If the Syrians are suspected of supporting terrorist organizations like Hezbollah, and sending jihadis to Iraq, why do the Americans send their prisoners there for interrogation? Doesn't seem to make much sense.
Baden Guy said:This part revived my hope in Americans:
The attorney-general also said the U.S. government had received assurances that Arar would not be tortured.
"We knew damn well, if he went to Canada, he wouldn't be tortured," Leahy said loudly. "We also knew damn well, if he went to Syria, he'd be tortured. And it's beneath the dignity of this country, a country that has always been a beacon of human rights, to send somebody to another country to be tortured."
This man tells it like it is: http://leahy.senate.gov/press/200701/011807.html

I dont accept the rant from this left wing political opportunist who choose a public moment to open his yap and disrespect the Attorney General. There is more to the story then is in the public domain and as the AG said he would brief the loud mouth later on in the week. I will be surprised if we hear from him again after he sees inside the file.
Arar was not on holiday he was returning to Canada to collect his family and leave the country and his citizenship behind for ever. What you read in the papers is only the half truth to make him look like a victim.
didn't know we had gone anywhere. 3rd made some statements that are not supported and he's been called on it.cdnaviator said:: here we go again.......

Judge O'Connor's report doesn't mention any of your latter comments. http://www.ararcommission.ca/eng/26.htm#
Senator Leahy is no shrinking violet so I will be watching with interest how this comes out.

Well cant argue with that it does not change my view.geo said:Hmmm.... 3rd
I wonder if Maher's wife ofered coffee & cookies to the nice RCMP constables who tossed his place - so the RCMP could provide the FBI with "evidence" about contracts and leases he and his brother had signed. Do you mean the house he sold on his way out of the country? Cookies I hope so. ;D
The US homeland security and the FBI all leak like a sieve. If the US really had something on Arar, do you really think :
1) he would have been allowed to return to Canada? Obviously not and I would cotend that he was not for a very good reason, my point is that had he been the result would be different for us not him.
2) Homeland security would continue to keep it a secret when their competence & credibility is sooo much in question?
