Obama, Protecting the Rights of Terrorists Everywhere

Futureman,

Release is not a choice I’d have made.

From a previous post:

READ:

Three years ago, Abdullah Saleh al-Ajmi, a Kuwaiti soldier who deserted to fight in Afghanistan alongside the Taliban, sat in a detention cell at the U.S. naval base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, while lawyers argued whether he was an “enemy combatant.”

Last week, a Dubai-based television channel reported that al-Ajmi was killed carrying out a homicide bombing in Mosul, Iraq.

While the report did not specify which attack Abdullah carried out, Iraqi officials reported that Mosul was hit on April 26 by three homicide attacks, killing seven people.

CBS News reported that al-Ajmi carried out an attack on Wednesday, April 30, according to an unconfirmed report posted on a jihadist Web site.

Al-Ajmi’s cousin, Salem, reportedly told Al-Arabiya television that , “We were shocked by the painful news we received … from one of the friends of martyr Abdullah in Iraq.”

Salem al-Ajmi reportedly said a friend told his cousin’s family that the 30-year-old former detainee had fled Kuwait about two weeks ago.

Abdullah Saleh al-Ajmi, who was repatriated to Kuwait in November, 2005, was free on bail there awaiting trial on charges he helped to raise money for Al Qaeda.

U.S. counterterrorism analysts argued in a review of al-Ajmi’s activities that he should not be released or returned to Kuwait based on the following:

— That he deserted from the Kuwaiti army to participate in a jihad in Afghanistan;

— The Taliban supplied him with arms, including grenades;

— He admitted fighting with the Taliban, including engaging in two or three firefights;

— He was captured by coalition forces in the Tora Bora region, an area once thought to be a hideout of Usama bin Laden;

— That upon his arrival at Guantanamo he demonstrated “aggressive” behavior; and,

— Based on a review of classified and unclassified documents, al-Ajmi was declared a threat to the United States and its allies.

Guess who helped him out? The same law firm who represented the Taliban and Al Qaeda prisoners taken after the bloody battle at the Qala-I-Jangi fortress in Afghanistan.

……12 Kuwaitis picked up in Afghanistan and detained at Guantanamo Bay in 2002. Their families retained Tom Wilner and the prestigious law firm of Shearman & Sterling early that same year. Arguably, it is Mr. Wilner’s aggressive representation, along with the determined efforts of the Kuwait government, that has had the greatest influence in the outcome of all the enemy combatant cases, in the court of law and in the court of public opinion. The lawsuit filed on their behalf, renamed Rasul v. Bush when three cases were joined, is credited with opening the door for the blizzard of litigation that followed.

……It turns out that Shearman & Sterling, a 1,000-lawyer firm with offices in 19 cities all over the world, has substantial business dealings on six continents. Indeed, Shearman’s client care for Middle Eastern matters has established a new industry standard: The firm’s Abu Dhabi office states that it has pioneered the concept of “Shariah-compliant” financing. In Kuwait, the firm has represented the government on a wide variety of matters involving billions of dollars worth of assets. So the party underwriting the litigation on behalf of the Kuwaiti 12–from which all of the detainees have benefited–is one of Shearman & Sterling’s most lucrative OPEC accounts

The focus of these shysters is to draw attention away from the muslim atrocities and portray them as “innocent victims of Islamophobia” following 9/11. Forget the fact that the fuckers were caught after firefights, planting IEDs, or during sweeps of terrorist hideouts and strongholds.

The muslim shits like the “Kuwait 12” are poster boys for the ‘take no prisoners’ motto.

We A-bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki to bring the war in the Pacific to a halt. The Japanese got the message. BTW: They never did suffer the full consequence of atrocities like the Bataan Death March. They got off pretty easy. Same for the Germans. We used tactics in Germany like fire-bombing Dresden for 10 days. The Germans were finally defeated after we pummeled enough of them, but in light of the Holocaust and the way they treated American prisoners, they too, got off light.

You’re gonna have to divest yourself of the notion that we’re fighting an enemy that plays ‘fair’ or by the Marquis of Queensberry rules. They don’t have your liberal sensitivity and couldn’t care less about Geneva, much less find it on a map. Doesn’t do a whole lot of good when we’re the only ones expected to adhere to an obsolete, ineffectual ‘treaty’.

Just compare the lack of outrage over the beheadings, use of children and mentally retarded individuals as suicide bombers, and indiscriminate killings on the part of the muslims you sympathize with, to the hyperbolic bullshit being leveled at GITMO Soldiers trying to do their jobs. How’d ya like to endure getting feces and urine getting thrown on you as well as false accusations of ‘abuse’? That’s part of what those little muslim fucksticks do on a daily basis. Use your sympathy for people who deserve it, like the victims of the ‘peaceful religion of Islam’, past and present.

As for the Iraqis, (most of them are muslim) they should be grateful…that I wasn’t in charge.

Today is the 7th anniversay of 9/11. Remember who was responsible.
