A terrorist who was released from the Guantanamo Bay prison and later blew himself up – along with 12 other people – in Iraq thanked God for his release in a tape made just before the attack, it was reported yesterday.
Abdallah Ali al-Ajmi, was sprung from the facility, which the Obama administration plans to close, in 2005, and sent back to his home country of Kuwait.
“I thank Allah, Lord of the Worlds, who freed me from Guantanamo prison, and, after we were tortured, connected me with the Islamic state of Iraq,” al-Ajmi said on a chilling tape, just before the deadly April attack in Mosul, Fox News’ Web site said.
The murderous fanatic mentions Guantanamo very early in the video, according to the NEFA Foundation, a nonprofit that tracks terrorist groups and translated the tape.
Last week, President Obama signed an executive order to close the prison, but officials must figure out what to do with the more than 250 prisoners still there.
