The latest duhh-flection:

122 vicious prisoners, released by the Obama Administration from Gitmo, have returned to the battlefield. Just another terrible decision!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 7, 2017

""90% of those detainees were released during the George W. Bush administration, not that of Obama""

... the Office of the Director of National Intelligence said that of the 122 Gitmo detainees who returned to the battlefield, only nine of them were released after Obama took office in January 2009...

Linky

And Fox and friends had run a story on it earlier sans the Obama part.

He can't really be this unfiltered...

Fox and Friends...
You can pretty much just stop right there

My takeaway from this is that they had the right dudes in Gitmo

The further takeaway is that we shouldn't take prisoners. Just kill them

I know this is false because Obama closed all of the scary illegal bases.

Nothing to see here, fake news, alternative facts.

You guys should just stop.

...it is hard to take anyone seriously if they can't do 3rd grade math.

Number imprisoned at Guantanamo by the Department of Defense since the prison opened: 779

I don't totally disagree with the general sentiment, but if you take 122 and divide it by 738 (subtracting the 41 remaining 'combatants') that would place the 'recidivism' rate at less than 17%.

The big picture being: We've now been dicking around in Iraq for 26+ years (after 'embracing' Saddam as a 'useful' terrorist for the prior 10 years). Ditto for Iran since 1979 (or, 1954, depending upon your point of view). The end result is: Saddam is dead (along with a million others? - including 5,000 or so of America's finest), hundreds of thousands maimed (including tens of thousands of America's finest), trillions of tax dollars dispensed ... 'making friends and influencing people' in the ME.

Creating a Shia Domain from Iran to Syria, and a defacto non-Arab autonomous Kurdistan within Iraq (that includes a Constitutionally-mandated referendum for independence!).

While our good 'friends' at the House of Saud continue with state-sponsored Wahhabism, and exported 13 of the 17 jihadists who attacked America on 9/11. We keep making our bed in the ME while defecating in it at the same time -- creating generational jihadists who want to kill us.

We need to stop, and let them kill each other until they get tired of it. If they pal-around with some of their jihadi buddies and collude in efforts to bring harm to America, shoot a China-labeled HellFire up their posterior, or a Rooskie-made Tomahawk in their left ear. Get us the heck out of harm's way and let natural selection play out.

Where have you been for the last .... forever that I have been saying this?


But let's assume (correctly) that we will continue to be the world's hammer for every nail:

A lot of the people in Gitmo had intel value at the time, and them having aided and abetted Al Qaeda means I don't have a lot of sympathy for them...

but Gitmo was proven in the end to be a bad idea that was caused by caving to the bleeding hearts- rendition to places like Albania or a friendly Egypt is eeevil! So let's give them three hots and a cot in Gitmo.

So Gitmo's biggest effect is going to be twofold:

1. Kill don't capture

2. Use rendition on the high value intel targets

The End

A-ho is a little slow on the uptake. His boy Obama mucked up the ME for 8 years, making places like Libya, Syria, Iraq (yeah, it is worse...just wait until they get rid of ISIS and turn on themselves and the Kurds), and Yemen worse (along with the problems of the refugees that those actions started), but we don't hear about that from the Obomba fans until he gets out of office.

Bottom line is that Trump was once again way off base while making an assertion. That's the point. There is no connection between the world Donald Trump lives in and reality. We have a Chief Executive of the Executive Branch of the Government of the United States who is totally divorced from reality. That's the situation.
