Britons and other Europeans also come into the US from Canada. So do
Mexicans, Japanese, Indians and Russians. So what. Hell even Canadians come
from Canada to the US. There are terrorists in all of the countries I
mentioned. So does that give the US government the right to kidnap them and
send them to somewhere else where he could be tortured?
The guy was not staying in the US, he was changing planes to end his
journey in Montreal, PQ Canada. He was not sneaking into the US. In
contrast he was trying to get out of the country. His only crime so far, he
slightly knew someone who may have been suspected of having terrorist ties.
I say suspected because the American government has offered no substantive
evidence that Alkamadi was in any way associated with any terrorist group.
