Suspected bus bomber Mehdi Ghezali served time in Gitmo from 2002-2004.

Former Gitmo detainee Mehdi Ghezali participated in the the Swedish documentary GITMO: The New Rules Of War that premiered in 2005. Ghezali was released from the prison in 2004. Mehdi Ghezali was apprehended by Pakistani authorities in August 2009 with a dozen other individuals. Pakistani security officials claim the travelers planned to travel to Miranshah, Waziristan, to meet with a Taliban leader.

In the movie Mehdi Ghezali told reporters he was not a terrorist and was just at the wrong place at the wrong time.

On Wednesday Mehdi Ghezali blew up a bus in Bulgaria killing himself and 8 Israeli children.

    So all those libs, including liberal jews, who agitated against the “terrible” abuse at club gitmo and provided so much propaganda to our enemies ended up being wrong, and it cost lives?

    How can that be? We have been led to believe that any liberal with a B.A. should be labeled an “intellectual”, and if only us neanderthol conservatives would get out of the way they would create a non-violent world by being nice to people and freeing prisoners.

    Think Times Square Suspect Is Scary? How About These Ex-Gitmo Detainees…

    “Mehdi Ghezali of Sweden was released from Guantanamo 2004 and authored a book entitled, Prisoner on Guantanamo: Mehdi Ghezali tells. Ghezali was re-captured by Pakistani authorities in 2009 with a group of 12 foreigners on their way to Waziristan, where Shahzad received his training.”

    Though Zuhair was arrested with Jefferson’s watch in his possession, according to Holder at a Senate hearing, there was “no sufficient proof” for continued detention.

    Politico’s headline “Pentagon: Can’t confirm Bulgaria bomber was at Guantanamo”

    Was a different released but I wanted to show Holder’s lack of a sense of danger form these sub humans. Holder must go with his boss.

    Lawyers: Ex-detainee’s trip was innocent

    Nov. 23, 2009

    STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Nov. 23 (UPI) — A former Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, detainee was not going to any terrorism centers when he was arrested in Pakistan last summer, his Swedish lawyers say.

    Peter Althin and Anton Strand, attorneys for Swedish resident Mehdi Ghezali, wrote in the Dagens Nyheter newspaper Ghezali’s Aug. 28 arrest and Oct. 11 release without serious charges came while he was merely on a trip to celebrate Ramadan in Miranshah, the main city in the lawless region of North Waziristan, the Swedish news agency TT reported Monday.

    Pakistani authorities alleged that Ghezali, along with fellow Swedes Munir Awad, 28, Safia Benaouda, 19, and their 2-year-old son were on their way to meet alleged Taliban leader Zahir Noor, TT said.

    Althin and Strand told Dagens Nyheter even though Ghezali was released from Guantanamo in 2004 without being accused of any wrongdoing, he and his family remain under the surveillance of the Swedish security service Sapo.

    “The situation seems familiar to all of us who’ve read Franz Kafka,” the attorneys wrote, alleging the Swedish media’s coverage of Ghezali smacked of “xenophobia.”

    Looks like the Swedes, and whoever thought this terrorist should be released into the public, have some blood on their hands. I hope they don’t sleep too well, and that guilt eats them alive.

    #2 I think he looks like a brown haired Carrot Top……The video opens showing the incredible courtesy the swedish spies received from the ” Gitmo death camp ” ……They define the installation of air conditioning as ” torture by freezing “……. Miranshah…the place Ghezali was arrested in Pakistan is just 225 miles from Bin Laden compound in Abbotobad.
