This guy is a REAL WINNER, though the swedes are reportedly denying it’s him:

From Times Of Israel:

Bulgarian media on Thursday named the suicide bomber who blew up a bus full of Israeli tourists, killing five Israelis and a local bus driver, in the Black Sea resort of Burgas on Wednesday as Mehdi Ghezali.

Ghezali was reportedly a Swedish citizen, with Algerian and Finnish origins. He had been held at the US’s Guantanamo Bay detainment camp on Cuba from 2002 to 2004, having previously studied at a Muslim religious school and mosque in Britain, and traveled to Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, and Pakistan. He was released to Swedish custody in 2004, and the Swedish government did not press charges.

He was also reportedly among 12 foreigners captured trying to cross into Afghanistan in 2009.

FROM WIKI:

Mehdi Mohammad Ghezali, previously known as the Cuba-Swede (Swedish: Kubasvensken), is a Swedish citizen of Algerian and Finnish descent who was held as what the United States termed an unlawful combatant at the Guantanamo Bay detainment camp on Cuba between January 2002 and July 2004.

Prior to his capture Ghezali attended a Muslim religious school and mosque in the United Kingdom before travelling to Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, and finally ended up in Pakistan where he was captured. Following his release from detention the Swedish government has not brought any further criminal charges against him for criminal misconduct prior to his capture.

According to the Stockholm News Pakistani security officials “suspected Ghezali to have been involved in a prison uprising where 17 people were killed” — an assertion Ghezali is reported to have denied. A man bearing Ghezali’s passport was one of twelve foreigners Pakistani security officials reported were captured trying to cross into Afghanistan on 28 August 2009. According to the Associated Press Ghezali was “reportedly part of a group of 156 suspected Al-Qaeda fighters caught while fleeing Afghanistan’s Tora Bora mountains.

He was a HERO of the Anti-War Liberal Left. THIS IS ONE OF THE GUYS THAT Soros-Funded World-Can’t-Wait demanded be released from Gitmo. Remember the 2004 Stockholm Anti-War riot??

He was supported by both the Anti-War Eurosocialists, and Wikileaks.

The people behind World-Can’t-Wait are the very same people behind today’s “Occupy” movement. How’s that for synergy?

Swedish intelligence says it isn’t him. Ghezali has complained about constant surveillance by them and I suspect they wouldn’t come out with a statement saying it wasn’t him unless they know he’s alive and in Sweden right now.
