Gallup Polls on Thomson

Americans Oppose Closing Gitmo, Moving Prisoners to U.S.
Support is 8% among Republicans, 28% among independents, and 50% among Democrats — PRINCETON, NJ — Americans remain opposed to closing the Guantanamo Bay prison in Cuba and moving some of the terrorist suspects being held there to U.S. prisons …
NY Times columnist worries about the virtual jihad. Comment RCP Blog, Jawa Report.

And I'll include the UPDATE to my previous blogpost, Terrorists as Tourists?:
In response to the Trib editorial. As much a concern as inside the prison (and those being given early release--see ACLU and their ilk)...is outside. Terrorists go after soft targets, you know, like schools, cafes, open air markets. That's why they're called...wait for it...terrorists. And why so many civilians get hurt because terrorists target civilians and hide behind them. Some countries understand this. Perhaps that's why they don't want to accept their own countrymen terrorists back to serve time there.

So why would we deliberately introduce these high-risk brutal people into our country? When we have a perfectly good prison on an island off our shores.
It's called Gitmo. Leave them there.

More. Let's not forget this: Reuel Marc Gerecht, WSJ:Major Hasan and Holy War. A domestic Islamic threat is real, and the FBI is unprepared to fight it.

HT Memeorandum.

P.S. And how about this news? Mystery as Lockerbie bomber goes missing from home and hospital
