insanity
I’m waiting for one to join the Obama administration.
translation:leftist moonbats have threatened to self-flaggulate themselves on the White House steps and Sugurdaddy Soros cut off $ if Barry doesn't close GITMO
These people were released under Bush and Obama, and McCain thought it was a swell idea.
I thought it was ludicrous to release any of them until hostilities were declared over.
Ah who cares. These three obviously didn’t.
If those guys down at Gitmo rot in place, I wouldn’t release them until one day after I thought they were no longer a risk to this nation. And as long as terrorist groups are still carrying out terrorism, they’re a threat.
Hey, it’s a job. These days you can’t be to picky.
"If you hold people for years upon years, ah, with no hope of any outcome favorable to them, I think you tend to, to put in their own minds this idea of becoming a radical - even if they weren't radicals to begin with, they are now".
This is ridiculous on many dimensions. The detainees are represented by counsel and their counselor will give them information on the process and where they stand. Numerous detainees have been processed and released, so why would a non-combatant have "no hope of any outcome favorable to them" when their comrades have been released?
Additionally, his statement lends credence to the argument that radical muslims radicalize others who were not a terrorist threat before. If so, why do we want them in our prison system?
If we follow the rationale that Guantanamo creates and fosters terrorism, why wouldn’t the federal pen in Thomson,Illinois, foster terrorism, too? Continuing in that vein, why the hell would we bring them here, when Cuba is a tough nut to crack for any terrorist?
Its 5 of 5 rejoining the militants.
SHEESH!
considering that the feds have released all the ones they thought were “safe” to release (what a foolish idea), it’s a good bet that virtually ALL of the remaining jihad-scum at Gitmo will be right back to their terrorist ways if given the chance.......
FDR’s precedent with the 8 German saboteurs landed by submarine on Long Island should have been good enough for this current war -— execute all of the SOBs ....(well in the WWII case we did let two off who turned on the others in that instance, but can’t do that with jihad-scum).
Too bad we cazn’t tell which one out of the five will return to fight again.
Let’s just keep them all locked up, just in case.
The other four out of the five will understand why they have to be locked up indefinitely, if we just explain it to them.
