My Comment: The White House suppression of the U.S. Government's recent report that tabulates the number of Gitmo detainees who have returned to Jihad is a red flag to any one who is concerned about these things.
The sticking point are those who are from Yemen .... a country that is in the middle of a civil war and experiencing an all out insurrection. The idea that Gitmo detainees can be repatriated to this failed state in a safe and organized manner is foolish and dangerous to the extreme.
Unfortunately .... it appears that this is exactly what the White House is planning to do.
