Ian McDiarmid

A man whose adventures and escapades will manage to woo the hearts of few, and create a chuckle from many. He has saved a small African village from the onslaught of an Elephant stampede with his bare hands, and has beaten multiple chess Grand Champions. He has performed open heart surgery and is in a billboard top 100 band. He has fished in the arctic in a speedo, and has outrun a cheetah. But he has never had a tumblr. Until now.

Omar Khadr, a sixteen year old Guantanamo Bay detainee weeps uncontrollably, clutching at his face and hair as he calls out for his mother to save him from his torment. “Ya Ummi, Ya Ummi (Oh Mother, Oh Mother),” he wails repeatedly, hauntingly with each breath he takes.

The surveillance tapes, released by Khadr’s defence, show him left alone in an interrogation room for a “break” after he tried complaining to CSIS (Canadian Security Intelligence Service) officers about his poor health due to insufficient medical attention. Ignoring his complaints and trying to get him to make false confessions, the officers get frustrated with the sixteen year old’s tears and tell him to get himself together by the time they come back from their break.

“You don’t care about me. Nobody cares about me,” he sobs to them.

The tapes show how the officers manipulated Khadr into thinking that they were helping him because they were also Canadian and how they taunted him with the prospect of home (Canada), (good) food, and familial reunion.

Khadr, a Canadian, was taken into US custody at the age of fifteen, tortured and refused medical attention because he wouldn’t attest to being a member of Al Qaeda, even though he was shot three times in the chest and had shrapnel embedded in his eyes and right shoulder. As a result, Khadr’s left eye is now permanently blind, the vision in his right eye is deteriorating, he develops severe pain in his right shoulder when the temperature drops, and he suffers from extreme nightmares.

He has been incarcerated at Guantanamo Bay since 2002, suffering extremely harsh interrogations and torture (methods), and is now 25 years old.

They shot him twice for the crime of hiding behind a bush (from the fighting) and then arrested him for having the gall not to die.

Read 24+ Before you judge this kid. Just cause he is crying on a video, doesn’t mean he is innocent.

Sidenote they shot him twice for throwing a grenade and killing an American Serviceman while pretending to be wounded. Not hiding under a bush.
