Abdullah Saleh al-Ajmi Was Such a Nice Boy In Guantanamo
ABDULLAH Saleh al-Ajmi was arrested by the US forces and accused of fighting with the Taliban.
He went to the U.S. naval base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, while the law worked out if he was an ”enemy combatant.”
Al-Ajmi denied all charges that he was an enemy combatant and a jihadist.
He was repatriated to Kuwaiti authorities on Nov. 3, 2005.
Last week, a Dubai-based television channel reported that al-Ajmi was killed carrying out a homicide bombing in Mosul, Iraq.
A friend of Abdullah Saleh al-Ajmi in Iraq, one Salem al-Ajmi, says: “We were shocked by the painful news we received this afternoon … through a call from one of the friend’s of martyr Abdullah in Iraq.”
Who could have predicted it, eh?

Yes, who could have predicted that an individual held for 2300 days on suspictions and dodgy intel would retaliate against those affiliated with his captors…

To Marko:
1) He didn’t retaliate against his captors. He attacked Iraqis instead.
2) If he was willing to go martyr, then its unlikely that resentment over his time in Guantanamo was enough to do it. There are thousands of ways he could have retaliated against the US without killing himself. He obviously had his heart set on jihad for a very long time, so obviously the intel wasn’t so “dodgy” was it?
