CAIRO - In his first public speech addressing tens of thousands of mostly Islamist supporters, Egypt's president-elect Mohammed Morsi has vowed to free the blind sheik jailed in the U.S. for a plot to blow up New York City landmarks.

Morsi, Egypt's first Islamist and civilian president-elect, promised Friday to work to free Omar Abdel-Rahman, the spiritual leader of men convicted in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.

He also promised to free detained Egyptian protesters facing military tribunals.

The blind Sheikh Omar Abdul-Rahman is the poster child for why the US criminal justice system does not work in dealing with foreign terrorist groups waging war on American soil. While imprisoned in the US, the Sheikh has at our expense been able to operate rather efficiently in directing his followers abroad... and if we think this stopped with the arrest of his messenger Lynne Stewart, we are mistaken- apparently he is still allowed to call his wife from time to time and can communicate through her. And now we have Obama's little Cairo speech Muslim Brotherhood buddies demonstrating this all too well in Egypt.

Not only will Obama free him, but he’ll probably throw in Major Nidal Hasan and also agree to build a shrine in the US to the 19 hijackers.

Not only will Obama free him, but he’ll probably throw in Major Nidal Hasan and also agree to build a shrine in the US to the 19 hijackers.

It’s worse than political correctness, I suspect.

obama, and the minions assisting him, use the thug tactics that got him elected in Chicago.

If those being blackmailed, threatened, etc. would realize the survival of our country is at stake, their personal embarrassing foibles pale in comparison to the downfall of the USA. They need to band together in “solidarity” of sort, and expose this terrorizing regime in the White House.

His brother, Obama, will find a way - after the election.

All he has to do is ask Obama. I am sure Obama would be happy to hand him the blind sheik.
