Obama Delegate was charged with Espionage

Being there, I and many other Patriotic Americans did witness first hand much of the abuse at Guantanamo Bay. I've documented that in For God And Country, Faith and Patriotism Under Fire. Maj. Gen.Geoffrey Miller's excuse that were "national security concerns that would arise from the release of the evidence" in the case is about as bogus as it can get to let a "terrorist spy" go free. It's quite clear everyone that I was completely innocent of those ridiculous accusations, but the Joint Task Force Guantanamo Command wanted to conceal the gross incidents of abuse that have now been publicly exposed. Again, I left the military with an Honorable Discharge, in addition to a second U.S. Army Commendation medal for "exceptional meritorious service" - and Maj. Gen. Miller has been the only senior officer from Guantanamo recommended by U.S. Southern Command for disciplinary action stemming from prisoner abuse at Gitmo. He was retired instead. Senator McCain (and Gov Huckabee) both have said they think Guantanamo should be closed, Senators Obama and Clinton as well.

Wow, can Obama pick 'em or what? Is there anyone in his inner circle that does NOT hate America?

LGF is good on the WOT, but don't look for anything but disgust for the community of faith over there.

Setting aside the suspicions of treason and his personal views, according to Wikipedia[1] Yee was NOT an inmate of Guantanamo. He was an interrogator assigned there, and when he was arrested in Florida on suspicions of espionage he was transferred to a brig in South Carolina.

It that is in fact the case (and all other writings I can find online support that statement) please do not perpetuate the falsehood, it only makes the rest of the argument appear to be similarly false. Thanks...

Jeff, I am a person of faith, and have thick skin.

LGF is a fine place.

I do find it interesting, Mr Yee happened to be funded by Saudi Arabia for his pilgrimage, (IIRC, after the first Gulf War, we were not allowed to accept any monetary compensation from them) furthermore, the GSISS and the AMF might find similar funding, and if I recall, might also be the subject of an ongoing investigation.

Another interesting connection with respect to the AMF would be their founding.

A name that eludes me.

Perhaps someone would like to remind my of who this was?

Formercorpsman, I guess "don't cast your pearls before swine, and bad company corrupts good morals" doesn't apply to you then.

hey "Jeff"! how do you explain this post, http://littlegreenfootballs.com/showc/358/5319707 , in light of your comment above?

Amazing! None of you have the fortitude to respond to the comments above that handily rebut this article? Republicans have become desperate indeed to try creating their witches' brew of fear and unsupported innuendo from this thin soup. Go ahead, change the subject again. The fact that Yee was exonerated and received another medal, and the only official referant you have on the subject was disciplined and retired, this makes a pretty solid case that this article is trash-talk, like an Ahmenijad (sp?) speech about Israel. Complete bull, firing up the brainwashed with keywords. Y'all are impaled in the classic fork and your king is in as weak a position as positions get. Suck it up.

re: "Jay like Birds"

Sorry, but that is a pathetically childish rant. And for the record, I for one was specifically not rebutting the article but only pointing out a common misconception easily assumed from reading popular media reports. They specifically make it look like he was held in Gitmo by leaving out facts.

BTW, I am also very faith-oriented person and have been an LGF lizard for years now. Piss off Jay.

You're quoting the Little Green Footballs blog?!! That blog is a complete propaganda rag. Just try to verify the supposed sources he quotes or non-existent web links. You can't. Nor can you register on the website to complain. This is just a smear.
