President Obama didn't release the detainees, it was some MP Buck Sergeant at the operations desk that stamped the clearing papers and that 2LT that was in charge of the prisoner transport detail that handed the folks off to the reps from the receiving countries. W hy the former detainees that showed up on the battlefield again only did so because they were stigmatized and couldn't find a nice job upon their return.

Obama promised to close Gitmo. It was a hallmark of his original campaign. Over time he released many. Even as late as January 17, 2017, he released them. Give them time. They will return to write his legacy in blood.

Obama releases 10 more Gitmo prisoners, this time to Oman
Prison camp still still has 45 detainees as Obama leaves office

Inasmuch as @SSgt Ray Stone has blocked me, I can't respond directly. Ultimately, it seems that his chief weapon is disrespect. He disrespects the President, claiming an error is a "lie" and he disrespects me. I doubt if President Trump cares any more than I

CPT Jack Durish To be fair he's right that Trump tweeted another untruth. If detainees that Obama released later go on to fight against us, that still doesn't make the Tweet true.

It's depressing that a man can have access to the nation's entire intelligence apparatus and still tweet at the whim of whatever conspiracy theory has entered his head.
