REPORT: One UK Homicide Bomber Was Recent GITMO Release7 July 2005; 12:54 ET: Preliminary reports from a source inside the Pentagon indicate that one of the operatives involved in this morning's bombings in London was recently released from the prison at Guantanamo. DEVELOPING...
OK This is part of my "news at face value" theory. Take it for what it is worth. Homelandsecurityus.com has come up with some scoops in the past. Still, it seems mighty early to have this information.
They report, you decided.... (But boy it would turn the politics surrounding gitmo upside-down.)
Update: Speaking of unconfirmed reports, Drudge is reporting that ABC is reporting that 2 unexploded bombs were found. Drudge has no link yet. This would be a major coop for the intelligence folks who could get mountains of data from them. (not to mention the lives it saved) Chad from Inside the Bullpen helps out with a link to the ABC story. Looks like timers, not cell phones.

if true, let's hope that was at the insistence of the UK government because the moonbats are already blaming Bush for this set of attacks, and just wait, they'll rotate their heads on their shoulders and find a way to bash the US for not keeping this guy detained, just watch........

They won't blame Bush for letting him go, they'll claim Bush created him, say that he was just a peaceful farmer before GITMO. They'll claim the torture drove him to it and those bullets he was shooting at our soldiers in Afghanistan were blanks, too....

God, that's disturbingly close to how it would be spun by the moonbats.
And in an odd, I-wish-today-didn't-have-to-happen-this-way, I hope this story turns out to be true.

Never, ever, ever underestimate the dishonesty of the left. There is no lie they won't try to pass off as the truth to support their cause, and that includes the lies they tell about what their cause truly is.

Given what's been detained at Gitmo, why would anyone be surprised if this turns out to be true? Those detainees are there for a reason in spite of what some want to believe.

Folks,
The detainees at Guantanamo Bay have all been found to be illegal combatants by a duly appointed military tribunal as per the Geneva Conventions. The only appropriate destination therafter should be a shallow un-marked grave.

I’m a moonbat. You said: “There is no lie they won't try to pass off as the truth to support their cause, and that includes the lies they tell about what their cause truly is.” I’m curious, just what do you think my true cause is?

Some people will blame Bush or Blair for any thing that happens. These are the people who have supported the terror groups, The ban the war groups, tear down Gitmo. I have seen at first hand a older Iraqi man trying to recruit asian youth into his organisation what is organisation was I do not know. But this certain Iraqi wore western clothes smoked and drunk Beer and he made himself look like a westener, but he hated the Americans and the British, he said they had no right to have bombed Iraq, and Saddam was a good leader.

The Beginnings
It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late
With long arrears to make good,
When the English began to hate.
They were not easily moved,
They were icy-willing to wait
Till every count should be proved,
Ere the English began to hate.
Their voices were even and low,
Their eyes were level and straight
There was neither sign nor show,
When the English began to hate.
It was not preached to the crowd,
It was not taught by the State.
No man spoke it aloud,
When the English began to hate.
It was not suddenly bred,
It will not swiftly abate,
Through the chill years ahead,
When Time shall count from the date
That the English began to hate.
1914, Rudyard Kipling

Bruce, your true cause is bringing socialism to America, whether you admit it or not. You may not even know it, but that's what you're working towards every time you open your little moonbat mouth.

If this is true, the left will spin it mercislessly. But it will shut up any rational people calling for Gitmo to close, maybe.

Why am I not surprised? Dispite the whining of the left the prisoners at Gitmo are not Islamic boy scouts but dangerous fanatics dedicated to the destruction of civil libertiea and democracy.

I suppose our barbaric treatment of the prisoners is the cause of this behaviour. Maybe we should let them all go free in the US. Maybe then they'd like us.
