A Saudi security official admitted recently that at least 25 former Saudi Gitmo detainees have returned to terror after going through the country’s rehabilitation program.
Reuters reported:
Around 25 former detainees from Guantanamo Bay camp returned to militancy after going through a rehabilitation program for al Qaeda members in Saudi Arabia, a Saudi security official said on Saturday.
The United States have sent back around 120 Saudis from the detention camp at the U.S. naval base in Cuba, set up after the U.S. launched a “war on terror” following the September 11 attacks by mostly Saudi suicide hijackers sent by al Qaeda.
Saudi Arabia, the world’s top oil exporter, has put the returned prisoners along with other al Qaeda suspects through a rehabilitation program which includes religious re-education by clerics and financial help to start a new life.
The scheme, which some 300 extremists have attended, is part of anti-terrorism efforts after al Qaeda staged attacks inside the kingdom from 2003-06. These were halted after scores of suspects were arrested with the help of foreign experts.
Around 11 Saudis from Guantanamo have gone to Yemen, an operating base for al Qaeda, while others have been jailed again or killed after attending the program, said Abdulrahman al-Hadlaq, Director General of the General Administration for Intellectual Security overseeing the rehabilitation.
He pinpointed strong personal ties among former prisoners but also tough U.S. tactics as the reason why some 20 percent of the returned Saudis relapsed into militancy compared to 9.5 percent of other participants in the rehabilitation program.

The Saudis Gitmo-Jihadi Rehabilitation Program? I ask you… how does 4 months of sitting in a circle chanting “Must Kill The Infidel! Must Kill The Infidel!”, constitute rehabilitation?

The only permanent deterrent to terrorism is a bullet between the terrorist’s eyes.

It now seems that every thing the left cried about the Patriot act, is coming true. The only problem is it is they that are taking, or trying to take away all of our fought for rights. They are attacking the internet, taking over private industry, trying to silence radio. Where is all the crying now? Crickets.

What a waste of time! Do terrorists actually warrant being rehabilitated after committing mass murders? Bleeding-heart liberals.

The Saudi’s forgot the lasr step in the rehabilitation, the frozen sausage bullet between the eyes.
Also known as the pork stuffed mohammedian therapy.

sorry, last.
Joanne commented:
Thank you Commie Blaster. I have seen this Birth Certificate earlier, and I am glad to see if filed in Court. Will this bring Obama down once and for all, or are the U.S. courts too corrupt to crack? We will see.
Joanne commented:
I mean…..”see ‘it’ filed in Court.”

Oh, yeah, the “US torture program” which made these guys feel they were drowning for maybe up to two minutes, and left the detainees with NO scars, NO disabilities, and full use of their hands and feet and eyes and genitalia.
Horrible, just horrible. Mmm-hmmm.
Is anybody comparing how the home-grown terrorists who attempted to blow up the Saudi oil complex were treated in prison? I expect it’s sort of like the “nobody’s asking about what happened to the Somali pirates who seized that Russian ship” thing: CERTAIN countries are just EXPECTED to be sub-human, and their leaders don’t give a fig about “world opinion” anyway; so whatever atrocities they commit pass unremarked.
It’s only the civilized West which allows itself to be browbeaten by the “world opinion” of despotic third-world countries in which the “disappearing” of fractious citizens is an everyday occurrence.
Stanley commented:
They believe in their imagination that they can manipulate God, essentially by bringing chaos to the world because it was said the ” hidden imam” would come at a time of great peril and bring peace. If God’s timing can be manipulated by mere men, how can He be a God that is sovereign? If this god can be manipulated than he is but a mere mental construct only and at the end of days God will reply, I Never Knew You, Depart from me! These particular one’s will soon discover it was not like they thought at all. Surprise, surprise.

ISLAM AND MARXISM – A MARRIAGE
MADE IN ALLAH’S SOCIALIST PARADISE
[It just so happens, that these tenets (multiculturalism, political
correctness, and radical environmentalism) represent three of the
four pillars that are the foundation of an evolving epistemological,
ethical and political strategy that the socialist remnants in the world
have conceptualized and implemented to prevent their ideology
from entering the dustbin of history.
And, what is most interesting is that, even as they encourage and enable Islam with the first three pillars; the Islamofascists are aiding and abetting them by using the fourth pillar- Terrorism.]
UN
["My hope is that this charter will be
a kind of Ten Commandments" -MG
"The real goal of the Earth Charter is that it will
in fact become like the Ten Commandments" -MS]
Islam
[Today, the responsibility, which used to be laid at
the door of God, is fastened on the shoulders of man.]
“I am confident that we can create a Kingdom right here on Earth.”
‘We are God’s partners in matters of life and death’
‘my individual salvation is not gonna come about
without a collective salvation for the country’ .…
evidently Obama believes the New World
Order rests upon his messianic shoulders..
Obama ~ Chaos In Charge

Sorry for the delay. Obama’s wisdom sayings immediately reminded of the biblical account of the tower of Babel. Pride before the fall. Great post bg!

Blowhard would say these guys became terrorists because of their treatment at Gitmo.
So why haven’t you closed Gitmo, Blowhard?
Biggest jive act in American history.
