Omar Khadr: Former Gitmo prisoner who killed US soldier to get $$$ from Canadian gov't
Fox news ^ | 4 July 2017

The Canadian government will apologize and give millions to a former Guantanamo Bay prisoner who pleaded guilty to killing a U.S. soldier in Afghanistan when he was 15, an official said Tuesday.

An official familiar with the matter told the Associated Press that Omar Khadr will receive $8 million. The deal was negotiated with Khadr’s lawyers and the Canadian government last month.

And how much of those funds will go to fund more terrorists - either at home in Canada, or abroad?

Evil on the march, winning many victories.

This scumbag is close enough to be made an example of.

Allowing him to walk around with 8 million dollars sends a very bad message of weakness to millions of mooselimbs and communists in North America.

I wouldn’t bet on him surviving too long.

Our Canadian friends are insane.
They might as well put out “Welcome Terrorists” signs all over the country.

Kills an American soldier and blinds another, sues because of sleep deprivation and becomes a millionaire. Pure insanity.

The families of the two soldiers sued and won for 132 million BTW. They will never see a dime.

Re the Khadr family and Canada:

Ahmed Said Khadr, AKA Abu al-Kanadi, director of Human Concern International, a Canadian charity “financed by the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA),” had close contacts with al Qaeda terrorist network as early as 1988, and with Osama Bin Laden before then. He would later become a “key figure in the Canadian al Qaeda network.”
In Peshawar Khadr worked with the Benevolence International, a member of which would later direct the Illinois-based charity that American authorities claimed served as a funding conduit to Osama bin Laden. (As for CIDA, it gave $325,000 to Human Concern between 1980 and 1997.) (”Khadr tied to al Qaeda as far back as 1988”, National Post, Canada, February 1, 2003)

Apologize and give 8 million... So now we can’t take Canada as a rational and reasonable ally?

In other words, Trudeau is paying, using the Canadian citizens’ tax money, terrorists to kill US soldiers. Will he pay for killing US citizens too?

“”The Canadian-born Khadr pleaded guilty in 2010 “”

Born in Canada and was in Afghanistan when he was 15? Can’t find the date of the killing of our soldier.

This is SICK and I hope the family of the murdered soldier continues their lawsuit....
