Now who is surprised about this? No one.
The Obots are all too busy fawning and getting tingly over some comment he made on social media for Humans of NY or something...
Color me Shocked!!!
How could this possibly happen?
Yet another example of supporting decisions that were made out of fear in the wake of 9/11. We must keep these detainees locked up for life as they might be terrorists, we have no proof but that doesn't matter we are scared.
There have been hundreds released and many have returned to battle, why is that surprising. Detained for 10 years with no charges could make an innocent man into an insurgent.
Falsely detained for several years and leading the fight, pretty rare and commendable.
"Accounts of former Guantánamo detainees who went on to fight alongside the Taliban or Islamic State have become familiar. So are those of innocents swept up in the American dragnet and dumped in the prison camp without recourse or appeal. But this is a new one: the story of a man wrongly branded an enemy combatant and imprisoned in Guantánamo for nearly four years, only to emerge as a steadfast American ally on the battlefield."
They were not falsely imprisoned. They were enemy combatants caught on the battlefield. You really need to brush up on military law.
