Qatar broke promise with US, allowed Gitmo detainee to leave the country
jihad watch ^ | 12/14/14 | Robert Spencer

Relying on allies that aren’t allies is yet another consequence of the Washington establishment’s determined refusal to face the realities of the jihad, and to formulate policy based on those realities.

“Qatar ‘broke promise to US over Guantanamo detainee,'” by David Blair, the Telegraph, December 12, 2014 (thanks to Lookmann):

Qatar broke an “explicit” promise by allowing a former Guantánamo detainee who had trained with al-Qaeda to leave the country and visit Britain, a new report has found.

Jarallah al-Marri, who attended an al-Qaeda training camp in Afghanistan before the terrorist attacks on September 11, was freed from Guantánamo in 2008.

Mr Marri was allowed to go home to Qatar in return for a formal promise from the government of the Gulf state that he would not be allowed to leave the country. But a report from the Foundation for the Defence of Democracies in Washington said this pledge was broken.

Did Qatar keep its deal with Hussein, though?

He wanted to visit a more thoroughly Islamicized country.

Obama lies to us. Qatar lies to him. Lies are no longer punished in Obamaland. Nothing of consequence will happen to Qatar. Truth doesn’t matter to the Obama Regime.

It’s a totally stupid agreement anyway unless they were going to imprison the guy. And what have we heard lately about the five released for Bergdahl?

Totally stupid, or just a ruse to get something done that shouldn’t be done, and then let people forget about it.

we don’t know that they lied. Obama really doesn’t give a damn one way or another; I doubt he ever extracted the promise

He’s a raghead. In Qatar, they’re ragheads. One of the most “moral” things a raghead can do is lie to a Christian (infidel), next to beheading him, of course.

Keep in mind that John Effin’ Kerry is the mental giant who made that deal with Qatar. John’s IQ is approximately 25 points lower than that of a thumb tack./S
