Obama: Gitmo Terrorists To Be Freed In US And Given Welfare Checks
Here, from the Associated Press, is a partial account of DNI Dennis Blair’s first press conference today (emphasis mine):
During his news conference, Blair also said the Obama administration is still wrestling with what to do with the remaining 240 detainees at the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, which the president has ordered closed.
Some of the detainees, deemed non-threatening, may be released into the United States as free men, Blair confirmed.
That would happen when they can’t be returned to their home countries, because the governments either won’t take them or the U.S. fears they will be abused or tortured. That is the case with 17 Uighurs (WEE’-gurz), Chinese Muslim separatists who were cleared for release from the jail long ago. The U.S. can’t find a country willing to take them, and it will not turn them over to China.
Blair said the former prisoners would have [to] get some sort of assistance to start their new lives in the United States.
“We can’t put them out on the street,” he said.
Four short questions/comments:
(1) Does this mean that the Obama administration is planning on giving some freed Guantanamo detainees a stipend? It sure appears that way. 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?
(2) The Uighur detainees are cited, over and over again, as the types of detainees who can be safely released into the U.S. This conclusion has been reached through a combination of specious reasoning and ignorance.
None of the 17 Uighurs are master terrorists on par with the likes of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. They were mostly new recruits at the time of their capture. However, as I have argued before, 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.
Even if you don’t think that we should lock them up and throw away the key, do we really want to pay them to live on U.S. soil?
(3) The AP says the United States can’t find a country to take the Uighurs, other than China, which may treat them harshly. But that really remains to be seen. Ireland, for example, has apparently offered to take some Guantanamo detainees. Other European nations have been somewhat more reticent.
(4) Is the Obama administration considering paying other Guantanamo detainees to live in the U.S. as well?

So let me understand this:
We free terrorists into the US, & provide them with paychecks but we send an American soldier, Lieutenant Michael Behenna, to prison for 25 years for killing a known Al Qaeda operative while serving in Iraq.
What friggin bizarro world did I wake up in
A world that a country elects an illegal alien as prez
WHAT FUCKING DRUGS ARE THESE ASSHOLES ON
WHAT MORON THINKS THIS IS A GOOD IDEA, RELEASING TERROIST IN A COUNTRY THAT THEY ARE TRAINNING TO REACH SO THEY CAN KILL ITS CITIZENS. OBAMBI WAKE THE FUCK UP 
Bitch slap him awake
Why not radiate them right before release? Something heavy that will drop them within 2 weeks. Put it in the food, that will keep it from the air.
Maybe some falafel made with castor beans?
Thsi is some FUCKING BULLSHIT! Fuck obama he is a fucking terrorist lover.FUCK MUSLIMS
Why? Why do they have to be set free in the US? Why can’t they be returned to their native countries? Why are they being forced to live here and be given assistance to stay here? If they get treated harshly in their home countries, well that’s because they deserve it. Obviously, they feel these people are a threat if they do so. Where is the common-sense in the administration and courts?
I say “turn them loose in the public”……just be sure to give us their names so we can exact the justice that our pathetic government doesn’t have the balls to do.
It is seen fit (as it should be) to release to the public, photos and personal information on sex offenders being released into communities. So why not do the same for those scumbags who 1) were trained by terrorists to destroy America, 2) were captured as enemy combatants on the battlefield, and 3) still remain unrepentant and unrehabilitated?
Tell me where to pick them up.I’ll take the boys camping here in the rockies.It wont be like their beach house.
“The U.S. can’t find a country willing to take them, and it will not turn them over to China.” Did Obambi ever consider why no one else wants them?
I just think that Skinny Barry is so considerate to provide them a stipend so that they can work full-time on their terrorism.
No doubt they’ll want to give them enough money to live on, all the while there are homeless vets roaming the streets that don’t have enough money to rent a dog house.
Someone needs to file for a freedom of information act and find out all of the information about who will be released, then plaster their names, addresses and photos throughout their communities
Just a thought, but if I was released into a country that I was detained by and hated because of this, do you think I’d sit idly by and not try to enact some revenge?
Wonder if these sorts of things were ever thought out??? Idiots
“I will stand with the muslims regardless of which way the political winds may blow” …from his “audacity” book.
These are his people.He is jihadi through and through.He has mastered a very clever and sinister taquiya.He will do everything while in power to enable the destruction of the US.What is left will be under the most brutal sharia law imaginable.
Time is running out
When one of our is killed in combat, and if they have kids, those kids receive like 300 per month untill they are 18. But if the enemy is captured, then some liberal president wants to close down the most beutiful place on earth, then free these assholes in our country and give them 1000 per month for the rest of their lives. Makes about as much since as the 3rd nut i had removed. And no country will take them? come on already, we call the fuckn shots, if we are going to give them back then you will except them… period!!!! this is just plain fuckin crazy to me.
Director of National Intelligence
That’s a fucking joke
A big slap in the face to our soldiers.
Why should we care if the country they came from will torture them or kill them? It’s not our problem.
Further proof that liberalism is a mental disorder. A self-destructive mental disorder.
For this I was a Prisoner of War and in Korea and in
Vietnam? Take them by ship in the middle of the ocean
and someone (I voluteer) to push them overboard>

Or walk them out the back of C-17 over the ocean.
You can’t make this shit up—this usurper Destroyer-in-Chief is only, Jesus, 2 months into his “presidency”, and our country is already circling the shitter.
This is unacceptable. The question now becomes: are we going to just cry and whine and bitch and let our country be destroyed (a la UK)?
Obongo and his socialist Alinskyite bastards keep pushing.
What are we going to do about it?
