Hill GOP wants answers on Hezbollah leader tied to soldiers killings, set for release

[JBond]

Why does Obama love terrorists? Why does he insist on setting them free to kill more people? never mind...dumb question. Obama is the same asshole that enjoys arming drug cartels. Up is down and down is up. The sky is not blue in an Obama world.

Also, why is Obama giving away secrets to the NYT but hiding the same information he is leaking to the NYT from lawmakers? Obama and his supporters and his minions are the scum of the earth. Those that continue to support Obama have a serious mental disorder.

Republicans on Capitol Hill are furious over the Obama administration’s handling of a purported Hezbollah commander, who was connected to the killing of five U.S. soldiers in 2007 and now is set for release by an Iraqi court.

The most recent GOP lawmaker to express frustration and to demand answers from the administration is Florida Rep. Allen West, who on Wednesday sent a letter to President Obama questioning why Ali Musa Daqduq was turned over to Iraq in December 2011.

West dismissed the argument by Obama officials that they were forced under a Bush administration agreement to release Iraqi citizens upon exiting in December 2011, saying Daqduq was in fact a Lebanon citizen.

“You had options when dealing with this terrorist,” wrote West, a 22-year Army veteran. “When you were elected president, the American people expected you to provide leadership.”

West suggested Daqduq should have been transferred to the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where he could have been tried before a military commission. He also called Daqduq’s release an “utter betrayal” to American soldiers who have died in Afghanistan and Iraq.

U.S. officials think Daqduq, while helping train insurgent groups, plotted and orchestrated the attack in the Iraqi city of Karbala that resulted in the deaths of the soldiers.

West’s letter follows one sent by Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee on May 10 – three days after the Iraq court cleared Daqduq of criminal charges and ordered his release.

The letter to Attorney General Eric Holder and Defense Secretary Leon Panetta suggests the administration waited until Daqduq was in Iraqi custody before filing murder, terrorism and other charges. It also states the administration intentionally kept information from Capitol Hill lawmakers, who learned about the purported charges and Daqduq’s ordered release through New York Times stories.

I don't know much about this, but it does call to mind how Clinton handled the Khobar Towers attack, which saw Hezbollah kill U.S. Marines. He really didn't give much of a shit and liked to cite how 'moderate' the leadership of Iran was at the time.

Every American should be outraged over this. But some won't be.
