Several Guantanamo Bay detainees to be released in Washington, D.C., suburbs, say sources
NY Daily News ^ | May 8, 2009 | JAMES GORDON MEEK

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.

A half-dozen ethnic Chinese detainees known as Uyghurs

In addition to the many other reasons to highlight the inanity of this action is the fact that it is a race-based test drive of the release policy.

Start out by dumping a few Chinese muslims on the streets. Gauge the reaction from the media and the people, see how they Chinese muslims mingle.

Can't jump right into this stupidity with a bunch of Yemenis or Pakis.

Or maybe both, ending a grueling commute for thousands. Driving across the 14th St. Bridge and then maneuvering into the right-hand lane for the Third Street tunnel exit is terrorizing in and of itself.

  "If I didn't know any better, I would think that the Obama Administration is setting about purposely to undermine our economic system, criminalize policy differences, eviscerate our military and intelligence services, and assist the aims of our overseas enemies."

What on Earth would give you that idea?  /end sarc/

A few years ago I would have expected an article like this to be in the Onion. Today, sadly enough, it’s reality. I wonder how many idiots who voted for the muslim-in-chief are now having buyer’s remorse. I wonder how many Americans are going to die because of this sheer stupidity.

This will upset the illegals crossing our borders by foot to no end.

After all, illegal immigrants who are prisoners shouldn't get special treatment, should they?

Next will be "Press 3 for Chinese"....

The empty suit wants to keep them close so that when he adds them to his team he’ll know where they are.

Now, now. These are just peaceful folks practicing their faith openly because they adore the wonderful freedoms they have in America to spread their religion's world-renowned love and tolerance for all mankind. Like the bumper sticker says: "COEXIST"!

Dunno. I guess I’m just one of those conspiracy-crazed “bitter clingers” with a Bible in one hand and a gun in the other. Not true, actually. I’d hate to get gun oil on my Bible, so I always put down the Good Book first.

I think a few Muslim zealots roaming the DC area is a good thing. Maybe they can hook-up with Marion B. and partay.
