Another reminder of how little Obama values the safety and security of Americans.
Obama freed Jihad Ahmed Mustafa Dhiab from Gitmo despite a security evaluation that he posed a high risk to Americans. He was even listed as an associate of September 11 recruiter Muhammad Zammar.
Despite that he was freed and you can guess what happened next.
Law enforcement officials in Uruguay are scrambling after a former Guantanamo Bay detainee seemingly vanished into thin air.
Jihad Ahmed Mustafa Dhiab, a Syrian national who was released from Gitmo to Uruguay in 2014, is believed to have disappeared across the border to Brazil.
It is not known if Dhiab, who was supposed to be under strict surveillance by the Uruguayan government, crossed into Brazil with the appropriate legal documents.
“We are coordinating with officials in Brazil and Uruguay to determine his whereabouts,” an unnamed U.S. official told The Washington Post.
Do you know a good way to have determined Jihad's whereabouts? By keeping him in Gitmo.
In December 2014, Dhiab and five other prisoners of Middle Eastern and North African origin were transferred to Uruguay, as part of a deal between the U.S. and Uruguay to resettle detainees seen as posing little threat.
But, surprisingly, a top terrorist had little interest in being resettled in Uruguay.
