Afghanistan releases 65 terrorist prisoners, all directly linked to the killing and wounding of 32 American. Obama, Lurch John Kerry and the rest of the Obama hacks begged Hamid Karzai to not release these terrorists. Karzai promptly flips off Obama and Kerry and does it anyway. Remember when they told us the first time Obama got elected that we would be loved and respect all around the world? How’s that working out for ya?
Afghan authorities released 65 prisoners Thursday despite strong objections from the United States, which calls them “dangerous insurgents” who pose a threat to security forces and civilians.
The U.S. military in Afghanistan said the men are “directly linked” to attacks that killed or wounded 32 American or coalition service members and 23 Afghan security personnel or civilians.
“We have made clear our judgment that these individuals should be prosecuted under Afghan law. We requested that the cases be carefully reviewed,” the U.S. military’s statement said. “But the evidence against them was never seriously considered, including by the attorney general, given the short time since the decision was made to transfer these cases to the Afghan legal system.”
