100 GITMO Detainees Headed to Terrorist Rehab?

May 6, 2009

  I never would have believed this is I hadn’t read it. As a matter of fact I read it and I still don’t believe it. Our brilliant president is considering sending 100 terrorists to the Prince Mohammed bin Nayef Centre for Care and Counseling; a rehabilitation center for terrorists.

  Before I get into this topic I do have one question; if these people  are being sent to a terrorist rehab center than are we not admitting that these 100 detainees are terrorists? If so shouldn’t they be tried as terrorists and either convicted or released? I thought the reason we were closing GITMO is because we were holding people who were neither terrorists nor enemy combatants, this kind of throws a wet blanket on that argument, doesn’t it?

    Anyway, President Bush also tried this ridiculous idea and guess what? For the most part it does not work. Who woulda thunk it?

roughly 3,000 prisoners have participated in portions of the counseling program, and about 1,400 of them have renounced their former beliefs and been released

  Less than half of them have been released while most of them remain behind bars. They are just behind bars in a place other than GITMO so I guess that is supposed to make it okay.

  But that is not all. Out of the 85 people on the terrorist most wanted list 11 of them had been rehabbed through the ludicrous 12 point plan that this center utilizes to break the terrorists of their Jihad addiction. Who knows how many others have also relapsed  but are taking a less prominent roll to avoid detection.

  This president clearly hasn’t learned from the last president and now 100 terrorists may be released into a program designed to re-educate them and show them the error of their ways. Does anyone (besides the president) really think that it is a wise idea to take known terrorists and try to rehabilitate them and then release them back into society?

 What’s the worst that could happen? Do you really want to find out?

    Not sure if you saw it, but Ann Coulter’s article a couple weeks ago (see Human Events website) detailed the “torture” techniques being exposed. It’s a joke and she did a great job detailing the malarky.
