Kerry on Gitmo Detainee Who Returned to Terrorism: ‘He’s Not Supposed to Be Doing That’
BY: Aaron Kliegman February 24, 2016 5:45 pm
Secretary of State John Kerry lamented Wednesday that a terrorist who the Obama administration released from the military prison at Guantanamo Bay subsequently returned to fight for al Qaeda, telling lawmakers “he’s not supposed to be doing that.â€
Appearing before the State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs Subcommittee of the Senate Appropriations Committee, Kerry made the statement while testifying about the State Department’s budget request for the fiscal year 2017.
During the hearing, Sen. Mark Kirk (R., Ill.) asked Kerry for his thoughts on Ibrahim al Qosi, the former Guantanamo detainee who is now a prominent al Qaeda leader, and had staffers hold up a picture of the terrorist for Kerry to see.
“Let me just ask one question,†Kirk said to Kerry. “I want to show you a picture of Ibrahim al Qosi, who was recently released by the administration to the Sudanese, and he appeared on some al Qaeda videos recruiting people for AQAP [al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula].â€
Kirk went on to say, “Now that he’s out, I would hope we would end the policy of issuing terrorists to terrorist nations, and where they can get out.â€

Then consider he convinced enough people to elect him to public office multiple times. What does that say about the voters in MA?
If I were to go there could I collect payment or do I need a criminal record first?
My Father was born and raised in MA and he was always a dyed in the wool Conservative.
Simply “Self-Identify” as a criminal and then ask for your check.
Reckon I could go there when things get tight and rent an apt and register?
If Bruce Jenner can be woman of the year, then you can be a self-identified Crime Lord and ask for a check to refrain from criminal activity. ;-)
One can only hope his next act of terror touches Kerry’s family personally. Not a nice thing to say, but if these idiots are going to endanger people, they should have to pay a price as well.
Bet there have been a lot more than one went back to murder.
Kerry,that idiot ran for prez....shaking head in disgust
Hope in Nov to not hear from these Marxists again..
LOL!!!
Need to get in front of a mirror and practice my tough guy face!!

Thanks for the laugh...........I NEED THAT!!!!!!!!!! (cfeo)
Least we forget King Obama, the communists black Muslim terrorists.
IIRC, Kerry on the Iran deal was negotiating with his daughter’s father-in-law!
Spoken like a traitor.
Lurch is a lame assed imbecile..
Out-stupiding Slow Joe again .... Kerry-Heinz on a roll!
You can bet your azz that this poor camel humper got himself microaggressed by us somewhere along the line.
So it’s true. John Kerry used a drill with a metal bit to clear out his ears as a kid
That is how far we've fallen.
Kerry, you vainglorious buffoon.
Kerry IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE SECY OF STATE, SENATOR, OR LOOSE, BUT HE IS.
Shit happens, and Obama and his Marxist followers make sure of that from GITMO to education and everything in-between.
