PM Fails to Discuss Prisons In Afghanistan

While he played ball hockey with Canadian troops in Kandahar, and autographed PMO hockey balls (remember the PMO golf balls) Stephen Harper studiously avoided any discussion of prison conditions and prisoner rights in Afghanistan.

Karzai on prison torture: 'Probably that story is not true'

Nor did he demand the release of a Canadian taken prisoner by the Kharzai government last week.

Harper being the voice of law and order and the new security state the first victim of his authoritarian politics is justice and natural law such as 'innocent until proven guilty'.

All sides breach humanitarian law in Afghanistan: Amnesty
