You are probably very close to the mark.
I guess the post-release complimentary watch was not as good a deal as the terrorist thought it was.

Don't get upset, if we hadn't released him we wouldn't have been able to kill him, would we...:-)

"a former inmate at the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba..."

This why we should not have let the prisoners at Gitmo go home. It is also why there is a resurgence in the Taliban. So next time your Democratic acquaintances tell you that Bush let the Taliban retake Afghanistan, tell them that the liberals who demanded the Gitmo prisoners be released are responsible for the resurgence of the Taliban.

Thanks to the liberal judges that are outraged at President Bush's action in isolating Muslim terrorists at Guantanamo, American troops are at risk -- and I am outraged, too, by America's helplessness before our judicial tyrants.
