The liberal belief that expecting the president to follow the law is "stupid" has always amused me.

These guys fought on our side against the Russians at one point and then us because they didn't like us in their country. They aren't terrorists in the way Al Qaeda is. They are regional are they not?

Never leave one our own behind. BS. Where was Obama the night of 09/11/2012, when he left four of our own to die?
Burn our consulate, kill our ambassador and 3 more Americans for good , Obama and Hillary apologize to the terrorists and punish an American citizen. The Taliban insists on the release of the top 5 detainees held by the US, Obama complies. Open season on our diplomats and embassies US citizens turned into get out of jail free cards for terrorists. My, what great for in policy from President Obama.

They sure as f*ck are terrorists. They also have ties to Al Qaeda and were all deemed to be an extremely high risk to the US.

They weren't at Gitmo for littering or jaywalking.

Quote:
The five men released are considered highly dangerous. Khirullah Said Wali Khairkhwa and Abdul Haq Wasiq are classified as a “high risk” to the United States. Two others, Mohammad Fazl and Mullah Norullah Mori, were present during the 2001 prison riot at Mazar-e Sharif when CIA paramilitary officer Johnny Micheal Spann was killed. Fazl is thought to be the Taliban “army chief of staff”) and a longtime al-Qaeda ally. Wasiq reportedly helped train al-Qaeda. Mullah Norullah Noori, a senior military commander also reportedly have ties with al-Qaeda. Khairullah Khairkhwa, a Taliban governor was also allegedly an al-Qaeda trainer. One is believed to be responsible for the deaths of scores of Shiites in acts of religious terror.

I saw this posted by pretty much every one of my friends who either is currently in or has served in the armed forces.



Thoughts?
