Several Guantanamo Bay detainees to be released in Washington, D.C., suburbs, say sources

WASHINGTON - A large federal security operation is in place to keep tabs on several Guantanamo Bay inmates who may soon be released in Virginia, the Daily News has learned.

A half-dozen ethnic Chinese detainees known as Uyghurs will be flown by marshals from the U.S. naval base in Cuba to live in the Washington suburbs if lingering legal, logistical and political problems are ironed out, government officials said Thursday.

Some lawmakers and counter-terror officials worry about terrorists living next door. Northern Virginia was chosen because it has an Uyghur Muslim community that could help the ex-prisoners adjust.

I thought we had already passed a law, years ago, stating enemy combatants could NOT be released into the United States!???

Our public servants now classify these guys as "detainees," but not as enemy combatants. Even though they were picked up at an al-qaeda training camp.

The latest lame excuse I read is that there is no evidence that they want to commit terrorism against the U.S. ... their target is China.

That sounds like the definition of a terrorist to me. China agrees with me. It considers them terrorists and wants them back to put them on trial.

Indeed. Perhaps the key to their undoing is to pit Democrat versus Democrat?

Great. Now my home district (Wolf is my rep.) will be swarming with terrorists, just as I return home from Charlottesville.

Go $#%)@#$@ yourself, 0bama.

“It’s really sad. I mean, where are terrorists to go? They don’t have a home. Their nations of origin don’t want them. They have no family here. We need to be the ones to comfort them while they are out of work.” Barack Obama

No, it’s not really a quote, but what else can this imbecile be thinking?

He's not an imbecile. He is, however, a sock puppet for anti-American interests.

If anything, I fully intend to remind all my Democrat-voting neighbors in the Tenth District about our new terrorist "guests" at any chance I get.

Releasing some Gitmo Uyghur detainees into Virginia is:

Correcting an injustice 12%

A huge security risk 88%

Ok, if these folks WEREN’T a real threat then WHY the huge ‘National Security Operation” to keep tabs on them?

So, what kind of qualifications are their “tails” going to have? I hope they’re CIA or something. They seem to be the only gov’t agency with enough backbone to stand up to this current President.

Maybe the Mossad or something would be willing to um, “track” these Muslim TERRORISTS, too — just as a favor to us Americans that will always support Israel? Please?

I wonder if Obama even thought to ask the Uyghur Muslim COMMUNITY in VA ITSELF if they WANTED known terrorists coming into their neighborhood??? It would be interesting to hear their comments, wouldn’t it?

I suppose CAIR won’t be talking about this will they?

It’s customary to use /sarc or /s to indicate sarcasm.

My forte is beyond what you imagine.
