The Obama administration has tentatively agreed to release four Taliban leaders from Guantanamo prison and allow them to resettle in Afghanistan, Paul Sperry of the Hoover Institution wrote in the New York Post. Sperry, the author of the book Infiltration, said that Afghan President Hamid Karzai wants to free some top Taliban commanders who led deadly attacks on American troops when the United States invaded Afghanistan after 9/11. Among the prisoners are some of the most dangerous detainees remaining at Gitmo, and include a former Taliban deputy intelligence chief, former interior minister, defense chief and military commander, Sperry wrote. Shockingly, the Obama administration has tentatively agreed to release the four suspected terrorists if Karzai can certify they no longer pose a threat, he said. They must disavow terrorism and any allegiance to al-Qaida. Karzai claims his government obtained such assurances in a recent trip to Gitmo, according to Sperry. He noted that a recent intelligence report found that more than one in four of the 600 former Guantanamo detainees rejoined the jihad. The agreement comes as there appears to be rampant infiltration of Taliban insurgents in the Afghan national army and police, he wrote. The Obama administration agreed to the deals, according to Sperry, in order to help stabilize Afghanistan ahead of the 2014 withdrawal of troops. They also help Obama fulfill his 2008 campaign pledge to empty and shutter Gitmo, he wrote. Antiwar activists among his base are upset hes freed just 70 detainees, leaving 168. The White House last month confirmed the president still plans on closing the prison camp.

I would assume his Indonesian passport would dispelled that notion.
Obama has something up his sleeve and you can bet it’s not going to go in America’s Favor !
Our peerless Agent of Chaos continues to reek havoc on the US population from the inside.
This statement leaves me speechless.
Obama figures the muslims aren’t killing enough of our guys fast enough so he is sending in the reinforcements.
Send them to live with Pelosi and Reid. They will welcome them like long lost relatives, don’t ya think? Or, perhaps Kerry will want one.
He is not stupid. He is pure evil and every decision he makes is calculated to destroy America and Americans.
this is way beyond the point of Obama being naive. He is the enemy within.
“Gutsy call!”
the guy is a first class jerk...HE IS NOT A REAL AMERICAN
SUrprised he isn’t releasing them into NYC.
They should be set free about 100 clicks off of Gitmo and allowed to swim home.
Do they get in-state tuition and voter ID?
Among his crowd that will be considered a resume enhancement.
And food stamps?
