I'm with McGrath. Omar Khadr WAS a child soldier, heavy on the soldier. He was fighting other soldiers in a battle. If some soldiers want to label other soldiers as criminals, well, a pot is justified in calling a kettle black. The kettle's accusation of swarthiness is equally valid.

The way Omar Khadr has been treated, by his parents, by the USA, and by Canada, is disgraceful. Everyone who connived at his incarceration and show-trial should be ashamed of themselves. As a Canadian, I am ashamed of my country's role in the affair.
