Louie Gohmert: “We have now learned that the administration is releasing or has released Muhammad al-Rahman al- Shamrani, a 40-year-old…”

“We have now learned that the administration is releasing or has released Muhammad al-Rahman al- Shamrani, a 40-year-old citizen of Saudi Arabia. He was transferred to Saudi Arabia on January 11, 2016. Apparently, The New York Times had gotten ahold of documents regarding--and this is from an October 2008 recommendation for the continued detention under the Department of Defense control for Guantanamo detainee, and then it gives the long number--it is Muhammad al-Rahman al-Shamrani. If you read what purports to be secret--I don't know how The New York Times got it--but you read over in his file that this Guantanamo detainee--that would be Mr. Shamrani--on 14 October 2007 stated: ``When I get out of here, I will go to Iraq and Afghanistan and will kill as many Americans as I can. Then I will come here and kill more Americans.'' He also stated: ``I love Osama bin Laden and Mullah Omar, and if I ever get out of Guantanamo, I will go back to fight the Americans and kill as many as I can.'' The detainee stated he hated all Americans and will seek revenge if ever released from Guantanamo. The detainee said that, if he is released, he would again participate in jihad against the enemies of Muslims, to include the United States. The detainee is proud of what he has done, and he is willing to do anything to fight against the enemies of Muslims. The detainee stated he decided to become more religious because of his dislike of the U.S. and its citizens.…”
