Proof That Lefties Support Taliban Bombers!

The NP has an article about Afghan detainees. It appears that Canadians are buying into the detainee issue....or are they?

OTTAWA - A solid majority of Canadians believe prisoners detained by Canadian soldiers have been tortured after being transferred to Afghan authorities, a new Ipsos Reid poll suggests.

A fat majority also say that if torture occurred, it was not only wrong but that they believe there was widespread knowledge of it within the Canadian government -- and that senior officials should lose their jobs, if that was the case.


First off, I can't find the survey the NP is quoting. The newest released data at Ipsos Reid is whether the opposition can be trusted. In order to view the results, you need to pony up $95 a year.


So, not having the actual questions, I'm going to play with statistics.

Question 1: Given that the Afghan Muslims stone women to death for being raped, do you think that Afghan prisoners are tortured?

(Hint, you have to answer yes to this question)

Question 2: If our Canadian troops hand over captured Taliban who are prone to chopping off woman's heads, do you think they might be tortured by Afghans?

(Hint, you have to answer yes)

Question 3: Given that the Taliban throw acid in young girls faces for going to school, do you think that they might be tortured?

(Hint, you have to answer yes)

Pollster John Wright said Canadians are saying they "care deeply" about the possibility of detainees being tortured after Canadian soldiers have transferred them to Afghan custody.

"They're saying it's not proper, it should have stopped and, if it didn't, somebody should have done something about it," he said.

Of the 61% who believe torture occurred, 59% said they think the tactic was routine, compared to 34% who believe it happened only on rare occasions, the poll suggests.

Quebecers were more likely to believe transferred detainees were tortured. Seventy-six per cent of them took that position, whereas residents of Alberta were the least likely to believe it, at 44%.


Question 4: Do you "care deeply" that murdering detainees might be tortured by the Afghans?

(Hint, you only care if you are Taliban lovers and could care less about young Afghan girls)

Question 5: If your daughter was raped and then sentenced to death, do you believe in the Afghan government as a way to protect your child?

(Do you seriously need a hint for this one?)

A majority said that if it is determined that officials knew as far back as 2007 that torture was taking place and didn't do anything to stop it, or denied it was happening at all, then top bosses should be ousted from their jobs.

Fifty-seven per cent said the defence minister, now Peter MacKay, should be forced to resign, and 56% said the chief of defence staff, currently Walter Natynczyk, should go.


Question 6: If you send troops into a desert fight in green camo, should the Minister be responsible?

(Hint, it was the Liberals who did this)

Question 7: If officials knew back in 2001, when the troops where first sent over to Afghanistan that torture was the norm, should the Liberals be held to account?

(Hint, the press have a short memory and therefore they blame everything on the Conservatives, and ignore the FACT that it was the Liberals who had a bad transfer agreement and it was the Conservatives who fixed it).

This poll appears to be very biased, but I can't really tell because the results would cost me $95, and I'm not one of those rich Liberal bloggers who can afford to see the results.

This poll proves that lefties support Taliban Bombers, and think women killed for minor "crimes" do not matter. It is a sad statement of our lefty people, they used to support the down trodden, now they support terrorists. Is it fear?

Education Is The Key!

People have talked about ending poverty for decades by sending massive amounts of money to third world countries. It's not working.

We are seeing terrorists who are intent on killing people and continuing to oppress their own women. This is working.

The key to both problems is education. If you educate the people, they can create new businesses and opportunities for their families. Look at any country that has a high standard of living and they all have high levels of education.

The internet is changing people in all countries. Now some people can shortcut government media control and go to blogs to get the real picture.

Saudi Bloggers Shatter the Kingdom's Silence and Censorship

While the kingdom's 15 daily newspapers and many magazines are created by royal decree and subject to government censorship, the World Wide Web offers Saudis a vast, relatively unregulated new frontier of self-expression about sensitive political, economic, and social topics. While most Arab newspapers tend to follow the lead of their state-run news agencies on whether to publish stories on sensitive issues, the estimated 5,000 Saudi blogs have given the more than 6 million Saudis who are online an outlet not only to vent their considerable frustrations, but a place to press for political and social change.


The blogs are getting the word out to the people, we have seen this in Iran with the protests. These are educated people and as that 6 million number grows, so to will the power of the people. It is hard to keep oppressing a people who understand what is going on around them.

Unfortunately, terrorists use people's lack of education to brainwash them to their cause.

We need our troops to keep Canada safe, but we also need to educate the people of Afghanistan so that they can have the power to fight the Taliban with words and knowledge.

Education is the key.

We Owe Them Our Respect.

Those brave men and women who protect our country deserve our praise and gratitude. In this new year, let us make sure they know how much we appreciate their sacrifice for our country. That is my new years resolution.



Every time I hear about another soldier who has been killed, my heart breaks for the family. Their child is gone, he/she feels no more pain, but the family must endure the loss of one too young to be gone.

The slimy disgusting terrorists know that Christmas is a prime time to kill our young ones, they gloat about it, and the journalists report it, without turning them in. I guess a "scoop" is more important than integrity.

The lame stream media deserves to die. I was flabbergasted this Christmas when both my Liberal parents said the CBC should be gone. I never thought I would hear them talk about how bad the CBC was, and they are in their eighties. The LSM are killing themselves with their obvious Liberal bias, do they not understand that Liberals are all talk, no buy papers type of people. Looking at the donations to the Liberal party, they are also all talk, no support with money kinds of people.

It saddens me that the media is more interested in "got-you" moments than actual reporting of facts. I hate to say it, but now that one of their own has died, maybe they will start reporting the truth of what is happening over in Afghanistan.

If the terrorist who laid the bomb that killed 4 soldiers and one journalist was caught, would journalists be crying for his rights? Will journalists get their heads out of the Liberals butts long enough to actually report real news? It appears that they are so dumb that they can't understand why no one is watching them anymore.

Every hour of every day, our troops risk their lives for Canadians.

Gov. Gen. Michaelle Jean, too, reacted with sadness to the deaths and injuries.

"This new tragedy, like all those before it, is shocking," she said in a statement early Thursday.

"It reminds us of the underhanded, blind, daily violence facing our Canadian soldiers, journalists and humanitarian workers in Afghanistan, who are working alongside the local population already hard hit by decades of terror.

"Our thoughts are with the families, the loved ones and the colleagues of the deceased. We also wish the injured a prompt recovery."


Funny....underhanded, blind, daily violence....yet the Liberals keep on bleating about one supposed terrorist being hit with a shoe. Keep it up Liberals and your lame media, it is only pushing independents into the Conservative column.

To make the lives of our military a political issue is disgusting. Liberals are so out of touch with Canadians that they think we care about a terrorist being tortured. I wonder if the person who planted the IED that killed 4 of our soldiers and a journalist has been in an Afghan jail and been released. Maybe the opposition can look into that while they are on holidays. Or are they all too busy getting tans in Arizona to really care about Afghanistan?

They have cried wolf so often, that even the wolf won't come when called anymore. The LSM is looking like fools to everyone except die hard lefties. I will not buy any paper that hangs onto the detainee issue. We don't care. The Taliban behead people, they rape young girls before they stone them to death, they are subhuman creatures that deserve to be hit on the head with a shoe. I do not watch CBC or CTV anymore. If companies want their ads to be watched, they better start switching to blogs.

In this new year of 2010, let's make sure that our voices are heard. We can effect change by speaking out. The silent majority needs to get vocal.

We need to hear about real heroes:

Opposition Members Made To Look Idiotic!

Colvin appears for his testimony with a lawyer to guide him. Our proud military Generals appear with facts and an unwavering conviction that they did everything right. Colvin might have gone outside the Kandahar gates once or twice, with FULL military support. The Generals were on the ground, with the troops on hundreds of occasions.

The opposition is worried about Taliban prisoners, how about they worry about what the Taliban did to their own people, especially women?



The Generals were worried about our troops on the ground. Those troops are risking their lives to protect Afghans from the Taliban.



In 2006 our troops were too busy trying to stay alive to care what happened to the people shooting to kill them. They still treated all prisoners with respect.

Our opposition parties look like they are in support of the Taliban with their little torture committee. It might play to the extreme lefties, but it makes most Canadians sick. The Taliban are despicable, and if you want to see torture, try googling taliban beheading. I am not recommending that anyone click on any of those links, I didn't, I don't have to actually see it to know it happens. Still, maybe someone should make our MP's watch some of those videos so they can get their heads straight, the Taliban are the enemy, not our troops.

General Hillier's testimony should have been embarrassing for the opposition, who mouthed, the required "we respect the troops" and went on to accuse the Generals and our troops of wrong doing. To see the whole thing, click here, it's worth watching.

The opposition have called the Generals liars and they responded back with facts. I would like to know which opposition MP called our Generals liars, because the Generals should sue them. So, who was it? Which MP called Hillier a liar outside of the protection of Parliament? Just because they are MP's should not give them the right to destroy a person's reputation for partisan reasons.

Preventing Ambassador Mulroney from testifying, is just playing political games. The opposition only want one side of the story presented. Do they understand that real lives are at stake in war? The lives of our troops are way more important than any "supposed" torture of the Taliban prisoners by Afghans. The Generals made that perfectly clear today.

Quit it, you are making yourselves look like idiots.

Smear The Conservative Bully Boys!

This article by Weston is a typical smear the Conservatives article. Weston has his opinion, here is my response.

Comment Columnists / Greg Weston
Feds stick to see-no-evil script

Conservative bully-boys put the boots to Colvin over his Afghanistan bombshell


If you believe Stephen Harper's bully boys putting the boots to Colvin this past week, the former top political attache in Afghanistan and now deputy intelligence chief in Washington has no credibility. Who's telling the truth? You be the judge.

In April 2006, Colvin began a 17-month posting in Afghanistan as political director and deputy ambassador, one of only two officials there with access to the Canadian government's hyper-secure "C4" communications network.


So, Colvin began a 17 month posting in April of 2006. The Conservatives won the election in January. The Liberals signed the original prisoner agreement, they are the ones responsible for the prisoner transfer rules. Is Colvin telling us the Liberals did nothing about the prisoners? Weston doesn't mention the Liberals and their Taliban prisoners. Funny that. Weston is a sad little supposed reporter, not of the news, but of Liberal issues that need propping up.

More likely, the Harper government was just trying to cover up the whole thing -- sacrificing Canadian lives to bring torture to Afghanistan isn't exactly the stuff to inspire public support. Indeed, Colvin claims various superiors in Ottawa tried to get him to drop the detainee issue, but he persisted.


You sad little Liberal toady.... Sacrificing Canadian lives? It was Chretien who sent our troops into battle in green fatigues. It was the Liberals who set up the transfer arrangement. It was Liberals who refused to fund our military so that they could only die for our country.

A month after he arrived, Colvin issued his first of several dozen reports detailing concerns about Canadian forces turning over Afghan prisoners to "serious, imminent and alarming" abuse at the hands of local authorities.

Colvin reported his sources were "highly credible," adding he also "obtained first-hand reports of torture and personally saw evidence of injuries related to torture suffered by detainees."


Did Colvin, personally ever go to an Afghan jail to verify his claims? Did Colvin ever personally see an Afghan prisoner tortured? Did Colvin ever talk directly to Hillier? Did Colvin ever directly talk to Minister O'Conner? Did Colvin ever talk to the tooth fairy when he was younger?

Of course, it is possible the bureaucrats kept the potentially explosive detainee issue to themselves to give their political masters "plausible deniability" if it blew up.

More likely, the Harper government was just trying to cover up the whole thing -- sacrificing Canadian lives to bring torture to Afghanistan isn't exactly the stuff to inspire public support. Indeed, Colvin claims various superiors in Ottawa tried to get him to drop the detainee issue, but he persisted.


Let's see, the bureaucrats had been hired by the Liberals. Remember that the Conservatives only won government in January of 2006, this is April, only 4 months later. Weston spews about "plausible deniability". How about the bureaucrats wanting to make the Conservative government look bad. We all know that the foreign affairs department resents any restraints on their power. Colvin is a bureaucrat.


Canada's then top general Rick Hillier wrote in his recently released book that "we lost confidence that basic, reasonable measures were in place to ensure the humane treatment of prisoners."

Hillier bluntly rejects claims by Harper's officials that the PM was kept in the dark on the issue. Even to this day, despite Colvin's 17 months of memos, Harper and his ministers continue to plead ignorance.


I wonder if Weston can be called on his article. Given our freedom of speech laws, I suspect he can spew anything he wants to, but the fun thing is that I can spew as much as he does. He might have a bigger audience, but my audience is dedicated to our cause. Yikes that sounds NDP'ish.

Weston loses all credibility when he labels Conservatives "Bully Boys". He is a typical name calling Liberal, just like all my trolls. Too bad he isn't an unbiased journalist, most blogger are better than he is.
