So...

Is this what we're fighting for?

Afghan journalist Sayed Pervez Kambaksh was sentenced to 20 years for downloading information deemed anti-Islamic by an Afghan "court." The sentence was reduced to 20 years from the death penalty after intense pressure from the world community. Lucky him.

The Canadian government is good at talking about our "values." Maybe this is a good opportunity for us to exert our reputation and influence to express our disapproval of these sham proceedings. After all, we're spilling enough blood in Afghanistan.
