11 GITMO Freed

US transfers 11 prisoners out of Guantánamo Bay

by Brad Dress

The U.S. on Monday transferred 11 prisoners out of Guantánamo Bay, the latest batch of inmates to leave the infamous facility in Cuba that once held around 780 detainees.

The 11 prisoners were Yemeni nationals, according to the Defense Department, and their transfer to the country of Oman brings the detainee population at the site down to just 15 people.

President Biden has continued the mission of the Obama administration to transfer prisoners out and wind down operations at the site that has become infamous for accusations of torture and abuse as the U.S. carried out the war on terrorism.

The Pentagon also announced a detainee transfer to Tunisia in December, but it’s unclear if Biden intends to bring down the population even further before he leaves office.

The Hill

One detainee was released IAW an executive order signed by Obama in 2009. The others were authorized after a “…thorough, interagency review by career professionals who unanimously determined all detainees as transfer eligible consistent with the national security interests of the United States,” according to an unnamed Pentagon spox. I am filled with confidence in the also unnamed career professionals’ ability to resolve remaining the GITMO issues. I do question exactly whose interests are involved, and what those interests may be.

I’ll empty GITMO on day one of my presidency. Unfortunately, in transporting the prisoners, I anticipate multiple system failures in the unmanned aircraft that is transporting them from Cuba, with the aircraft lost at sea and100 percent fatalities.

I’ll announce in a somber tone: “Although we believe Hashit ma Drawours was in the aircraft, all names are being withheld because, well, nobody cares if they all die.”

YES!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Biden signed the death warrants of so many innocent people with this simple act of stupidity.

Worst president in US history.

Every time we say that he won the Worst President in History Title, he does something else to set the bar so high, no one can ever break it and take his title.

As this news breaks I saw on a friend’s instagram a photo of Americans testifying against and identifying Germans in the war crimes trials — specifically those responsible for the Malmedy Massacre. The comments by today’s “enlightened” youth sickens me… “typical American arrogance, putting on a show of theatrics before executing the wrong guys.”

They’d have never have guessed in 1945 that by the start of the next century their own descendants and country folk would turn on them and label them as the real criminals. Didn’t take long at all for society to completely collapse.

We now know the reason that we have either quit, slowed extremely down, or change history classes and government classes for our youth. I think the same of removing cursive writing and reading.

At first, I thought it was conspiracy theories, but know believe it was all part of a bigger plan.

Deckie,
The guy is a lying, tin shit weasel turd, worse than that even, but I don’t think it’s that moronic idiot making these decisions. Everyone says, “oh man what if Kamala would have won”, but I believe now and have all along that its Barry Zero calling these shots and maybe even with some input from Crazy Nancy, Big Mike and Das Hildabeast. No matter who the Demorats would have run up there, Homey Da Clown would be in charge. Not taking the blame off that feeble-minded old pedo, asshole Joe, but I don’t think he has a clue what’s going on. They just push him out there to make the announcement. Hell, I doubt if he realizes when he craps his pants.

AND, if they revert back to their old ways, to whom do we hold accountable? Inquiring minds would like to know.

“…to whom do we hold accountable? Inquiring minds would like to know.”
Biden and Obama.
We might not be able to punish them…
But Almighty God will judge them (and they won’t be getting a “get out of jail” free card either).

Well, based on what happened with those Taliban/Al Queda ‘slamonazis we released back to Doha, they will likely rejoin the Jihad.

Fyrfighter

Just as the JEF intended…

Damn that smirking witch!
Editors, can I say that?

While the final determination is to be made by the Judge of All Mankind, applying the principle “By their fruits you will know them” I can confidently opine that they are currently damned to an eternity in torment in the Lake of Fire.
While I know that forgiveness is open to all, these folks have presumed upon God’s mercy and claimed to be innocent – and there is a point beyond which there is no return. I believe they have passed that point.

Graybeard

In other words: “Yes, you can say that.”

Jihadis to be returning heroes in their home sh*tholes shortly.

C’mon folks, say it with me, once more, with feeling!

FUCK JOE BIDEN.

Marine0331

Fuck Joe Biden!!! Ahhh, it does feel good!!!

With a pineapple.

Would it be wrong to implant them with a tracker chip of some kind, you know, something that provides a constant GPS grid coordinate? That way, when they revert to their previous terroristic ways, a Hellfire can guide itself in and BOOM! More martyrs for the cause!

Not wrong at all. Make it a condition of release!

Fyrfighter

I was thinking something like the implants Samuel L Jackson used in The Kingsman Golden Circle movie.. when they eventually (probably sooner than later) return to their terrorist ways, push one button, and instant splodey dope!

Jimbojszz

Right on the money!

11B-Mailclerk

Hm. I was thinking the one used by Denzel Washington’s character in Man on Fire.

Tracking chips encased in a cyanide capsule implanted in their brain. With a remote detonator switch. Just in case we run in to these animals again.

Don’t worry, comrades. We will see them again, but they will be wearing explosive vests.

Good! Empty out GITMO.
Make more room for the REAL American terrorists…..Kongress, judges, and bureaucrats.

Here? In the US of A? Say it ain’t so…

Slow Joe

FJB is hellbent on doing as much damage as possible in his last days in office.
Brace yourselves for next week. It can only get worse before is over.

Deckie

And Chuckie Schumer calls him “a patriot.”

Hah!

Roh-Dog

If by “patriot” you mean ‘leaving a garage full of secret docs for your crackhead son –whom you later pardon for commiting high treason with you– to go thru without oversight’, and ‘allowing the same mechanisms you put in place to spy on your opposition to find, observe, and unperson anyone that questions the efficacy of an untested bio treatment or tranny story hour in public schools’, then yeah, total patriot.

Happy (belated) J6. Can’t spell patriot without riot.

Never fucking forgive.

Mr. Pinochet sez…”Spin up my whirly bird and watch this!”

My, My, My

Everyone says O H B has been running the country the last four years; I do agree. I wonder how many plays he allowed backup C R H to run over the years.

Too damn many!

Just sittin’ here hopin’ that the next terrorism attack that takes place on American soil that kills over 3000 people will happen after I have gone to the other side of the divide between this world and the next.
I don’t want to have to face that kind of monumental bullshit that has been loosed upon us by our own government in this most recent administration.
I can’t BELIEVE that I have actually lived long enough to see the time where my country was teetering on the brink of destruction because of the actions of a political party I used to be a member of.
