There's a debate in Finland, and I'm sure in other countries, whether or not it is legal to deport anyone to the USA.
The constition of Finland prevents anyone from being deported into a country where they might be subject to human rights abuses, and USA has clearly announced that they will torture (it is torture at least in the liberal Finnish interpretation) anyone they suspect of terrorism.
This means, that everyone ranging from normal immigrants from USA to Terrorists plotting against the USA cannot be forcibly moved to the USA for trial or otherwise. It will also affect custody cases where one of the parent lives in USA.
Where to draw the line? Is this hairsplitting? What SHOULD be the policy in Your opinion?

I fail to see where communism comes in and I, in no part of my question told you anything of my personal opinion! You just automatically assumed that I was out to attack the USA.
If you find the question to reflect negatively on your country, DON'T BLAME ME FOR IT.

I don't see how this would be a problem unless the child in the custody case is accused of terrorism.

Well, many countries do not extradite criminals back to the USA because of differences in laws. For example, Italy refused to extradite a man wanted for muder in the US because the US has the death penalty. In most cases, extradition takes place anyways because the prosecutors can make a bargain that they will not seek the death penalty against the criminal if he is returned to stand trial.
I cannot see how this would effect custody cases and anything non-criminal in nature. These people would face no threat by the governement, therefore should not be given any kind of stay to remain away from the USA.
As for terrorism, I think there will be ways around sending terror suspects back to the States. The suspects can be handed over to the EU or to the World court and then extradited through them. However, if a country chooses not to extradite a suspected terrorist back to the US, that is fine. The terrorist can stay in your country and take up residency there. I would feel safe living next door to a suspected school bomber.

If they percieve that we support torture and their policy is not to deport or extradite on that policy, that's up to them. The same holds true for capital punishment. Many countries will not extradite somebody to the US if they face the death penalty.
Just shows that our policies can work against us in these situations.

Don't worry, sanity will prevail when the Democrats take over both Houses in November. And the Presidency in 2008.

First, we should abide by international law (and all principles of human decency) and stop torturing people.
Second, we should join the civilized nations of the world and get rid of the death penalty.
Then the problem would go away, and we and the world would be better for it.

I think that they should be able to deport anyone they want because it could threaten their national security if they keep everyone in. Also, if they're illegal, then they should give them a choice of becoming a legal citizen or deportation.

This is funny. If they don't want to deport them....well they can foot the bill for keeping them there. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
Personally...I feel that you have no rights any way if you are a terrorist.
