According to Canada's National Post of Thursday, September 26th, 2002 a Canadian is slated to be executed by the Saudi Arabians for allegedly planting 2 car bombs. He confessed to the crime. Unfortunately, it is alleged that the Saudis elicited this confession by hanging him upside down by ropes for a week and threatening his family. ie they tortured him.Of course, to use the logic of the western elites, his alleged treatment would be the fault of the US and other western powers who have humiliated and oppressed the powers of the developing world and, as a result, they hate us. Only in Canada you say? Pity. Cicero in addition to being Rome's best orator was a Roman lawyer often defending disreputable clients
