[includes rush transcript] An Iraq war resister who fled to Canada rather than return to the battlefield has gone into hiding again, a day after turning himself in to the military. Army Private Kyle Snyder traveled to Canada in April 2005 while on leave from active duty in Iraq. He applied for refugee status in Canada proclaiming that the war was �illegal and immoral� and that he was lied to by military recruiters. Last week, Kyle left Vancouver to surrender himself at Fort Knox, Kentucky. He says he had a deal with the military that he would be discharged once he turned himself in. Instead, military officials ordered him back to his original unit where his outcome would be decided. He went into hiding again on Tuesday after being dropped off at the Greyhound Bus station in Louisville Kentucky. Kyle Snyder joins us now from Louisville, Kentucky. We are also joined by Kyle Snyder�s attorney, Jim Fennerty. He joins us on the line from Chicago.
