Canada can do what it wants. We appear to think he has some connection to AQ, and since he is a Syrian citizen, sent him back. If you have a problem with how Syria treats their citizens, maybe you should be criticizing them. All we did was put him on a plane. I applaud my country for kicking out undesirables. The US is not open to terrorists, even if Canada welcomes them.

The point is that Arar, isn't and was never a terrorist and a royal commision in Canada exonerated him completely. Get your facts straight. Where do you get off saying he's an undesireable. The whole point of this matter is that he isn't and never was! He's an innocent Canadian citizen. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/01/23/wo.../23terror.html Your post is bordering on offensive and it's certainly in the realm of obnoxious. Don't worry, he is in the middle of suing the US government. Senator Leahy, who heads the Senate Judicial Committee, is in the process of hauling Attorney-General Gonzales's ass onto the carpet for this gross injustice.
