TREASON: Obama Just Released Another JIHAD Terrorist From GITMO To Join ISIS

He wants them all released before he leaves office.

Obama just released another terrorist from GITMO.

Let’s see if I get this straight, the 9-11 terrorists were mostly Saudis. Now we send this guy to Saudi Arabia for rehabilitation? Ok. Call me crazy but where is the logic? I just want to be one of the first to thank our commander-in-chief for doing everything possible to make sure all of the very people, who wish harm to Americans, are released before his last days in office are over. This story just makes me wonder if he will soon be on a boat heading back to America in the form of a “helpless refugee”.

For all that is directly credited to Obama, he is one really busy guy!

Good. Anyone not convicted in court of terrorism should be immediately released, Guantanamo should close, all military personnel should be pulled out of Cuba, and the base should be returned to the Cuban people.

Apart from making the world a more dangerous place and making the US weaker, what would your suggestion achieve?

Guy has been detained for 13 years, spanning two administrations, without charges. He is thought to have been a possible body guard for bin Laden.

Bin Laden was one of 40 some children and the black sheep of a wealthy Saudi family.

I would not be surprised if this detainee would have preferred to stay at GITMO where his needs were met and he was safe.

It has cost the US about $5 million per detainee since GITMO was opened in 2002.

Detaining people for 13 years across two administrations without charges makes sense?

Lemme see here...

So by releasing people that you can't convict in court (presumably because no evidence exists of any crime), and closing a base and returning it to its rightful owner, I'd be making the world more dangerous and the U.S. weaker? Really now?

What are we doing in Cuba that can't be done in Florida...a mere 90 miles away?

I am betting most of the costs are fixed costs and releasing one guy will not save much. Close it down.

I'm still trying to figure out why we need a base in Cuba.

Closing Guantanamo *was* one of Obama's original campaign promises.

You might not like it, but it has nothing to do with treason.
