The innocent Afghans confined by the Bush Regime turned to radical Islam only after their tortuous experiences at Club Gitmo.
Was it Gitmo rage that forced Abdullah Saleh al-Ajmi to blow himself up in Iraq after his stay in Gitmo?
Tom Lasseter at McClatchy News says that innocent Afghan prisoners turned to violent jihad only after their stay at Gitmo.
McClatchy Newspapers reported:
Mohammed Naim Farouq was a thug in the lawless Zormat district of eastern Afghanistan . He ran a kidnapping and extortion racket, and he controlled his turf with a band of gunmen who rode around in trucks with AK-47 rifles.How sad-- the innocent turnip farmers were forced into extremism because of Bushitler.
U.S. troops detained him in 2002, although he had no clear ties to the Taliban or al Qaida. By the time Farouq was released from Guantanamo the next year, however - after more than 12 months of what he described as abuse and humiliation at the hands of American soldiers - he'd made connections to high-level militants.
In fact, he'd become a Taliban leader. When the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency released a stack of 20 "most wanted" playing cards in 2006 identifying militants in Afghanistan and Pakistan - with Osama bin Laden at the top - Farouq was 16 cards into the deck.
A McClatchy investigation found that instead of confining terrorists, Guantanamo often produced more of them by rounding up common criminals, conscripts, low-level foot soldiers and men with no allegiance to radical Islam - thus inspiring a deep hatred of the United States in them - and then housing them in cells next to radical Islamists.

It's all Bush's fault.
Obviously there is no alternative that fits the facts. Evidently McClatchy has never heard of Ockham's Razor, either.
ReplyDeleteI don't believe a damn word McClatchy publishes about Iraq, including 'the' and 'and'.
McClatchy Investigative Team = Canadian CAIR.
ReplyDeleteI could never understand why Stein wrote for them in the first place. Says much about papers in Canada I guess.
Lord knows we have our own problems down here.
"and then housing them in cells next to radical Islamists."
ReplyDeleteI see.
So better still is bringing these guys in our country and housing them next to our low level criminals?
The same page of my local McClatchy rag that shows McClatchy's 'Gitmo analysis' shows that they're laying off 1400 workers. 120 locally.
ReplyDeleteWonder if there's any corelation between newspaper profits and printing constant anti-American spew? Naw, couldn't be a factor.
Bad luck to McClatchy. Good luck to the flunkies they're "Obama-ing" under the bus.
One more time, we simply must remember that the Leftist worldview insists that: THERE ARE NO (Zero) TERRORISTS IN THE WORLD. The corrolaries are; Those captured on the battlefield were defending their homes (freedom fighters, insurgents). The United States and Israel are to blame for any terrorism in the world. Besides, Bush is the real terrorist.
ReplyDeletePeople, the media and the Democrat Party will never admit that any particular person or group are terrorists except Bin Ladin, and if he were to be captured tomorrow, they would be tripping over themselves to make excuses for him and to get him an ACLU lawyer. Because...THERE ARE NO TERRORI.........
I know. The idea that someone might turn to Islam in prison is pretty ridiculous. I mean, that *never* happens here in the U.S.
