Of course, this is how the Obama Administration thinks that it can do away with the need for the off-shore prison. 80 detainees remain in the facility, most haven&#8217;t been charged, but then do they really need to be charged? How many German POWs held in camps around the US had been charged?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The transfer, which took place just days before President Barack Obama&#8217;s visit to Saudi Arabia for a summit of Gulf Arab allies, marked the latest step in his final push to close the controversial detention center at the U.S. naval base in Cuba before he leaves office in January 2017.<\/p>\n<p>The Saudis agreed, after lengthy negotiations that at one point involved Obama and Saudi King Salman, to take the nine Yemenis for resettlement and put them through a government-run rehabilitation program that seeks to reintegrate militants into society, the officials said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Republicans claim that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.politifact.com\/truth-o-meter\/statements\/2015\/jan\/15\/john-mccain\/mccain-30-past-guantanamo-detainees-re-enter-fight\/\">30% of Guantanamo detainees<\/a> released back into the wild are recidivists who return to their terrorist ways. Supporters of the Obama Administration dispute those numbers, but the last report was in 2014. Of the 620 detainees who were released, 184 either returned to the terrorists&#8217; fold or are suspected to have returned.<\/p>\n<p>At least these guys are Saudi Arabia&#8217;s problem for the time being.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reuters reports that nine Yemenis have been moved from the Guantanamo detainee center to one in &hellip; <a title=\"Nine Yemenis graduate from Guantanamo University\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=65303\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Nine Yemenis graduate from Guantanamo University<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-65303","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-terror-war"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65303","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=65303"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65303\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=65303"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=65303"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=65303"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
