There is much more to this story than meets the eye. Boyle wouldn’t be arrested just for having been married to Zaynab Khadr. Trudeau just gave her brother Omar ten million dollars. Boyle must have been involved in jihad terror activity himself. Otherwise he would have no trouble boarding the plane.
“Canadian husband of American woman ‘refuses to board US plane in fear he will be punished for his previous marriage to a terror suspect’ after they are rescued in Pakistan with their three young children following five years in Taliban captivity,” by Jennifer Smith, Dailymail.com, October 12, 2017 (thanks to Bill):
A Canadian man who was rescued from his terrorist captors along with his American wife and their three children after spending five years as hostages refused to board a US military plane on Thursday over fears he will now face punishment over his first marriage to a known terror suspect.
Story continues below advertisementCaitlan Coleman, 31, was given back to US commandos along with her husband Joshua Boyle, 34, and their three young children after being rescued by Pakistani forces late on Wednesday night.
They were being transported in the trunk of a car from one location to another by their Haqqani-network captors when Pakistani forces ambushed their convoy and rescued them.
There was a shootout and Boyle told relatives the last words he heard were his kidnappers shouting ‘kill the hostages’. He was wounded by shrapnel and his captors were killed, one official said.
President Trump celebrated their release as a joint effort between US and Pakistani officials on Thursday.
However, Boyle is refusing to get on a US military plane at the air base in Bagram.
Instead, he wants to go to Islamabad – where the Canadian military has a base – and board one of its aircraft, according to The Toronto Star which has been in contact with his parents.
They say he fears he will be punished for his first marriage to al Qaeda supporter Zaynab Khadr, the older sister of Omar Khadr who spent eight years between 2002 and 2010 in Guantanamo Bay for war crimes he still denies.
Other military sources say he was previously questioned in Canada over his ties to the family.
Boyle and Khadr were married between 2009 and 2010. They grew close when he volunteered to be the family’s spokesman during the media row surrounding Omar’s detention.
A year after they separated, Boyle and Coleman – who have been friends since they were teenagers – got married.
Between 2009 and 2010, Boyle was married to Zaynab Khadr whose father was a close friend of Osama Bin Laden and who defended the 9/11 attacks. She is a Canadian citizen but is now believed to live in Sudan with her fourth husband and four children
In 2012, when she was five months pregnant, he took her to Afghanistan, a country he was ‘passionate’ about, and they were captured.
White House Chief of Staff Gen. John Kelly said on Thursday afternoon that troops had given Boyle and Coleman the option of going either to Canada or the US.
He did not confirm whether or not they have yet left Pakistan but said they have ‘essentially been living in a hole for five years’.
Since then, they have welcomed two sons and a daughter. In hostage videos, Coleman, who grew up in Pennsylvania, described being defiled in front of their children and suggested they’d had others who have died in captivity.
Friends of Boyle’s previously said Boyle had an ‘academic interest’ in terrorism and may have been converting to Islam when he was captured.
‘Josh said he was doing pretty well for someone who has spent the last five years in an underground prison,’ Patrick Boyle, the man’s father, told The Toronto Star.
Caitlan’s family in Pennsylvania taped a statement to their front door on Thursday after the news broke.
‘The Coleman family appreciates all the interest and concern being expressed at the joyful news that Caity, Josh and our grandchildren have been released after five long years in captivity.
‘At this time, we ask that everyone respect our privacy as we make plans for the future,’ it said.
Before Thursday, he and Caitlan were last seen in a video that was sent to their families in January with their two young sons.
Their daughter has never been seen and her existence only became known on Thursday when Boyle phoned his parents to confirm he was safe.
No ransom had ever been requested by their captors. Instead, the terrorists wanted US and Canadian officials to secure the release of Afghan prisoners in Kabul.
In hostage footage, Caitlan was dressed in a headscarf sitting next to her husband and their children who were seen for the first time.
The youngest boy, who was believed to have been born last September, had a pacifier in his mouth.
In as statement on Thursday, President Trump commended Pakistani officials for facilitating the exchange and said it was symbolic of the country’s renewed relationship with the US.
‘Yesterday, the US Government working in conjunction with the Government of Pakistan, secured the release of the Boyle-Coleman family from captivity in Pakistan
‘Today they are free. This is a positive moment for our country’s relationship with Pakistan.
‘The Pakistani government’s cooperation is a sign that it is honoring America’s wishes for it to do more to provide security in the region.
‘We hope to see this type of cooperation and teamwork in helping secure the release of remaining hostages and in our future joint counterterrorism operations,’ he said.
Later, at a press conference, he said: ‘They worked very hard on this and I believe they are starting to respect the US again. A lot of countries are starting to respect the US once again.’
Trump had criticized the country in the past for not doing enough to crack down on the Haqqanis. His administration has cranked up the pressure on the Pakistani government to do more in the global fight against terror….

When will the traitor and his family get their 10 million?
I bet (shiny pony) Turdeau is working on a way for them to receive some sort of financial payout.
That is why they wanted to come to CANADA instead of the USA.

Just asking…what the hell were they doing hiking in Afghanistan with her being 7 months pregnant. Then, after they’re captured by the Taliban he’s comfortable enough to get her pregnant 2 more times?! Something about the whole story is very fishy to me. Sounds like another Beau Bergdal scenario.

It would seen that this guy was dabbling in Islam well before he took his “hike” in Afghanistan, since he married an Islamist years before he got this “wanderlust”. He also, according to the UK Daily Mail, roamed through all of the “stans” along the southern border of Russia before he decided to “hike” into Afghanistan. We were never told before this “rescue” that he had prior links to Islam; this is new info. The press must have withheld information from us. Are they still withholding details?

This “man” has become an islamic convert and should be considered a HIGH Security Risk where ever he goes! He should NEVER be allowed into the United States, EVER! LOOK at the hate in his eyes, anyone can see it! HE IS A TERRORISTS NOW, send him to GitMo for life! Our Government is full of FOOLS by allowing this to happen. He WANTED to stay in Pakistan, STAY THERE?!? If I had been a “hostage” I would want to get the HELL out of there as fast as I could, but not this “terrorist”. Use the common sense that GOD gave all of you and take a VERY HARD LOOK at this muslim convert terrorist! THIS IS A HUGE MISTAKE! Mark my words.

If he was innocent, he’d have nothing to worry about, would he?

There is something here that has a terrible odor. After a few years in “captivity”, they look joyful and gay. The Taliban kept these folks for a reason, but………
Hiking around the back mountains of Afghanistan and KNOWING it is a war zone had alternate motives.
There are too many connections to al Qaeda and there are 3 kids that were not part of the initial hike.
If PROPERLY interrogated, something is gonna give……

They both are white. Nothing will be done to them. Everyone knows that there is no such thing as a white terrorist.

His presence in Afghanistan is highly suspicious, more so when he brought his whole family along. His earlier marriage to Khadr raises more suspicion as her family can be considered a nobility in Al Qaeda and Taliban. I would suspect he went there to settle in with the Talibans before being captured by the rival Haqqanis. Pamela is right, there is more than meets the eye.

This story stinks as much as the Las Vegas timeline, which is beginning to become a mare’s nest of lies and half truths and revisions, thanks to the FBI. Joshua was a kidnapping victim, and held hostage? Don’t make me laugh.

I has just occurred to me why Trudeau gave Omar Khadr all those millions. While Khadr is just a slimy terrorist to us, he must be a hero to the many Muslims. Trudeau would have bought a lot of votes and goodwill from his Muslim pals with those millions. They will never forget this act of largess on behalf of one of their own. Furthermore Trudeau’s party may be richly rewarded with political donations from wealthy Muslim sources for this.

IF it is true that the CANADIAN fears punishment or interrogation if he were to board the Freedom Bird back to civilization, then……
HE HAS SOMETHING TO HIDE and/or knows something and so boarding a plane back to the land of Allah’s second family, Canada, is his best bet, for Canada pays Allah’s buddies of Islam in any capacity…..
Question is, how much does Canada think he is worth? Will Canada pay off his wife? Kids? And speaking of kids, how do we know they will not become the kids of Allah. Get my drift????

Upon seeing a news snippet of this self-righteous nutter; I am sure that the Canadian government will beatify him. One can grasp why his American father-in-law is more than a bit p’d with his son-in-laws seeming fascination, if not imbecilic infatuation and obsessiveness with Islamic Terror… he is difficult to define, button down, as he is, in my opinion, veiled in his self-importance, and piety. His wife appears to be submissive to this man… “me Tarzan, you Jane”; perhaps much like those of certain religions… Islam is one, but sadly, not the only religion of this misogynistic bent; admittedly Islam is the worst. My confusion with this nutter is, he projects as a holier-than-thou Christian but comes through as a hardcore Muslim, which he would deny. As said, this guy is slippery and a pompous nutter. I feel for his wife but more so the children.

Something about this family stinks, to much of it doesn’t make any sense. Jr. and his Lib government will open up the money stream for them to suck off of for years. GOD I hope western Canada separates from the rest of the country so we don’t have to put up with this Liberal crap.

Something smells fishy in the state of Denmark…and it stinks. Did we just unleash another Trojan Horse into the West? I seem to be lacking any empathy for this…family. Bears close watching.

Are they? “They” train them from birth in the ways of “allah.” NO capital on purpose. Who breeds in captivity? Underground? Remember, they think they are going to conquer by sheer numbers. And that starts as children.

I have a feeling this man went to Afghanistan as a sympathiser ISIS fighter read his history of marrying into the family of a top Taliban fighter, see the way he grows his beard and shaves moustache ( typical Salafi), his wife shoulders headdress. If someone lived in a hole in the ground for five years with his wife, how did they manage to have four children. the whole family look well treated not had a harsh time as captive would been.

Passionate about Afghanistain — a state that is 100% f’ing muslum. Oops, except for that one last Jewish Afghani man, so it’s only 99.99999999999999999999999999999% muslum.
