Biden Admin's Shocking Release of Al-Qaeda Suspects: A Final Insult to National Security?
In a move that has left many dumbfounded, the Biden administration, in its twilight days, has decided to release 11 Yemeni detainees from Guantanamo Bay, known for their suspected ties to al Qaeda. This decision comes amidst reports from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) that 12.4% of detainees released under Obama and 35% under Bush returned to terrorism.
It's a pattern that raises a chilling question: Is the Biden-Harris-Obama administration deliberately setting the stage for chaos under Trump's incoming administration?
Let's look at the precedents. Under Obama's watch, we saw:
Abdul Hafiz, released in 2009, who promptly returned to fight with the Taliban in Afghanistan.
Abdullah Ghulam Rasoul (Mullah Abdul Qayyum Zakir), who became a formidable force within the Taliban leadership.
The notorious "Taliban Five", exchanged in a deal for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who later held key roles in the Taliban government after their 2021 resurgence in Afghanistan.
Now, as whispers of a massive Al-Qaeda-ISIS-Iran plot loom with over 1,000 operatives reportedly crossing our southern border, the Pentagon deems it appropriate to release these detainees. Among them, Moath Hamza Ahmed al-Alwi and Suhayl Abdul Anam al Sharabi, both alleged former bodyguards of Osama bin Laden. An unclassified 2016 intelligence file on al-Alwi warns of his extremist mindset, suggesting his release could be akin to putting a loaded gun back into the hands of a known killer. Al Sharabi's file links him to an aborted 9/11-style plot, painting a picture of a man who might not have left his jihadist past behind.
The Department of Defense claims these releases were the result of a "thorough, interagency review," but how thorough can this process be when we've seen the likes of Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, an Afghan who entered the U.S. on a supposedly vetted visa, only to allegedly plot an ISIS-style attack?
The detainees are being resettled in Oman, with the Pentagon expressing gratitude for Oman's cooperation in closing Guantanamo. But with 15 detainees still at Guantanamo, including those involved in military commissions or already convicted, this move feels less like a strategic withdrawal and more like a reckless giveaway.
This isn't just about policy; it's about the safety of Americans and allies worldwide. As Biden's administration winds down, this act stands as a testament to what critics see as a pattern of ideological extremism, prioritizing political legacy over national security. From student debt cancellation to drilling bans, and now this—actions that seem designed to leave a mess for the next administration to clean up.
In Biden's last days, with nothing left to lose, the decisions made are not just policy choices; they're a direct affront to the memory of terror victims and an open embrace of those who would see America weakened. This isn't governance; it's sabotage, and the American people are left to pay the price.

I.M.O. The release from GITMO makes them valid targets free and clear because they will perpetrate other jihad violence. Fair game for everyone to "harvest"
