Obama to Release One Third of Gitmo Inmates

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Peace/2012/09/22/Obama-to-Release-One-Third-of-Gitmo-Inmates

President Barack Obama is about to release or transfer 55 Gitmo prisoners, despite reports that the Libyan believed to be behind the killing of US Ambassador Christopher Stevens was a former Guantanamo inmate transferred to Libyan custody.

The large percentage of those scheduled to be released are Yemeni, according to a list made public by the Obama administration.

Obama stopped the release or transfer of Yemeni inmates in 2010, because the conditions in the country were viewed as too "unsettled" at the time.

A release or transfer of 55 inmates means Obama is moving out one third of the prisoners at Guantanamo. And while it doesn't represent a shutdown of the facility, it's certainly indicative of a move toward that end.

Could it be that Obama is trying to set himself up to campaign as the man who is taking steps to finally close Gitmo, just as he recently reversed the Afghanistan surge in order to campaign as the man who's winding down the war in the Afghanistan?

The ACLU has praised the releases as "a partial victory for transparency."

Did former Gitmo prisoner plan raid?

This is so wrong on so many levels. I am speechless.

Don't worry. They'll be back, either here or somewhere in Europe.

O'bama is working really hard to kill his chances of reelection because he can't do the job. The stress is killing him. Everyone is now aware that ambassador Stevens was killed in a riot caused by an ex Guatanamo detainee.

Just another one of his many lie.

I would like to see the US pay the Russians to take them off our hands. A nice cool place like Siberia would work.

Maybe we can hook up a satellite dish to a wood chipper and attempt to "transmit [them] to Vladimir"?  :popcorn:

All you have to do is lube the wood chipper with bacon grease and they get no virgins.  Why waste a perfectly good ham sandwich on one of Allah's demonic spawn?

I was admittedly ignorant about Afganistan until they started blowing up ancient Budhist statues and I read a bit about them prior to 9/11 and the way those savages treated captured commies was despicable.  Granted Russia shouldn't have been there but that was Carter One's problem.
