Obama to resume military commissions for Guantanamo detainees
President Obama on Monday ordered trials by military commission to resume at Guantanamo Bay. The move signals another defeat for Obama, who pledged to close the terrorist detention facility in Cuba within one year of taking office.
So much of Obama’s DOJ are ex-defenders of Gitmo detainees that this might be a ploy to get them released into the wild where they can rejoin their old jihad fight.
I’m just dubious that there’s going to be a good outcome from this.
