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 36-year-old Mehdi Ghezali.
Ghezali reportedly arrived in Bulgaria five weeks before the bombing and arrived at the airport via taxi, Channel 2 reported. He was also reportedly given the bomb by someone else, but no further details were provided.

Ghezali has a Wikipedia page, which describes him as 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, it says. He was taken into custody on suspicion of being an al-Qaeda agent, having been arrested along with a number of other al-Qaeda operatives.

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

This reminds me that I've promised to shut down Gitmo and let the rest of them go
I hope the Israelis and American Jews are suitably pissed!
bttt
This won’t hurt The Disaster’s overwhelming support from the Jewish voters.
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?
Especially since he was released from Gitmo on Bush’s watch.
Impeachment and immediate removal from office. NOW!
The murders were probably conditional for the release
by pRes_ _ent Obama the Undocumented Moslem Tyrant.
American jews would vote for Himmler if he was liberal. They don’t have a clue.
I’m sure Bush didn’t want to release any of them. But have you forgotten the hysteria stirred up by the left at that point?
What I want to know was why, if he was caught trying to cross into Afghanistan in 2009 (Bambi time), he wasn’t sent back to Gitmo right then and there.
I think that many American Jews will wake up, this time around.
Is this the guy they’re saying had a fake Michigan Diver’s license?
Our government-run PRAVDA media will cover this up. The blood of this bombing IS ON 0BAMA’S HANDS.
Because of this schmuck, my Mom almost lost 5 family members. They were on the bus right next to the one that exploded, the only reason why they were not on it was because the other bus was too full for them to go on, otherwise they would have been on that bus. So because of these Marxist left pricks, 5 Israelies(including a woman who was pregnant) lost their lives, but don’t worry Obama, most Jews will still vote for you
We are our own worst enemy. Being a complete p^ssy is fashionable now.
That won't matter to the Lefties.
...crickets.... Yep, those American Jews are going to jump right on this one...right after they vote for Obama again
You would vote for Himmler because you like the big lie method of Goebbels and company
Because Obama doesn’t want to jail a FELLOW MUSLIM!!
