Saudis Give $2,600 Gifts to Guantanamo Jihadis

Consider when reading this story that fifteen of the nineteen 9/11 hijackers were Saudis and that Saudi Arabia is the largest funder of the Global Jihad:

The Saudi Arabian government will temporarily release 55 prisoners recently transferred from the U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba and will give each of them about $2,600 to celebrate the upcoming Muslim holiday of Eid al-Fitr, a newspaper reported Saturday.

Saudi Interior Minister Prince Nayef bin Abdul Aziz granted the temporary releases from detention centers in Saudi Arabia so the prisoners could spend time with their families during the holiday in mid-October, the Okaz newspaper reported.

This is reminiscent of a story IRIS reported on last year:

Saudis Release 11 Detained ex-Guantanamo Inmates

My comments then are worth repeating now:

They served a few months since the US released them to Saudi custody. Now they will resume jihad, of which the Saudis are the world's most ardent proponents.
