Bleeding Hearts

The Prime Minister and I must have the same thought process, because my intentions were to address this issue before he could, but he's beaten me to the punch. http://tinyurl.com/2b4v2z We were definitely on the same page on this one ever sense the Opposition has made a national outrage, the fact that concerns that the Taliban’s human rights as a prisoner of war supersede concerns that of our own Armed Forces to win the hearts and minds of the Afghan people. Why the manufacture outrage over a barbarian hoard who punish women with a savage beating for the inadvertently clicking of their heels on the street? Where women would be beheaded for leaving their dwellings without the company of a man. Where girls are denied to benefit of an education. What greater human rights cause than that of the women of Afghanistan, but who are the socialists sympathies with... that's right the agents of terror and despotism.Soft on terror, soft on crime... those are the undeniable facts about liberals. How is it we are so sanctimoniously smug to think that Taliban human rights should take precedent over the rights of those they have mercilessly beaten, repeatedly raped, and murdered, over the human rights of their own victims? Since when is it our divine right to tell them how to met out justice to their own as they have done so since biblical times, and will continue to do so where we do not hear of it nor imagine they do torture to? As for cries for Gordon O'Connor to step down as Defense Minister, they are at best laughable unless they can provide evidence to the effect that he set out to deliberately to mislead parliament into thinking the Red Cross would report any prisoner abuses to Canada, was not just a humiliating oversight on his part. He has already provided a graceful and contrite apology to parliament for his misspeaking himself on this subject, what more do they want...a pound of flesh?
