Not all of them, but at least a batch of 20 men(up from17) is being considered for release. We just can’t drop them on the streets. No, of course not, probably as we speak one of the top ten volags (federal refugee contractors) is busy finding them a home. But, where? Hat tip: Blulitspecial.
President Barack Obama’s intelligence chief confirmed Thursday that some Guantanamo inmates may be released on US soil and receive assistance to return to society.

“You can’t just put them on the street,” he added. “All that is work in progress.”
