In what has to be one of the most infuriating stories thus far into the infancy of the Obama presidency, this one tops them all. According to the AP, the last active war crimes case against suspected al-Qaida bomber Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri ended when all of the charges were dropped in order to comply with Obama's executive order that all trials at Guantanamo be stopped. Al-Nashiri was a suspect in the 2000 bombing of the USS Cole that killed 17 U.S. Sailors and will remain in prison apparently awaiting whether or not the United States will charge him again with any further crimes.
This is a slap in the face to all those who serve, especially the 17 who gave their all on that fateful day in 2000. The implications of such a move by Obama will reach far beyond our shores and only embolden our enemies. He catered to the far left of the democrat party and now a terrorist sits awaiting his outcome. Will we nail this piece of human garbage if the evidence is available or will we let him walk? President Obama, this is in your hands.
