You've got to be f-ing kidding me.<BR/><BR/>Theory: the Canadians asked the US to hold them until the bruises faded from the Iran torture, so they could deny asylum a second time.

He and his parents were detained while on their way to Canada to seek political asylum. Iranian immigration officials came on to the plane, detained the family, later turning them over to the Americans. The whole thing is sickening and in some ways reminds me of the Maher Arar incident. The bush gov't is populated with criminals. I cannot wait for the house of cards to tumble.HopeSpringsATurtlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01674162196011919272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27627502.post-17275109257422158552007-03-22T11:44:00.000-07:002007-03-22T11:44:00.000-07:00Hi hope, thanks for pointing this out.You know, ma...Hi hope, thanks for pointing this out.<BR/><BR/>You know, maybe I have ADHD, but I CANNOT figure out what is this family's story.<BR/><BR/>How can he be a canadian citizen (that means he was born in Canada) and his parents be on their way to seek asylum?<BR/><BR/>Did you figure this out?<BR/><BR/>When I first heard about this, I was quite upset, because I couldn't understand why americans will be detaining Iranian-Canadians. But apparently they are not.<BR/><BR/>You know, a couple of months ago, Royal Bank of Canada stopped opening US$ accounts for Canadians of Iranian origin!!!!! <BR/><BR/>The neoconservatives/Zionists in Canada are far more dangerous than American ones!Najhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17728668942925956610noreply@blogger.com
