“He was transferred to Sudan in 2012 as part of a deal to rehabilitate former terror detainees…” And look how well it worked. “Deradicalization” programs in general are doomed to failure, because they proceed from the assumption that Islam is a religion of peace and that once the jihadi learns the true, peaceful meaning of the Qur’an, he will lay down his arms and become a productive, loyal member of society. Since that isn’t true, these programs never work.
“Al Qaeda leader, former Gitmo detainee threatens attack on U.S. cities,” by Lisa Daftari, Foreign Desk, November 4, 2016:
A senior Al Qaeda leader and former Guantanamo detainee in Yemen has called for renewed attacks on the U.S. just days before Americans prepare to vote for a new president.
“We pledge and vow to continue fighting America. Hitting, confronting and striking until it falls back behind the seas. None is upon us except by the will of Allah,” Ibrahim Al Qosi, a convicted Al Qaeda paymaster said in a speech entitled “15 years since the takeoff of the modern crusade.”
The Foreign Desk has obtained a transcript of Al Qosi’s speech.
Al Qosi advises followers to “concentrate your military expedition towards the crusaders and its apostate agents,” calling for renewed attacks against the U.S. while criticizing the Obama administration’s inaction in Syria that has allowed Russia and Iran to take a leading role in the conflict.
Al Qosi, 54, also know as Sheikh Khubayb al Sudani, is a Sudanese citizen who was detained by the U.S. in Afghanistan in 2001 and served a short prison sentence after admitting support for Al Qaeda.
He was transferred to Sudan in 2012 as part of a deal to rehabilitate former terror detainees, but in 2015, he resurfaced in Yemen reportedly as a leader with the Ansar al-Sharia terror group, more commonly known as Al Qaeda of the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP).
U.S. officials Friday alerted federal officials in New York, Texas and Virginia about an unspecified threat by Al Qaeda around Election Day, though a government source deemed the threat “relatively low-level.” Authorities have been told to remain vigilant, according to Reuters.
It is unclear whether Al Qosi’s speech is connected to the latest threat….

Seems to me that “deradicalization programs” are codeword for get-outta-jail-free cards for jihadis. Thanks Obama!
Custos Custodum says
Neither Barry, nor his minions and minionettes, nor indeed the MSM ever thought that “deradicalization” had any chance of being effective.
In fact, Leftist groupies in government and in the media want to keep up the excitement of living through a “revolution” in our own time (of course from the safety of nice all-white gated communities, with children chauffeur-driven to elite private schools).
The phrase “deradicalization” was never more than a convenient smoke screen given out to the hoi polloi to take advantage of regular Americans’ charitable instinct that everyone deserves “a second (or third, fourth, fifth) chance.”
Meanwhile, insiders exchange knowing smirks at the stupidity of people who trusted them.

None of these programs have ever worked, nor can they.
Angemon says
“Rehabilitation”? Not going to happen. Not while the link between islam and terrorism is denied. The Saudis can’t do it. Assad couldn’t do it (and he willingly released dangerous jihadis on to his people, but that’s another story). Non-muslim countries *may* have a modicum of success if they engage them on what makes them tic: religion. But even that would have to be made on an individual basis and there would be no assurance of success, so I wouldn’t rely on it.
Shmooviyet says
ME Christians blast BHO and hope for the election of this man named Trump, while jihadists expect and will cheer for a Clinton win. They well recognize a fellow psychotic US hater.
Charli Main says
All Muslims are cheering for a Clinton win, because that will mean another 2 million Muslims a year heading for the United States of Islamistan.
bostongal912 says
Exactly! That’s why I pray that Trump wins! The way the democrats cheat she’ll probably win and then the country is doomed! I don’t think it will ever recover from a Clinton presidency. I just don’t get why anyone in their right mind would vote for her. But then I don’t get liberals!

I wonder how Robert Spencer manages to explain the ever-the-same things, over and over and over again. There’s a sucker born every minute, especially into the power system, it seems Or rather, they reproduce themselves there automatically, due to the group insanity inside these organisations.
This website appears like a Sisyphus job. Can the desired outcome be achieved without the millions in the streets that we saw at the end of the ’80s in eastern Europe?
Mubarak says
Probably not. Us awaits the great tribulation.
gravenimage says
Given that Mubarak has said that we *deserve* this tribulation–especially in having Muslims rape us–his urging surrender here should not surprise.
But it is even worse than this–he has said that Christianity demands that we let in *more* Muslims, so that they can rape us and we can ‘atone’ for the supposed sins of allowing women to attend public celebrations and work and study alongside men. *Ugh*.
vladkoval says
Michael Laudahn,
guta lapidem cavat – constant dropping wears away a stone, little strokes fell great oaks, spit on a stone, and it will be wet at last, continual dripping wears away a stone, a river cuts through rock.
And never forget: We are much more than it seems to be. There are millions of immigrants in USA, who do not need antimuslim websites, coz antimuslimanism is in their blood due to historical interactions with muslims: Poles, Serbs, Bulgarians, Armenians, Russians, Ukrainians, Georgians, Africans, and many many others. And we will win anyway.
Michael Laudahn says
Have you seen my Guillaume Faye quote a few days ago? Here it is again, ie the conclusion:
‘There are three hypotheses. The first, the worst one, is submission. It takes two to wage war. If, faced with invaders and aggressors, the French and Europeans don’t defend themselves there won’t be a war. It will be a “tepid death” to use the expression of Konrad Lorenz. A rotting, a collapse, with no real combat. It’s a possibility.
The second hypothesis is the eruption of an ethnic civil war with the defeat of the French, and other Europeans, since they have against them their own collaborating State. A possibility that Jean Raspail had evoked.
The third hypothesis, is a victorious civil war, with incalculable historic consequences, including the collapse of all our political paradigms. Whatever happens, it will be impossible, in the coming years, to escape major disorders. Western Europe will soon be the theater of an ethnic earthquake. Inevitable.’

vladkoval says
Only 2 days left. Even if Trump doesn’t win this time (god forbid), it’s not yet defeat. It’s just the beginning of awakening. And what about Europe – again – never underestimate uncompromised antimuslim intransigent nations of Europe. It is not easy to islamize EU as it seems to be.
Michael Laudahn says
You’re right insofar as the spaniards managed to defeat the inavders after 800 years of fighting, and starting from the tiny ‘island’ (topographically spoken) of Asturia way north which they managed to preserve. Still the question needs to be asked: Why do we wait until we’re in a comparable situation before we fight back? It would not be without problems now, but much easier compared to any later point in time.
linnte says
It seems to me the last option is the best but most violent. Bummer.
Charli Main says
I agree, that the first battle that must be fought and won, is the elimination of the political elites that have, not only opened the gates of the citadel to the Muslim enemy but are harbouring and succouring them as well.
Custos Custodum says
Robert Spencer has already achieved one IRREVERSIBLE result – compared to 10 years ago, we now have not only a critical mass but quite a comfortable number of people who are familiar with the basic ideas and terminology of real Islam. Terms like taqiyya are coming into use among a much broader cross-section of the reading population, even outside the context of Islam.
This basic knowledge will spread as painstakingly erected taboos weaken and curious minds continue to seek real answers. Indeed, cultural taboos will always inspire an intrepid minority to peak behind the curtain of the official narrative.
No amount of MSM propaganda, academic indoctrination etc. can put the toothpaste back in the tube.
Custos Custodum says

Michael, I do believe that more people are–glacial though it is–beginning to wake up to the threat of Islam.
Jack Holan says
What irks me even more than the fact of released terrorists resurfacing and threatning us; is wise, arrogant Condesending Obama telling us we can’t hold them I definitely we can’t try them at Guantanamo Bay,they deserve American Rights and Protections. He is so full of it and the Media Congress. And Public barely raise their voice. If it were a GOP Administration doing exactly the same thing the Lefties would use it as an excuse for street demonstration. It’s time we take to the streets. If Hillary is elected and we just sit BAck talking that will be bet expectations like Ryan OConnel
Custos Custodum says
Remember a basic fact: Obama enjoys lying for its own sake.
Of course, Obama is ALWAYS pushing the Muslim narrative to which he and his backers are deeply committed for various reasons.
Many elitists seem to envision and work for a future where they are in TOTAL control at the top of a Muslimized and chaotic society, all democratic restraints having been swept aside.
Of course, sexual and domestic slavery, public torture and executions, as well as death and labor camps for the recalcitrant will be prominent features in the totalitarian promised land. In other words, North Korea++ with Islam rather than NK’s Confucian/ethnic supremacist/Stalinist state ideology.
Custos Custodum says
Obama’s favorite technique is misdirection – loudly telling us that “the notion that we have to choose between A and B is false” – when the real issues are X, Y and Z.
linnte says
What Obama has done by releasing these criminals is typical of his Muslim mindset-theyre all not guilty. The death penalty would have been the answer to show Islam we mean business, but NO! Obama sucks up to Islam.
Two more days till we know the fate of America. I have butterflies in my stomach!
gravenimage says
It’s true; Muslims are regarded as intrinsically “innocent”. More proof that Muslims use words differently from us…
Clinton still appears to lead slightly in polls–but the margin is narrowing every day. We’ll know in a few days, one way or the other.
linnte says
A day and a half. My nerves can’t take much more of this!!! Hahahahahah!
Custos Custodum says
Actually, it is worse than that. If any detainee had been found to be factually innocent, just swept up and shipped to Guantanamo by happenstance, that detainee would NOT have been released because such a detainee would have considerable PR value.
The detainees were released because they were needed as officers for new Islamic State operations. (BTW note how the MSM still can’t get themselves to say “Islamic State” and continue to offer bizarre excuses.)
linnte says
Saudi and Iran controlling Obama is how I see it. His support for the Islamic State is heinous, as is the whole Congress of the USA. How could our Congress allow these men to be released? I refuse to believe all this support for the Rebels in Syria and Islamic Terrorist groups has gone unnoticed by our politicians! That is their job- to know what’s going on!
Eric Jones says
Obama has made it a recurring practice to release Gitmo detainees back into the battlefield so that they can do more harm. Part of the 32 years of treason in the Oval Office.
