Just so everyone knows, the Canadian government did not want this scumbag returned to Canada. The government fought against his return in the courts. The US could have kept him indefinitely and the Harper government would not have protested.

Obama's policy is, of course, to close Gitmo. To do so, you first have to release all the inmates. This release is a step towards that goal.

Just think about the thought process that goes into dealing with un-uniformed terrorists.
They should be dealt with by firing squad and laid in an open grave to rot as a warning
to the rest of them. But now that PC has taken over the world leadership
positions and placating to the whims of a minority is quo, we've grown into a pansy mansy
pipe dream world where nobody wants to deal with reality.

Well, the reality is that these killers and Terrorists are not going anywhere
but hell, and they don't care how they get there so long as they take a few of us with them.
But hey, that just happens to "other people" right?

Politicians are scared to act Properly in dealing with terrorism because
they may lose their plush job, and are constantly lambasted and warned not to
do anything outside of feeding terrorists grapes from the vine. Sometimes these leaders
need to hear the silent "majority" who support lethal actions against Terrorism.
The silent Majority needs to step up to the plate and start drowning out the
flower child leftovers from the 60s and those youths who are just now becoming aware
that the world does not revolve around them.

The proper quote here would be about good men doing nothing for evil to prevail.

For years the lefty media up here was showing pictures of “poor little Omar” that one could compare to the pictures of “poor little Trayvon”.
Little Omar was not a misguided youth by any stretch of the imagination. He is (was) a hard core terrorist.

Next they’ll all be sleeping in the Lincoln bedroom and sitting on the SCOTUS. Oh, nevermind.
