Two prisoners released from Guantanamo Bay have appeared in a video posted on a jihadist website. The AFP reports that "one of the two former inmates, a Saudi man identified as Abu Sufyan al-Azdi al-Shahri, or prisoner number 372, has been elevated to the senior ranks of Al-Qaeda in Yemen." Further, "three other men appear in the video, including Abu al-Hareth Muhammad al-Oufi, identified as an Al-Qaeda field commander," a man who was formerly known as prisoner No. 333. "By Allah, imprisonment only increased our persistence in our principles for which we went out, did jihad for, and were imprisoned for," al-Shihri was quoted as saying.
Obama has signed an executive order that Gitmo should be closed within one year. Obama needs to explain immediately what he intends to do with the prisoners. If he intends to free them, or to give them such rights to the point that keeping them imprisoned would be impossible, then he will have blood on his hands. He will be allowing jihadists to return to their holy war. If this is not what he intends to do, then he needs to explain clearly to the American people exactly what policy he plans on implementing.
The insane left bashed Bush so much and so long that their minds are mush. This inability to think will end closing Gitmo, transfer insurgents to US soil, and will end up releasing them because of insufficient evidence. Most of them will go right back with being terrorists
I guess Obama now has an insurmountable problem. He’s going to have to preach Hope and Change to his terrorist muslim brethren, such that they do not return to their lives of crime. If they do, he is going to have to answer for it.
Now *that* would make a good subject for impeachment in a few years time.

Hope the detainees find a home in the basement of the WH.
Solution to the Gitmo closing, an “Alcatraz” Grand Reopening,and hire only relatives of the victims as guards. :o)
Actually, with a new wave of liberal judges and nationalized health care...we may get both. So ending terrorism by closing Gitmo is fairly consistent logic if you've had a lobamaotomy like most liberals.
Only bright side to this is if the Gitmo detainees were to be put in the general population of any given state or federal prison they may actually get the justice they deserve. No more nice food and holy books delivered in white gloves. It would be roommate time with Julio, who hasn't been with a woman in ten years and had a cousin who was a janitor at the World Trade Center.
“Hope the detainees find a home in the basement of the WH.”
More likely the Lincoln Bedroom.
All kidding aside, hopefully all these AQ war criminals will be GPS tagged (with out their knowing), and soon to be getting a visit from Mr. Predator and Mr. Hellfire.
Under those circumstances, I could agree to closing Gitmo.
With just the power of the presidential pen he can (and seems hellbent bend on doing) more harm & devastation than many many nukes.
From killing babies, to wrecking the economy, to his ultra-leftist social engineering, to his repeal of the 'dont ask dont tell' policies in the military, to raising taxes, etc Obama is going to be very destructive to America.
However, there is a GOD who watches after the affairs of men and even Obama's power is noting compared to HIM.
Thank you Obama. What kind of deal did you make to become President?
