Terror inmates may be released in US: intel chief
Breitbart
President Barack Obama’s intelligence chief confirmed Thursday that some Guantanamo inmates may be released on US soil and receive assistance to return to society.
“If we are to release them in the United States, we need some sort of assistance for them to start a new life,” said National Intelligence Director Dennis Blair at his first press conference.
“You can’t just put them on the street,” he added. “All that is work in progress.”
Obama has vowed to close the controversial prison camp by next January and has ordered individual reviews for cases against each of the over 240 remaining prisoners.
Blair told reporters that the review of Guantanamo cases was still underway, and that the government was “building dossiers on each of the detainees.”
The Obama administration is currently evaluating what could be done with the prisoners, he said, but pledged that if they are sent to another country, “we have to be sure that that country will treat them in a humane fashion.”
Twenty men detained at the remote US naval base at Guantanamo Bay in southern Cuba have been cleared of terrorism charges, including 17 Chinese Uighurs ordered released by a US court in June, seven years after their arrest. But the US says they may face persecution if returned to China.
Wild Thing’s comment……..
“If we are to release them in the United States, we need some sort of assistance for them to start a new life,”
So, not only is the Obama administration planning on freeing some detainees on U.S. soil, it is also going to pay them to live here. Amazing. Who would have thought that we would see the day when detainees who were once labeled enemy combatants would be receiving welfare?
Only Obama, a man who grew up palling around with terrorists and openly describes an admitted terrorist/murderer as “mainstream” could think it’s a good idea to release terrorists in the United States and give them “some sort of assistance for them to start a new life” at our expense.
And regarding the Uighur detainees , they were mostly new recruits at the time of their capture. They are all affiliated with and/or members of a designated terrorist organization, received training at a training camp in the al Qaeda/Taliban stronghold of Tora Bora, and have admitted that they were trained by two known terrorists. And, on top of that, the group that trained them threatened to attack the Olympic Games in China last year.
How about “NO” to the assistance. There are way too many honest hardworking Americans who are down on their luck right now who need the assistance more. You don’t coddle terrorists. God have we got our priorities screwed up!
And where exactly are these ‘people’ going to be released. This is nuts. Talk about inviting trouble.
Time to start loading magazines.
“Thank you for killing us and hating us. Here’s your house and some cash…oh, and a nice new car. Please don’t put bodies in the trunk…ha ha ha. Oops! Sorry, forgot to tell you the house is in a militantly Christian neighborhood full of Bible-reading gun-owning patriots who will keep an eye on you. Good luck!” No other country in the world would invite their enemy to live with them…don’t have to seal the borders, Obama will just bring them in and care for ’em on our dime. This goes beyond stupidity.
Inside the Whitehouse, they can share bedrooms with the kiddies and take care of Bitchelle’s garden. Now if that isn’t enough assistance they can hang around in my tree and I’ll furnish the rope!!!
Just what we need, 17 more Chinese restaurants.
I wonder just when and if most Obama supporters will wake up any brain cells they may have and realize the destruction this bastard commie is bringing on America.
I’m SHAKING after read this. SHAKING with anger, disgust, disdain, and contemt at the RECKLESS and CRIMINAL act about to be perpetrated upon our GREAT NATION by the POSER, AMATEUR, COMMIE BASTARD whose election was a BOUGHT and PAID FOR by those that seek to bring down OLD GLORY, and the GROSS TRAVESTY of what is being reaped(raped?!)…and HEAPED upon her….by those falsely posing as ‘Americans’, HA!
First Holder and now his unintelligent intelligence chief. WTF is going on. I have said this before but I feel like I’m inside the looking glass at Alice’s Wonderland sitting at the Mad Hatter’s tea party. This POS, his administration and Congressional cohorts have not a clue as to how people feel.

Lynn, yes it is all upside down thinking. To even suggest they get any kind of assistance on top of wanting them on our soil, NO to both, I agree.
Mark, I think so as well, this is totally inviting trouble.
PeteSuj, good one! Loved how you put that.
Jack,LOL good one. All the cleaning, yard work, laundry, errands, and that is just for starters.
Tom, LMAO that is so funny.
pontiff alex, DITTO all you said!!!! Well said pontiff alex, thank you.
Bob A., I agree. If this was back when I was a kid this kind of thing would not even be spoken to admit a person would think to do such things with these terrorists. I wish more people would pay attention, what is scary too if if they are and just don’t care.
