Obama Orders ‘Mass Transfer’ of Gitmo Prisoners Who Openly Threaten to Bomb, Behead Americans


President Barack Obama looks to be continuing his midnight regulations and actions in the wake of the Trump presidency. His latest move looks to remove several detainees from the Guantanamo Bay detention facility in Cuba.

President Obama is planning to transfer at least 18 more Guantanamo Bay detainees within days after announcing that four prisoners are being sent to Saudi Arabia, DailyMail.com has learned.

The group being released will be drawn from those held at Guantanamo – who include an accused senior al Qaeda bomb-maker, the terror group’s top financial manager, and two intended 9/11 hijackers, who have all been held in the Cuba-based U.S. detention facility for more than a decade.

According to a military source briefed on the process, as total of 22 detainees are being prepared for transfer out of the camp, also known as Gitmo, before January 20.

On Thursday afternoon, the Pentagon announced the ‘transfer’ of four detainees to Saudi Arabia – Yemenis Salem Ahmed Hadi, Mohammed Ghanim, Mohammed Bawazir, and Abdullah al Shabli.

A source told DailyMail.com there will be three more sets of transfers before Obama leaves office on January 20.

Although the White House has not specified which inmates will be transferred next – or which foreign countries have agreed to accept them – it has indicated that this will be a priority for Obama in his final days in office.

‘I can’t speak to any individual notifications that have been made to Congress or give you a specific preview about upcoming transfers,’ said White House press secretary Josh Earnest.

Obama really seems to be throwing a dangerous temper tantrum now that Trump is set to succeed him. It’s almost as if he’s setting Trump up to fail — but it’s not like he needed to add to the mess. After eight years of disastrous policy, Trump already has his work cut out for him.
