Go Directly To Jihad, Do Not Pass Gitmo

The American Thinker has an interesting article on the revolving door at Gitmo

By the summer of 2007, the Pentagon reported that "at least 30 former GTMO detainees have taken part in anti-coalition militant activities after leaving U.S. detention."

One of those 30 released was Abdullah Mehsud.

"After his release he went back to the fight, becoming a militant leader within the Mehsud tribe in southern Waziristan... In mid-October 2004, Mehsud directed the kidnapping of two Chinese engineers in Pakistan... In July 2007, Mehsud carried out a suicide bombing as Pakistani Police closed in on his position. Over 1,000 people are reported to have attended his funeral services."
