On Gitmo you have ░░░░░░░░ recidivism issue and now ░░░░░░░░ we let go that ░░░░░░░░ bay leading Al Qaeda ░░░░░░░░ the Arabian peninsula It ░░░░░░░░ kind of surprising that ░░░░░░░░ administration would say that ░░░░░░░░ don t know that ░░░░░░░░ s reengaged when he ░░░░░░░░ in a video by ░░░░░░░░ Qaeda The most dangerous ░░░░░░░░ of Al Qaeda About ░░░░░░░░ third of the people ░░░░░░░░ from Guantanamo we have ░░░░░░░░ have reengaged Now we ░░░░░░░░ t know how many ░░░░░░░░ don t have evidence ░░░░░░░░ But about a third ░░░░░░░░ reengaged with evidence Here ░░░░░░░░ Josh earnest today on ░░░░░░░░ issue Of Guantanamo bay ░░░░░░░░ report about a former ░░░░░░░░ detainee reengaging in the ░░░░░░░░ would be a source ░░░░░░░░ significant concern and something ░░░░░░░░ would take quite seriously ░░░░░░░░ on what we know ░░░░░░░░ far more than 90 ░░░░░░░░ those who have been ░░░░░░░░ from Guantanamo bay have ░░░░░░░░ reengaged in the fight ░░░░░░░░ we are certainly paying ░░░░░░░░ attention Even if we ░░░░░░░░ unconfirmed reports about those ░░░░░░░░ may have Your reaction ░░░░░░░░ is clearly wrong He ░░░░░░░░ be defining it in ░░░░░░░░ particular timeframe that I ░░░░░░░░ t understand It s ░░░░░░░░ a third if you ░░░░░░░░ over the history of ░░░░░░░░ Secondly there is is ░░░░░░░░ lot of concern by ░░░░░░░░ of Congress that the ░░░░░░░░ five that were traded ░░░░░░░░ Bergdahl may have reengaged ░░░░░░░░ well There s a ░░░░░░░░ here that these are ░░░░░░░░ folks and if you ░░░░░░░░ trying to get them ░░░░░░░░ of Guantanamo at any ░░░░░░░░ you are increasing the ░░░░░░░░ to the country.
