Released Gitmo prisoners end up as Taliban leaders

Rep. Mark Kirk (R-IL) shares some disturbing news:

Kirk said NATO Major Gen. Michael T. Flynn told him, “Tell the people back home this: that not only are the people being released from Guantanamo and rejoining Jihad against the United States and our allies in Afghanistan, but the Gitmo detainees are they hardest nut to crack. . . their status as someone who was at Gitmo makes them instant leaders.

“I would urge the administration to stop all further releases from Guantanamo because otherwise they enter our battlespace.”

Are our brave troops having to fight the Taliban and the White House? I hate to put it that way, but this is exactly what’s happening according to the Congressman.

Stop. The. Insanity.

Being through Gitmo is seen as a badge of honor to these terrorists. There is little doubt they will rejoin the anti-American forces once returned to Afghanistan. Why not? It’s considered a promotion for these Gitmo alumni.
