#1 The next time some lefty Clinton appointed judge forces us to release a piece of human fertilizer from Gitmo, get the Islamofart assigned to be an intern in the senate office of Durbin, Leahy, or Kennedy, etc...

#2 It'll be ignored a month from now, if true. Remember Abdullah Mehsud? A Gitmo veteran?

#3 I'd take the suggestion that a Gitmo graduate had a hand in this with a mine of salt grains from Saltzburg.

#4 Boy i wish they had more facts on that page than just a statement. I am with Mmurray as far as putting the whole bunch to sleep after lunch. It would be a HUGE hit on Turbin Bin Durbin.

#5 Allahpundit used to call homelandsecurityus.com "the world's most alarmist website". Sounds like open speculation rather than anything backed by facts, doesn't it?

#6 Even if it is true, the LLL will merely say that he was just a poor, innocent boy who was radicalized by his stay at Club Gitmo (he didn't even get a T-shirt;) rather than that it was a fair cop all along.

#7 The guy that runs this site is a blowhard alarmist with a long history of propagating utter BS. Sheesh, even Stratfor is more reliable.

#8 Steve Quayle doesn't publish Northeast Intelligence Network (homelandsecurityus.com). They link to him, though. And he is a nut, but nuts can be useful, too.

They're in that same reliable/unreliable zone that Debka is in. Like any other source, there's a variety of positives and negatives. Sometimes they get ahold of information about an attack that doesn't happen, and in that case its in everybody's interest to deny it, and they appear to be unreliable when they're not. Sometimes their analysis of the facts isn't poor, even though it's based on solid fact. And sometimes they're fed disinformation.

I appreciate them because they arent' just a news wire -- they try to predict things. If you're in the prediction business, especially in this WoT area, you've got to push the limits a bit. I think the key is not to read them in isolation, but to look at what they're saying in the overall context of things.

#9 I kinda doubt this, mainly because the guys behind this would figure that a Gitmo alum would be under surveillance, and that would make him radioactive, as far as they would be concerned.

#10 mainly because the guys behind this would figure that a Gitmo alum would be under surveillance

So what? Surveillance? What does that matter, if no one will ever arrest them?

This wouldn't surprise me at all. In fact, I half expect it.

#11 RC: You could be right. I was just trying to think like the perps - okay, hallucinate like the perps. It would stand to reason that the security guys would at least want to know where someone like this was living and who he was spending his time with. At the very least, I'd think they would want to know if he was a subscriber to Guns and Ammo or Jihadi Today.
