[thumb:343:r:l=x] Thanks to Germany Hezbollah has one more fanatic back in its ranks. Â
Mohammed Ali Hamadi was released despite strong U.S. objections, FOX News learned. Those objections were raised in phone calls to German authorities by Attorney General Alberto Gonzales and FBI Director Robert Mueller, as well as by top-level State Department and administration counter-terrorism officials.
Good to know Germany has our back in the war on the terror. Unless of course; an archeologist gets kidnapped and then all deals are off. Germany is low on archeologists; war on terror be damned:
U.S. officials said they “can’t rule out” the possibility that Germany deported Hamadi, after he had served 19 years of a life sentence, in exchange for the release of Susanne Osthoff, a German archeologist taken hostage in Iraq and freed four days after Hamadi’s deportation. German authorities have denied any such deal was made.
Mohammed Ali Hammadi is the Lebonese terrorist who helped hijack TWA Flight 847 and personally beat and bludgeoned Navy diver Robert Stethem with a pistol before murdering him and dropping his body on the runway more than 20 years ago.
With allies like Germany who needs enemies?
