Maybe he’s getting impatient, waiting for that “flexibility” to show up.

They always do...they missed the guy hiding in the boat, they didn’t connect the MIT shooting with the bombers, they didn’t see a bombing coming even though there were several reports of bombs going off in the countryside in the weeks leading up to the event.

They missed the underwear bomber even though his dad called and told them his son was going to pull something. They missed Richard Reid, they missed 9/11, they missed the 93 bombing, they missed OKC...

they wouldn’t have found these two if the guy that lost two legs hadn’t called from the emergency room and told them which one was involved...

yet we still continue to purchase millions of dollars in technology and battering rams for our police in the name of safety.

Exactly! I predicted this thing would be Benghazied and over in less than a week once the kid is caught its through. Don't forget while the chaos ensues the Senate is doing amnesty while the entire country is diverted,some coincidence.

If amnesty passes with the regime getting five years to get border security right its over for us. If this story lives it will be because we keep it and Benghazi alive.

We need to find out why the FBI let these clowns into the US.

You will not find anything in English.

But, an ex-FBI agent says so.
Brennan has referenced al Quds specifically, in public
He has said Islam is beautiful
He testified that ‘jihad is a holy struggle, a legitimate tenet of Islam.’
He has said that Islam is peace.

He equivocates. He confuses. And he is well-placed, isn’t he.

Look to that speech that Brennan gave in Arabic. He, in Arabic, said "if Allah wills" (i.e. "in shallah").

Folks who aren't muslim don't say that. And then he said, "please don't repeat this to non-muslims."

As you know, circumstantial evidence is enough to send a man/woman to the gas chamber. This is circumstantial evidence worth at least that.

If you need the actually video, I will go in search of it and provide you with the link.

Don’t worry. Whoever is detained will end up dead, files sealed, people paid off.

Information overload. They have so much information that they are drowning it. Coupled with the PC notions that you can’t profile a Moos-limb and it’s the bitter right wing Christian gun clingers who are more dangerous than Islam. Soetoro, Incompetano, and their Senate counterparts are the ones with this blood on their hands.

“The FBI determined Tsarnaev represented no threat, according to CBS News”

Bad call, or orders from Valerie Jarrett? Inquiring minds want to know?

Would assume they knew the names when they released the pictures in their press conference. Don’t remember them giving any more details.

They are all working at justice:

DOJ Lawyers Who Represented Terrorism Suspects Detainees Are Identified

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

Fox News has identified the seven anonymous Justice Department lawyers who previously represented Guantánamo detainees or terrorism suspects.

Justice Department spokesman Matthew A. Miller confirmed the names to Fox News’ Mike Levine, but did not say whether any of the seven previously anonymous lawyers now work on issues related to Guantánamo detainees.

“Each of the nine people referenced in the letter filed legal briefs that are available by using something as simple as Google,” Miller told Fox News. “We will not participate in an attempt to drag people’s names through the mud for political purposes.”

Miller said “politics has overtaken facts and reality” in the battle over the lawyers’ identities. (Full statement below)

The current Justice Department employees who previously represented Guantánamo detainees or terrorism suspects are:
•Tony West, the Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Division.
•Jonathan Cedarbaum, of the Office of Legal Counsel.
•Eric Columbus, senior counsel in the Office of the Deputy Attorney General.
•Karl Thompson, of the Office of Legal Counsel.
•Joseph Guerra, Principal Deputy Associate Attorney General.
•Tali Farhadian, an official in the Office of the Attorney General.
•Beth Brinkmann, Deputy Assistant Attorney General in the Civil Division.

Two other DOJ lawyers — Principal Deputy Solicitor General Neal Katyal and National Security Division Attorney Jennifer Daskal – also formerly represented detainees, but their identities had already been known.

In response to the DOJ confirmation, Keep America Safe spokesman Aaron Harison said the organization still wants information on which of the lawyers works on detainee issues within the DOJ.

“The American people have a right to know whether lawyers who voluntarily flocked to Guantanamo to take up the cause of the terrorists are currently working on detainee issues in President Obama’s Justice Department,” Harison said. (Full statement below)

Details about the DOJ lawyers’ involvement in Guantánamo detainee cases are available in the article, which also points out that the Justice Department hired several lawyers who represented Guantánamo detainees during the George W. Bush administration

Holder is a fan of these people in the pocket of CAIR . Look at his past. He is on the side of these terrorists. White is black

Holder’s former firm, Covington & Burling represented 14 Gitmo detainees. Still looking to see which ones:
“Guantanamo Bay Detainees
We currently represent fourteen men detained at the United States Naval Station at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. Most of the men have been detained for approximately eight years and none have been charged with any crimes. Following the decision by the Supreme Court in Boumediene v. Bush, 128 S. Ct. 2229 (2008), holding that the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus extends to detainees held at Guantánamo Bay, we are challenging the legality of our clients’ detentions in habeas proceedings in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Of the seven cases that have gone to merits hearings thus far, Covington has won four, lost two, and is awaiting a decision in one other. Two prior clients were released without a hearing.
The firm has been involved in the Guantánamo related litigation for the last six years. In addition to the on-going habeas corpus proceedings, our efforts have included: bringing cases for review of enemy combatant classification decisions in the D.C. Circuit under the Detainee Treatment Act of 2005; challenging the destruction of CIA torture tapes in federal court; filing amicus briefs and coordinating the amicus effort in Hamdan v. Rumsfeld, 548 U.S. 557 (2006); filing amicus briefs in support of Supreme Court review in Moussaoui v. United States, 382 F.3d 483 (4th Cir.), cert denied, 544 U.S. 931 (2005); challenging the government’s practice of redacting information from documents given to security-cleared habeas counsel; and challenging the abusive medical and living conditions that the detainees experience at Guantánamo.”
http://www.cov.com/probonooverview/probono.aspx?show=morehighlights
I believe the CCR represented him. The CCR has strong ties to Covington & Burling:
“And then there is the Center for Constitutional Rights, a Marxist organization that for years has coordinated legal representation for terrorists detained at Guantanamo Bay. The CCR has been attempting to convince Germany, France, Spain, and other countries to file war-crime indictments against former Bush administration officials, including President Bush, Vice President Cheney, and Secretary Rumsfeld. In representing America’s enemies, CCR has collaborated with many private lawyers, who also volunteered their services — several of whom are now working in the Obama Justice Department. Indeed, Holder’s former firm boasts that it still represents 16 Gitmo detainees (the number was previously higher). And, for help shaping detainee policy, Holder recently hired Jennifer Daskal for DOJ’s National Security Division — a lawyer from Human Rights Watch with no prior prosecutorial experience, whose main qualification seems to be the startling advocacy she has done for enemy combatants

Jennifer Daskal
Jennifer Daskal is an American lawyer who serves as senior counsel for Human Rights Watch, and focuses on issues of terrorism, criminal law and immigration.[1][2] She is also currently a political hire at the Department of Justice, which is seeking to prosecute terror suspects through the criminal justice system instead of through military tribunals.[3][4]
A graduate of Harvard Law School, Cambridge and Brown University and a Marshall Scholar,[5] Daskal garnered attention after traveling to the countries to which Guantanamo captives have been released, to verify that those countries are abiding by the undertakings they made to the US Government to respect the returned captives’ human rights.[6]
On February 23, 2010, the New York Post reported that Daskal, Neal Katyal, and three other lawyers who had worked on behalf of the civil rights of Guantanamo captives, had been serving on the Obama administration’s task force reviewing the status of the remaining Guantanamo captives.[7] The paper had first questioned her appointment to the Department of Justice’s National Security Division, in July 2009, and then again in January 2010
