Keep Gitmo Open

Yesterday, al Qaeda took credit for freeing hundreds of jihadists from Iraqi prisons, allowing them to return to their so-called “holy war” against the rest of us.  This mass jail-break makes a mockery of President Obama’s repeated claim that al Qaeda is “on the path to defeat.”

It also comes as his allies on Capitol Hill are hoping today to resuscitate his equally delusional idea of closing the world’s most secure place to imprison such terrorists: Guantanamo Bay.

I have been asked to testify before the Senate to make the case for keeping Gitmo open.  I will explain that doing otherwise will not only turn loose still more jihadis.  They will see it as yet another defeat for America – and that will surely mean more terrorism, and more of it here.
