    The Khadr Thread

    The epistemological implications are such.  There are only a few ways in which CSIS can get info on Gitmo.  1) From the U.S 2) Conducting its own investigations 3) Open sources 4) Other nations.

    The Khadr Thread

    Ahh I can agree with that.  It was just the part of the statement were CSIS said there were factual mistakes.

    MCDVs and future usage

    Sounds good in principle.  But their slow speed is a tactical disadvantage should it have to face off against some terrorist speedboats in a Canadian harbour.  I would maybe fix some Javellin's as well to compensate.  But it is better than nothing.

    The Khadr Thread

    How would CSIS know what is going on at Gitmo though?  They don't.  How can one say it is not factual just because you don't happen to have facts about this?  Just because you can't or unable to confirm something didn't happen doesn't mean it didn't.    I am not saying CSIS is wrong or right...

    The Khadr Thread

    But the obfuscation is coming from the linking of Khadr with war crimes committed by the HJ.  I was trying to demonstrate that what Khadr did was by no means a war crime, but comparable to what HJ were doing at the Battle of Berlin-not the war crimes committed by the 12 SS Panzer Division. ...

    U.S. Army to shoot live pigs for medical drill

    Don't they realize that a lot of civilian advances in treating trauma is following in the footsteps of military medicine?

    The Khadr Thread

    The HJ left no records for the Allies to find?  When the Abwehr, SS, Gestapo and every other Nazi organization including the concentration camps did. Highly unlikely!  My point is that the Allies did not try the children of the HJ precisely because they were children not because they could not...

    The Khadr Thread

    Old Sweat you are off the mark. From wikipedia: The Hitler Youth was disbanded by Allied authorities as part of the Denazification process. Some HJ members were suspected of war crimes but - as they were children - no serious efforts were made to prosecute these claims. While the HJ was never...

    The Khadr Thread

    Let's see after the Second World War did Canadian servicemen and women go around rounding up Hitlerjugend to be hanged from the Peace Tower?  (Now that's ironic; even more so then no fighting in the war room a la Dr. Strangelove).  Or did we try to rehabilitate them?  Did we doom them to death...

    The Khadr Thread

    Wow Haggis that's lots of speculation.  It ignores the fact the Toronto Cell was under constant CSIS, police and even DND surveillance and that the state would have not been monitoring Khadr after his release.  The Toronto Cell did not need a 15 year old teaching them-they had there own...

    The Khadr Thread

    Guess what no one on this site was there when this event happened so we really don't know what the heck happened.  We are speculating at best.  However,  I think most members would agree that were they to screw up in the course of the military careers that they would be entitled to due...

    Tavor

    I was wondering if anyone on this forum has even gotten the opportunity to try out the Israeli Tavor?  Would the CF ever consider this weapon for its inventory?
