Biden admin secretly releases 11 al Qaeda-linked prisoners including two former bodyguards for Osama bin Laden from Guantanamo Bay
Daily Mail UK ^ | January 7, 2025 | Brittany Chain

The Biden administration has quietly shipped 11 prisoners linked to al Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden to Oman from Guantanamo Bay.

The Yemeni men had been held at the infamous facility at the southeastern end of Cuba for more than two decades without charge.

Two of the men were once bodyguards for Osama Bin Laden, and all of the men were captured in the wake of the September 11, 2001 terror attacks.

'The United States appreciates the willingness of the government of Oman and other partners to support ongoing U.S. efforts focused on responsibly reducing the detainee population and ultimately closing the Guantanamo Bay facility,' the Defense Department said in a statement.

'Although different processes, each of the Yemeni detainees underwent a thorough, interagency review by career professionals who unanimously determined all detainees as transfer eligible consistent with the national security interests of the United States.'

The move was the latest salvo - and potentially the last - in a concerted effort from the Biden administration to clear Guantanamo Bay of such prisoners.

The transfer took place early on Monday morning as part of a covert operation to get the men to Oman, where they will be resettled, safely and without fuss.

It is unclear what the United States has agreed to, or provided Oman, in exchange for taking the prisoners.

Biden is a turnip who doesn’t care anymore. Before he loses all his power in government, speech, or bladder control, he’s going to do as much damage as possible.

Yes, the pandering to Islamofascists is an Obama era tradition that Biden has kept going.

Personally, I'm beginning the think that Antony Blinken is the person who's been acting as the shadow President during the Biden administration.

If Biden was an enemy agent, how would he behave differently?

Kamala is still being PAID to protect and defend the Constitution. So far she’s rendered service worthy of her office ONE day during her term, just yesterday.

Two more weeks.

Lord, have mercy and protect our Nation and new Administration.

The U.S. is unique in that it coddles its persecutors.

I remember the Clinton staff taking the “B’s” from all the typewriters when Bush took the WH. Liberals are bratty children

Biden continues to do the opposite of what’s right for 13 more days ending his 50+ years as one of the worse politicians and president ever.

The best way to release muzzies is to give them $100 and a helicopter ride to about 5 miles off the coast of Syria.

I forgot to mention that the $100 will be in pennies split into two bags. The bags are cuffed one to each leg and then the koranimal is pushed out of the ‘copter at about 100’. Bets are then placed to see how far the dude can swim.
