NEFA Foundation: Al-Qaida Suicide Bomber Assessed by Pentagon as "Aggressive", "Committed Jihadist" Prior to Release from Gitmo

012709_returnedtoterror.JPGThe NEFA Foundation has obtained a copy of the transcript of the 2005 Pentagon Administrative Review Board (ARB) assessment of former Guantanamo Bay detainee Kuwaiti national Abdullah al-Ajmi. According to that document, "Al-Ajmi is committed to jihad… Al-Ajmi wanted to make sure that when the case goes before the Tribunal, they know that he now is a Jihadist, an enemy combatant, and that he will kill as many Americans as he possibly can. Upon arrival at GTMO, Al Ajmi has been constantly in trouble. Al Ajmi's overall behavior has been aggressive and non-compliant, and he has resided in GTMO's disciplinary blocks throughout his detention… Al Ajmi is regarded as a continued threat to the United States and its allies." As reported by the NEFA Foundation, in April 2008—following his inexplicable release from custody in Guantanamo Bay—Abdullah al-Ajmi carried out a suicide bombing on behalf of Al-Qaida in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul.
