The main thrust of the article is about the detainee review board recommending that someone be released as they were incorrectly classified.

BUT what I found interesting as I read was the following:

Another 200 Guantanamo prisoners have been released through other arrangements; some are freed outright and others are turned over to the custody of their home countries.

Of those, England said, at least 12 are known to have returned to the battlefield.

(England being Navy Secretary Gordon England)

I had not heard nor seen this statement before. I am surprised that this hasn't been splashed all of the news or whether this is the first time this has found its way into public.

This has been in the news for months now. They have recaptured/killed at least a couple Gitmo releasee's

After years of being kept in luxurious plywood boxes and treated with a total lack of dignity they're still mad at us? What's wrong with these people?

They never shoulda left the battlefield in the first place...

Even if this statement is considered harsh, certainly we cannot be expected to give them anything but swift deliverance to Allah for AGAIN attacking our soldiers, right? Right?
