The story was packed with unadulterated BS. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/2016\/aug\/02\/iraq-war-resisters-canada-trudeau-us-military\">The Guardian<\/a>, Key is still in Canada and begging their stank-ass hippie Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, to stay there.<\/p>\n<p>I guess what is surprising is the Guardian&#8217;s claim that most of Canada wants the criminals to stay;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Polls suggest most Canadians support the idea of allowing war resisters to stay in the country, with 63% saying in June that they should be allowed to become permanent residents. \u201cI don\u2019t think this is surprising,\u201d said Michelle Robidoux of the War Resisters Support Campaign, which assists Iraq war resisters as they forge new lives in Canada, pointing to Canadians\u2019 widespread opposition to the Iraq war and the welcome extended to resisters during the Vietnam war.<\/p>\n<p>Across the country, others have also gone out of their way to help the war resisters. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Good. They can keep them. Let Canadian taxpayers pay for their keep and give us a break. The only reason that Key and his pals won&#8217;t come back to the US now is because they don&#8217;t want to pay for breaking faith with the American people. The others who have come back spent about 8 months in jail and got on with their lives. When Obama didn&#8217;t issue them a blanket pardon like Jimmy Carter did in his first day in office, they were disappointed when the others went to jail. if we can&#8217;t put them in jail, let them stay in Canada.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to Lucky for the link.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back in 2009, TSO wrote one of his first posts here at TAH about Joshua Key&#8217;s &hellip; <a title=\"Canadians want to keep Iraq War absconders\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=67283\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Canadians want to keep Iraq War absconders<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":58166,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[131],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-67283","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-i-hate-hippies"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67283","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=67283"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67283\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/58166"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=67283"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=67283"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=67283"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
