#2 (Oct 17-04 AP) U.S. military officials say that despite being freed in exchange for signing pledges to renounce violence, at least seven former prisoners of the United States at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, have returned to terrorism, at times with deadly consequences.

At least two are believed to have died in fighting in Afghanistan, and a third was recaptured during a raid of a suspected training camp in Afghanistan, said Lt. Cmdr. Flex Plexico, a Pentagon spokesman. Others are at large.

Additional former detainees are said to have expressed a desire to rejoin the fight, be it against U.N. peacekeepers in Afghanistan, Americans in Iraq or Russian soldiers in Chechnya.

Signing a release agreement means nothing...they are soldiers of God not pawns of men.

Kick ass! Taken names! No prisoners!

#4 Yemen will release dozens of detainees suspected of belonging to al-Qaida after they have repented and renounced violence, reports said Monday.

Ha ha ha. They "repented".

Say, any Yemenis in the market for some transportation infrastructure? I have something to sell at a bargain basement price...
