OH MY GOSH.  Have you read the background on these people?  Freedom fighters?  If this were not so serious, this would be hilarious. [/quote]

Perhaps he read a factually accurate description of their background rather than the factually-challenged post of yours.

The information I posted regarding these terrorists comes from the Pentagon dossier.  Obama himself admits they could “return to activities that are detrimental to us.”  Freedom Fighters, my foot.  If you need to “brush up” on your knowledge of this “freedom fighters” (cough, cough), read this account from the Daily Beast.  Yep - these men are simply soldiers fighting for a good cause.  If you believe these men to be anything by the terrorists they are, you are delusional. 
[quote]According to a 2008 Pentagon dossier on Guantanamo Bay inmates, all five men released were considered to be a high risk to launch attacks against the United States and its allies if they were liberated.
While not as well known as Guantanamo inmates like 9-11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the Taliban 5 were some of the worst outlaws in the U.S. war on terror. And their release will end up replenishing the diminished leadership ranks of the Afghan Taliban at a moment when the United States is winding down the war there.[/quote]

PP, do you know what a freedom fighter is?  To them, the U.S.A. Is an aggressive force, who invaded and occupied their land in an aggressive force. A freedom fighter resists against an illegitimate or oppressive force or government. We are that force in Afghanistan. It's a war I get it, but do you really expect the entire citizenry to just sit back without attempting to fight back.  And because it was/is a war of aggression POWs occur. Or do you think that anyone who fights back against the US is an automatic terrorist. I know people like you think that we, the united states of America, are omnipotent and omniscient, everybody else should bow down and heal, but thats not reality
