Just as many of us have told the naysayers: these guys LIE when they are in GITMO---claiming abuse and that they were threatened. This guy obviously LIED. He lied about his treatment by the U.S. military---he lied about his former affiliation with al Qaeda and the Taliban----and he lied that he was only in Afghanistan in 2001 to "study the Quran." After being released to his home country of Kuwait, they had a trial (not much of one apparently) and he was released back on the streets. He became a homicide bomber in April inside Iraq killing Iraqi policeman and others. And he's not the only one! Let this be a lesson: THESE PEOPLE ARE BAD!!
"Though he was never charged with any crime, al-Ajmi was held at Guantanamo through 2005. Military documents show he later claimed that his statements about fighting for the Taliban were made after he was threatened while in U.S. custody. He asserted that he was in Afghanistan to study the Quran.
Al-Ajmi was transferred to the custody of Kuwaiti authorities in November 2005, with four other Kuwaitis, and was released after a trial there, according to Pentagon officials.
Al-Ajmi is not the first former Guantanamo detainee to reportedly return to the battlefield after being released. Pentagon officials say there are more than 10 people once held by the U.S. at Guantanamo who have been killed or captured in fighting after being released from the detention facility.
"Our reports indicate that a number of former [Guantanamo Bay] detainees have taken part in anti-coalition militant activities after leaving U.S. detention. Some have subsequently been killed in combat," said Cmdr. Jeff Gordon, a Pentagon spokesman.
Documents provided by the Pentagon show other former detainees returning to the battlefield, including Abdullah Mahsud, who was released from Guantanamo in 2004. He returned to Afghanistan, where he became a militant leader in the Mahsud tribe in southern Waziristan, the documents said.
"We have since discovered that he had been associated with the Taliban since his teen years and has been described as an al Qaeda-linked facilitator."
