Sending them back to China was not an option because of U.S. concerns that Chinese authorities, who consider them separatists, would immediately arrest the men.

A Chinese prison would make Gitmo look like Disneyland in comparison.

I know it's probably just me but every time I hear this group mentioned on the radio they pronounce "Uighurs" like "wiggers" and I always picture this guy:

So what’s to prevent a few Chinese “tourists” from visiting Palau in a few years and abducting the weegers?

Not a posh enough resort island for them? I was struck with the pix of the Uighurs in Bermuda how well fed they look. They certainly were not being starved at Club Gitmo!

what I like to know is why non-dangerous elements of al qaeda are still being held at Club Gitmo??!?! I thought Bush already released all those deem not dangerous already and the remaining ones are the most dangerous ones

The prisoners probably feel they would be too close to China and fear they would be captured.

Sending them back to China would be so much cheaper to us all. Now they, who btw, were training for jihad, will live off of our tax dollars and be celebrities just like we are seeing in Bermuda.

Palau can’t possibly protect them from ChiCom agents

Wow, we have to pay Palau 200 million to take care of terrorists?

Obambi made a deal with the island country of Palau to take the Uighur terrorists... For $12 million each.

Obama will pay $200 million to Palau to take some or all of the 17 Uighur terrorists held at Gitmo.
That’s $12 million per Uighur at least.

Obama had wanted to release the Uighurs who trained in Tora Bora with Al-Qaeda for some time now.
