Taliban commander freed for Bergdahl tells relative he’ll wage jihad against Americans again

Jun 6, 2014 1:30 pm By Robert Spencer

mullah-norullah-nooriThis is no surprise, of course. What else would he and the others do? What was done at Guantanamo to disabuse them of their jihadist sentiments and supposed misunderstanding of Islam? Absolutely nothing. Even though these men are universally believed to hold to a twisted, hijacked version of Islam, no effort was made to change their minds.

“Freed Taliban Commander Tells Relative He’ll Fight Americans Again,” by Mushtaq Yusufzai, NBC News, June 6, 2014:

PESHAWAR, Pakistan – One of the five Taliban leaders freed from Guantanamo Bay in return for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl’s release has pledged to return to fight Americans in Afghanistan, according to a fellow militant and a relative.

“After arriving in Qatar, Noorullah Noori kept insisting he would go to Afghanistan and fight American forces there,” a Taliban commander told NBC News via telephone from Afghanistan.

Noori pushed to return to Afghanistan after learning that the U.S. had provided written assurances that no country would arrest any of the five freed for a year as long as they lived peacefully, one of his relatives told NBC News by telephone from Afghanistan.

Under the terms of the deal, the former commanders would remain under the control of the government of Qatar for one year and be subject to “restrictions on their movement and activities,” a senior U.S. official has told NBC News –- including a one-year travel ban. A diplomatic source later told NBC News that their movements within the Arab emirate are not restricted.

Noorullah Noori has threatened to return to Afghanistan to fight foreign forces.

The news comes amid a fierce debate on Capitol Hill over whether the Obama administration should have traded Bergdahl for the five commanders held at Guantanamo. Former members of Bergdahl’s platoon have described him as a deserter who walked away from his outpost.

Among the Taliban, the commanders’ release was treated as a victory.

“We thought we may not see them again as once you land in the hands of Americans, it’s difficult to come out alive,” Noori’s relative said. “But it was a miracle that Allah Almighty gave us Bergdahl and we got back our heroes.”

All of the five — Mohammad Fazl, Mohammed Nabi, Khairullah Khairkhwa, Abdul Haq Wasiq and Noori – were suffering from bad health after their imprisonment and currently being treated in a hospital in Qatar, the relative added….

    “But it was a miracle that Allah Almighty gave us Bergdahl and we got back our heroes.”

    It was a punishment that God gave us Obama as a leader. But hey, we’ve elected him…twice!
    We deserve it, don’t we?

      I didn’t know obozo would indeed turn out to be such a sinister mockery of our values, our culture, and our freedom of speech about analyzing and evaluating islam — let alone taking a stand in our foreign and domestic policies against these murdering savages. Obama, STOP THOSE VISAS, YOU TRAITOR!!!

    The title of this above article tells a lot. It exposes the extreme folly and follishness of Obama in that “swap deal.” This Islamic terrorist as well as the other four jihadist chiefs who were released with him were all deemed a “high risk” to America’s security by the US State Department. Obama has thus shown his great incompetence as the President of the United States. Obama should be impeached.

    • bettina says

      Impeachment for obozo is too mild a punishment — he should be tried for treason in aligning with muslim terrorists the world over and here at home.
      Remember the workplace offender Nidal Hasan? And now feeding Taliban terrorists back to their ilk, which overshadows the cover-up of hasan’s jihad against us?

      If Obama consistently–invariably, insistently–fails to resist evil, then he is complicit in it.

    It’s times like these that I find myself rooting to the “shadow government” John Kennedy complained about.

    Hopefully these guys have area 51 type nano spy bugs shoved very far up their asses.

    Well he said he wanted back into the fight . Then Drone him now. Find the other 4 and drone them as well. Kill the vermin!! Kill them before they kill one of our GI’s, again.

      Absolutely Thomas! He says he wants to return to Afghanistan and kill Americans? I say have at it! And may our brave soldiers keep their eyes peeled for this scum and terminate him – with extreme prejudice. And any others that wish to continue the jihad. No getting taken prisoner again to live at the U.S. taxpayer’s expense.

    …………………………..

    And why should anyone be surprised by this?

    It is also disturbing that Bergdahl himself is probably very glad to hear this…

    its high time to reinstate Death penalty for deadly prisoners with blood in their hands… so that the terrorists won’t kipnap soldiers to demand prisoners exchange…..
    with Shalit case as the Pandora box opens… now America bring the saga to their own soil by allowing this stupidity to unfold.. as America very own bloody prisoners walk out of prisons and sworn jihad against the very ones that freed them.
    America, you are causing your very own sons in danger as they serve in army in Middle East countries, in fear of any moment becoming hostages for prisoners exchange .
    so, jailing bloody prisoners is NOT the End of the Story now.

      Wishful thinking
      Regardless there are plenty more scraggly bearded Islamists like him at your local ( ‘storefront’ mosque ) ready to practice true Islam if given a chance.

    All 5 would probably like to return to Afghanistan, after all it is home and is a target rich country. But they do not need to return home to ‘arrange’ a terrorist attack against American, or Israeli interests anywhere. These guys are wired to a network, that can work in cooperation and concert with each other. None of them are going to take up gardening or finger painting as hobby’s. Their hobby is jihad, and they are committed to it. Rasool Obama has enabled, ‘death to America’, by jihad. Only another jihadist would be interested in doing that.

    Of course that Taliban chief hasn’t changed his wicked ways of his murderous violence ways of militant jihadism. No matter how much time he had spent in Gitmo nor any amount of good value teachings will cause him to change his deadly jihadist ways. As the ancient Greek poet, Aristophanes, wrote “The wisest of the wise will never make a crab walk straight.” To explain this another way, the Bible in Ecclesiates 1:15 teaches “That which is crooked cannot be made straight…” [KJV]

    Watch this guy. He’s probably one of the ones the CIA has turned.

      Kepha, if by that you mean he is now a staunch ally of ours working for truth, justice, and the American way, I have to say I’m rather skeptical…
