Al-Qaida: We will try to free Guantanamo inmates

[I AM NOT THAT GUY 5,715]

AGHDAD (AP) — Al-Qaida's leader says a prisoners' hunger strike in Guantanamo Bay has revealed the "odious" face of America and claims that the terror network will spare no effort to free prisoners held at the US military-run detention center in Cuba.

Ayman Al-Zawahri spoke in a 22-minute audio message posted on the Internet on Wednesday.

"The strike by our brothers in Guantanamo reveals the real odious and ugly face of America. We pledge God that we will spare no efforts to set them free," he said

Some of the 166 prisoners at Guantanamo began a hunger strike earlier this year to protest conditions and their indefinite confinement.

The message's authenticity could not be independently confirmed but the message was posted on a militant website commonly used by al-Qaida.

A terror attack on Gitmo would provide the perfect pretext for a larger invasion of Cuba. Unfinished business.

Gitmo serves a purpose. No point in getting rid of it to please a bunch of bed wetting liberals.

[Mr. Big Dog 10,747]

Gitmo serves a purpose.

What purpose does it serve?

[mota bhai 2,675]

What purpose does it serve?

Are you unaware of what we're using Gitmo for?

Or are you simply being obtuse?

I know we use it to hold people that we can't bring any actual charges against. That may be a purpose but is it a valid purpose?

Why would we want to continue that? What actual benefit does the US get from that facility? I can't see any.

Yes, it is a valid purpose. Don't be such a bed wetting liberal.

America's sense of fair play won't allow it to put a bullet in the back of the head of someone that would have no problem doing the same to any American.

If we become like them, they win.

[mota bhai 2,675]

If we become like them, they win.

Actually, if we outlive them, we win.

[I AM NOT THAT GUY 5,715]

If we become like them, they win.

How do they win if we exterminate them all? What a silly thing to say.
