Former Gitmo Detainee Released by Obama Now Al Qaeda Leader in Yemen
RedState ^ | 12/9/2015 | Caleb Howe

Ibrahim Qosi, also known as Sheikh Khubayb al Sudani, formerly of a cell in Guantanamo Bay, is now a leader with Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) operating in Yemen.

Qosi was in a video released by AQAP this week. Qosi joined AQAP in 2014 and became one of its leaders. Qosi and other AQAP commanders discussed their time waging jihad at length in the video, entitled "Guardians of Sharia."

Islamic scholars ensure the "correctness" of the "jihadist project," according to Qosi. And the war against America continues through "individual jihad," which al Qaeda encourages from abroad. Here, Qosi referred to al Qaeda's policy of encouraging attacks by individual adherents and smaller terror cells. Indeed, AQAP's video celebrates jihadists who have acted in accordance with this call, such as the Kouachi brothers, who struck Charlie Hebdo's offices in Paris earlier this year. The Kouachi brothers' operation was sponsored by AQAP.

Qosi had been incarcerated at Gitmo for eight years when, in 2010, he cut a deal with the Obama Justice Department that led to his 2012 release.

Another outrage that was predicted by so many. This administration is so detached from reality that I can only conclude that it’s deliberate.

I don’t wish any terrorist attack on anyone and may God protect the innocent, but I swear that nothing will better sum up this Presidency than when this demon or the next he releases makes international headlines.

I think it’s a mixture of ineptitude, petulance, and looney liberalism. I don’t think this embarrassment is smart enough to knowingly commit treason. Being a traitor requires intent..

Well . . . he's right. Because all of those who slander the "so-called" prophet will be killed by Islamists.
