I'd heard rumors about this, but dismissed them out of hand. There was no way that even the Obamanites would consider releasing the 1993 World Trade Center bombers' leader, especially as some kind of "goodwill gesture" toward the Muslim Brotherhood who just finished attacking our embassies.
No way. The world would have to be completely insane.
But I reckoned without the liberal fanatics currently in the White House, Senate etc., and those carrying water for them in the press. What normal, sane people would never do, these people would do easily.
Stunning. HAS the world gone completely insane?
All I can say is, Is it November yet?

The Obama administration is weighing the release of blind Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman — the spiritual adviser to the 1993 World Trade Center bombers — in a stunning goodwill gesture toward Egypt that has touched off a political firestorm, officials said yesterday.
The Egyptian government “asked for his release,” an administration source told The Post — and Rep. Peter King (R-LI) confirmed the request is being considered.
The White House, State Department and Justice Department each issued statements denying any deal is in the works, but, “There’s no way to believe anything they say,” said Andrew McCarthy, the former assistant US attorney who prosecuted Abdel-Rahman. “I believe there may already be a nod-and-wink agreement in place.”
He remains revered in his native Egypt, and his supporters have demonstrated throughout Cairo for his freedom.
Newly elected Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi, a member of the radical Muslim Brotherhood, has publicly vowed to press the United States to turn over the sightless sheik.
His incarceration was the subject of Arabic-language message-board rants two days before protesters stormed the US Embassy in Cairo and later killed the American ambassador to Libya, Christopher Stevens, according to a Department of Homeland Security report obtained by Fox News.
They wrote he should be released, “even if it requires burning the embassy down with everyone in it.”
No way. The world would have to be completely insane.
