Terrorists released from Gitmo have already been found engaged in new terrorist activities:
Democratic Sen. Joseph Biden (Delaware) has been a leader of what should be loosely called the “Release Suspected Terrorists Now!” caucus. Biden says everyone should be let go from Gitmo — except, in a crucial caveat, “Those we have reason to keep, keep.” Ah, there’s the rub.
We captured more than 10,000 people in Afghanistan. Roughly 750 ended up at Gitmo — exactly because we had reason to keep them. The number now is down to 500, as cases are constantly reviewed. Unfortunately, the release process isn’t perfect. Two former detainees were killed in fighting in Afghanistan last year, and another was picked up in a raid on a terrorist training camp. A former detainee in Pakistan was suspected of involvement in the deadly kidnapping of two Chinese engineers.
Yet the Left wants Gitmo shut down. The Left cares neither about Gitmo, nor the terrorists, nor the Americans killed by terrorists released from Gitmo, nor the danger of America being attacked with WMDs. All the Left cares about is mechanically attacking GWB. They’re like robots. It’s like they’re programmed.
