Looks like an Obama Admin “failure of imagination” is assessing what kind of attack a highly trained al Qaeda warrior like bin Qumu might be capable of.

Terrorists are like Pedophiles, there is no cure other than two behind the ear.

How come and why for do they refer to the previous President as “Bush” (not in this article, but in general), but it’s “Mr. Qumu”, “Mr. Hasadi” and even “Mr. bin Laden”?

This is a very bad guy!

At Quantanamo under Bush they said don’t release him back to Libya unless he is detained. The Qaddhafi let him out after a only a year!

From article at another thread:

The guard’s tale suggests that whoever ordered the assault was able to call on a large number of people to carry out what appeared to be an organized attack.

Wanis al Sharif, the deputy interior minister responsible for Libya’s eastern region, which includes Benghazi, told a group of local reporters that in addition to the four people under arrest, authorities are monitoring others for possible involvement.

“There is a group under our control, and there is another we are monitoring,” Sharif said.

Sharif said that Ansar al Shariah’s leaders had suggested that those carrying the group’s flag during the assault were rogue members acting on their own.

“They called me and told me you have wronged us,” Sharif said.

“They told me that there may be individual acts.”

Extremist group

Ansar al Shariah — Partisans of Islamic law — which is based in Benghazi, is one of the largest Islamic extremist groups operating in Libya, according to an analysis published Wednesday by Aaron Zelin of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy.

The shadowy organization is led by Muhammad Zahawi and maintains “online connections” to a similarly named group in Tunisia.

A unit, or katiba, based in Derna, an eastern town from which extremists made their way to fight U.S. forces in Iraq, is commanded by a former Guantanamo Bay prison detainee, Abu Sufayan bin Qumu, according to Zelin.

Where Sharif’s findings would fit in the U.S. investigation into the death of Ambassador Christopher Stevens and the other Americans remain unclear. But the guard’s tale suggests that many more than four people were involved in the attack.

Who was that that wanted Gitmo shut down? Seems like I heard a campaign promise like that back in the last Presidential election. Which party was that that made Gitmo a campaign issue?
