Letter to Globe - Aug 26th

Contrary to the Globe's politically correct support of both Khadr and the Supreme Court, the route to justice is not always in caving in to criminals and supporting a "nice" socialist stand. The recent case of the release of the Lockerbie monster on compassion stands is proof that Western courts have gone much too far in their support for evil people. Mr. Khadr, even though a teenager, chose to fight with terrorists against a democratic ally of Canada, and in so doing participated either directly or indirectly in the killing of at least one American soldier. Justice and Canadian security should keep him out of Canada, and not allow him to return to help undermine our country. In this case the need for public security supersedes the right of an individual to receive a grossly excessive benefit of the doubt.
