WASHINGTON AP – The future of 241 terror suspects at the Guantanamo Bay military prison dominated a congressional debate on war spending Thursday, as Republicans warned that the Obama administration was preparing to release dangerous killers into American neighborhoods and Democrats accused the Republican of fear-mongering.
“We don’t have any plans to release terrorists,” Attorney General Eric Holder told a Senate hearing where he was grilled about President Barack Obama’s order to shutter the prison by January 2010. “With regard to those who you would describe as terrorists, we would not bring them into this country and release them, anyone we would consider to be a terrorist.”
