Two of the four leaders allegedly behind the al Qaeda plot to blow up a Northwest Airlines passenger jet over Detroit were released by the U.S. from the Guantanamo prison in November, 2007, according to American officials and Department of Defense documents.

American officials agreed to send the two terrorists to Saudi Arabia where they entered into an "art therapy rehabilitation program" and were set free, according to U.S. and Saudi officials.

Opossum was right. It was Bush's fault!

The left’s response to this report is verrrry easy: US persecution at Gitmo induced resentment, and in the PantyBoomer was simply manifesting that.

I wonder what pictures they drew in “art therapy rehabilitation” that made them decide to spring them. Hint hint. This thread would be enhanced with a few Freepictures.

Freed, unfortunately, by George W. Bush. That one can’t be blamed on Obama, although it’s only a matter of time.

Yes but that one was released by the idiot George W. Bush. You can rest assured that the 80 that Obozo releases will be thoroughly vetted and none will ever do anything like that.

Just a lone Extremist claims the Bama Boy.

The best way to deal with terrorists is to take no prisoners.

To me the more important part of the story is that the Royal family of Saudi Arabia has once again demonstrated that they are our enemies.

And ABC knows this how? I'll tell you how. Obama leaked it. Is the connection they make true? ABC has no idea. Maybe, maybe not but the meme is quite familiar, it's Bush's fault.

Except of course in this case it isn't.

The Obama administration is incompetent. The father tells them his son is a jihadist nut and they fail to put him on the no fly list.

Of course President Bush is not blameless, he did indeed succumb to pressure from the left and release jihadists from GITMO. For that he deserves criticism.

This particular terrorist should be at GITMO right now being questioned day and night. Instead he's been Mirandized and lawyered up.

so, the bad news is- these insane sociopaths were released to SAUDI ARABIA on Bush’s watch

the good news is - it sure has to make folks ask why obama is going balls to the wall on releasing dozens of the worst of the worse and directly back to Yemen! Maybe they have a better program than “art therapy”?

AND, this “lone Extremist” was taken to the best hospital in the area and now may need skin grafts. Take the b@stard to Gitmo!

Janet said it’s not a larger plot. They know who trained him, yet they didn’t make the connection?
