Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Obama releases four more jihadis from Guantanamo, returns them to Afghanistan

Dec 20, 2014 6:08 pm By Robert Spencer

gitmo1“The Obama administration has released the four on the basis that charges cannot be brought against them and that it is possible to reintegrate the individuals back into society following the detention.” What will they do? Buy farms? Open restaurants? Isn’t it more likely that they will return to the trade they know — jihad?

“Four More Detainees Release from Gitmo,” by Adam Kredo, Washington Free Beacon, December 20, 2014:

Four more detainees held at the Guantanamo Bay detention facility were released from the prison and sent to Afghanistan, according to an announcement made by the Pentagon on Saturday.

The four detainees—Shawali Khan, Khi Ali Gul, Abdul Ghani, and Mohammed Zahir—have been repatriated in Afghanistan, according to the Pentagon, which announced the the transfer is part of a larger bid by President Barack Obama to fully shut down the prison facility at Gitmo.

“This repatriation reflects the Defense Department’s continued commitment to closing the detention facility at Guantanamo in a responsible manner,” Paul Lewis, the defense department’s special envoy for the closure of Guantanamo, said in a statement provided to the Free Beacon.

Just 132 detainees now remain imprisoned in Gitmo, which has seen a high of around 775 prisoners.

Each of those four released from Gitmo has been imprisoned for at least 10 years.

The Obama administration has relased [sic] the four on the basis that charges cannot be brought against them and that it is possible to reintegrate the individuals back into society following the detention….

    Execute them all. or if they are returned to Afghanistan, throw them out of a plane minus a parachute. All of these savages will join ISIS or some other barbarian Muslim group and try and kill us

    Guantanamo Bay was a disgrace….an attempt to get round the Constitution and Law of the USA. It was totally counter-productive.

    All the dangerous Islamic lunatics should have been dealt with within the USA and by the laws of the USA.

    There is no excuse for having laws and then ignoring them.

      Where in the US? Is there anyplace where they wouldn’t be liable to an attempted rescue, or where they wouldn’t endanger the local population in case they managed to break away?

      I fully agree with you. We’ve got to face these things head on. This “not in my backyard” attitude is just cowardice cloaked in “security.”

      Bull. The Constitution should not apply to these non-uniformed (and thus illegal) combatants. The reason Guantanamo Bay was used was because idiot leftards believe that the Constitution should apply to everyone in the world, even admitted terrorists. Nope.

      What I would advise in the future is for US forces to no longer accept surrenders. From now on, your judgment comes immediately with a bullet. Battlefield justice at its finest.

    Obama needs to be on trial for treason.

    I would support his execution.

        Most Western politicians have been very negligent about Islam…perhaps criminally negligent. They have not researched the topic and have lazily taken the word of lying Gulf state diplomats who drew a happy face on jihad.

        We should not overstate the case, however I agree the naivety of Obama and other Western politicians has cost many lives. This will become increasingly clear as people learn more about Islam. We are living through one of the greatest DISINFORMATION CAMPAIGNS in history.

          “We should not overstate the case, however I agree the naivety of Obama and other Western politicians has cost many lives.”

          The cost is too high, mortimer. Thousands of innocents have died and thousands are still dying because of this “naivety.” How many more have to die before we start “overstating” the case?
          Heads of states are not supposed to be naive. If they are, they should be removed from power as soon as possible.

    Why doesn’t Obama use taxpayer money to buy them all taxi cabs and put them to work in the USA? What does it matter at this point of insanity?

    “The Obama administration has released the four on the basis that charges cannot be brought against them
    And it has taken how may years to establish this not to mention millions of tax payer money?

    ‘In a responsible manner’…That’s the key ainit? Just exactly what is that?

    Obama, like all the political elite across the Western world, except the Poles and the Czechs, is a traitor! May he go down in history as one of the qulslings and be reviled by all people who care about Judeo-Christian values.
