It was there that recruiter Abu Nassim was acquitted of all terror charges.

USA Today reported that the latest release was approved earlier this week, when the administration signed off on letting 15 more terror detainees leave Guantanamo Bay.
“Once again, hardened terrorists are being released to foreign countries where they will be a threat,” California Rep. Ed Royce, a Republican, said, according to the newspaper.
But does Obama care? Nope. Does the liberal media care? Nope. Does anyone care? Conservatives do. And so should the innocent men, women and children who could very well be these terrorists’ next victims …
