My question is “how many lawyers, Democrat PACs, politicians and human rights geeks were clamoring for release of Gitmo Prisoners during the runup to this?”
Sad but true.
I assume we got some good intel from these guys, but I wonder if it would have been better if they just got killed on the battlefield during their capture.
My question is where do I find the guy.
I could use the 5 mill.
I could too. But you know that Obama doesn’t ever, EVER deliver on what he’s promised. Fair warning!
rinse and repeat.
Was it Bush who signed the release or was it some ACLU lawyer who worked the system?
Obama has directly worked for release. I’m not aware that Bush did.
In a case like this, where jihadis have been released from custody, there really should be no return to prison. Sweat them for whatever they know, then summary execution.
While Bush was president, for sure, Holder’s law firm got a couple dozen jihadis released.
@Was it Bush who signed the release or was it some ACLU lawyer who worked the system?”
“Obama has directly worked for release. I’m not aware that Bush did.”
Something here sounds fishy.
Maybe this guy slipped through the cracks or a Democratic mole in the DoD or State Department signed for him to be released.
It could even be that once Obama took office, this released terrorist became even more radicalized and had to be placed on the capture list.
Wouldn’t it have been more cost effective to have kept him in Gitmo?
This time I hope he’ brought in draped over a saddle.
Why not insert a gps device in these guys that’s not radio opaque....?
Why? So that they can then release him again?
All it takes is a stupid politician who feels compassion or wants to flex ‘their’ muscle - both democrat and republican to kill thousands or millions of people. It seems they nearly all walk away with lots of money and live a long life.
Sadly, it was indeed Bush, Condi Rice, and Bandar who cooked up the Saudi rehab scheme to try and get the Saudi prisoners out of Gitmo for political reasons on both ends.
Marron in post #9 is correct. I remember Holder and his people working diligently to lawyer these detainees up and work for their release. At least #2 or #3 under Holder who worked at DOJ recently specialized in this.
Bush should have hung every inmate in gitmo before leaving office!
It was the exact same kind of thinking that got Hamas elected in Gaza, and Musharraf tossed out in Pakistan. All disasters, and they were Bush and Condi's fault.
Period.
