I'm sure the progressives will be just fine with it if it happens, seeing as they're more concerned with the fact that Israel dared to fight back against her horrible "Palestinian" aggressors.
OTTAWA - Government sources say Prime Minister Stephen Harper has instructed Canadian officials to ask Saudi Arabia for clemency for a Montreal man sentenced to death by beheading.
No fair trial in Saudi "justice".
Progressives are opposed to the death penalty. I guess that means in the free world only, as, after all, they're not demonstrating against Saudi atrocities on both the guilty and the innocent.
Don't expect any outcry from the ranks of the progressives.
It doesn't even matter to them that there was no fair trial. There's no such thing in Wahhabist Saudi Arabia.
Then again, there's also no such thing in Canada's Liberal Fascist "Human Rights" Commissions, who, although they don't chop off peoples' heads, don't allow fair trials, either, and don't care about evidence. And the conviction rate is 100%.
Listen to the progressive political parties fail to stand up for human rights in the world.
If progressives are fine with executions in the non-free world, they ought to be fine with exectutions of such folks as Clifford Olson, Paul Bernardo and Karla Homolka, who is free after a very short sentence for raping and killing young girls, including her own little sister. So, if the progressives remain silent on this latest Saudi sentence, then they have no business opposing the death penalty in the free world for those found guilty in a fair trial of murder. And they have no business demanding that the Canadian government somehow prevent Canadian murderers from being executed in America for murder.
As far as I'm concerned, we ought to invade, occupy and permanently colonize Saudi Arabia. Oh, yes, absolutely! (Please, oh, please, Balbulican, quote me on this!) Why not? We will uphold human rights; they won't. So why won't the progressives get onside with this concept? Oh, yes... they'll make something up as an excuse, but, as usual, it'll be completely invalid.
Countries such as Saudi Arabia deserve to be colonized. Better to colonize and liberate than to ignore the plight of the innocent.
What's better, for an evil, hateful regime to invade and brutally occupy a good regime or for a good regime to colonize a regime that commits increasing atrocities and other human rights abuses on the innocent?
Oh, and also... we must, with strong determination, ensure that evil, hateful ideologies such as Wahhabist Islam never, never, never gain a toehold in the free world. If they did, imagine the eventual horrors when, eventually, they come to power via, ironically, election, and implement a Wahhabist/Sharia regime. It's only fair, as the Saudis themselves are murderously intolerant of any mention of any ideology that isn't hardcore Islamic.
Oh, and, clearly, there must never be a "Palestinian" state. For many real, truthful, perfectly valid reasons the progressives refuse to listen to. The progressives prefer lies and gleefully spread them as furiously as possible. Particularly in the mainstream media.
