from Raw Story:
John McCain: Obama released the jihadists responsible for 9/11? to get Sgt. Bergdahl
" . . . I believe we should keep these people because they are hardcore jihadists who are responsible for 9/11, McCain continued. Of course, nobody wants to release people who are responsible for 9/11, and these people that are released that were Taliban governing worked hand-in-glove with al Qaeda.
Retired Air Force Col. Morris Davis, who was the former top prosecutor at Guantanamo Bay, told MSNBC on Saturday that the prisoners released in exchanged for Bergdahl were so inconsequential that he did not even know who they were.
My role as chief prosecutor was to review the information we had on the detainees to determine which ones we could potentially bring war crimes charges against, Davis recalled. When I saw the names of the five individuals, when they were reported last weekend, my first reaction was, Who are they?
I never saw the names before, which means there was not enough information to even make it on our list of potential prosecution, he explained. To trade five of them for a U.S. service member, in my estimation, and Im often critical of President [Barack] Obama, I think they struck a pretty good deal.
