grenades - and his parents were obviously aware of his deployment. He was lucky that during/after his capture (wounded) he was not summarily executed. Nobody would have cared. Was he abused under interrogation? Of course .... Was any of this "legal" ? A rather pretentiously precious concern. The legalities of/during any war in the heat of battle are nebulous at best. 
  
  The Supreme court ruling? The purely legalistic aspects probably prevented any other judgement. Mehtinks what infuriates most Canadians - Conservatives and Liberals - is the $10 million award ! At $1 million I would not have lost any sleep. $10 million is quite frankly obscene given the nature of the Khadr clan and abuse of our citizenship responsibilities and priviledges.
