Freed Victims of Bush's Gulag Arrested in Russia for Terrorism
I wonder how the five released Gitmo prisoners will find conditions in a
real Russian gulag? Do you think their will be a massive outcry from the Left and the European elite?
Via ITB this from Mosnews:
Two former Guantanamo prisoners, extradited to Russia in 2002, have been detained in Moscow on suspicion of preparing a series of terrorist attacks, the Vremya Novostei newspaper reported Tuesday.
The two Russian citizens, Airat Vakhitov and Rustam Akhmyarov, who were seized in a counter-terrorist operation in Afghanistan and kept at the Guantanamo base in Cuba with other Taliban and terrorist suspects, and then extradited home to Russia, have been detained and are now being held in a Russian detention centre.
They are charged with preparing and carrying out a series of terrorist acts in the Central Russian Povolzhye region.
Three other former Guantanamo prisoners have been detained in RussiaÂ’s Tatarstan Republic on the same charges, the paper adds.
All in all, of the seven Russian Guantanamo prisoners extradited from Cuba in 2004, only two are not in custody.
Five of Seven? If anything, it looks like the Bush policy of releasing prisoners is a failed one. More Gitmos please!

Can never have enough Gitmo. Seriously though, I hope they enjoy their stay in the Russian prisons.
They were lucky to have gotten to stay at Gitmo.

Outcry? Hell no. You see, the way it was explained to me is that there is just no sense talking about the areas/countries which cannot be controlled, so if there is ire to be had the only way to make it effective is to point it at someone who gives a shit, like us. Dictators the world round must love that plan. I think its cowardly crap.

They probably wanted to blow up another school and kill some more innocent kids or just bring down some adults in an airplane.
Good thing we have the ACLU pushing to get these poor victims out of Gitmo. What a great organization, always looking to make the world a better place.
The Russians will know how to handle these guys, they donÂ’t pee on the Koran, they pee on the pork sausage gruel they serve them for lunch

Call me sick, but I hope they've already been violated by Ivan and Igor. Maybe they'll get a taste of what it's like to be a Muslim wife. :-0
