Apparently Valerie Jarrett got her way on Ali Mussa Daqduq: Terrorist who tortured to death five U.S. servicemen to be set free...

Valerie Jarrett got her way on this one:
Obama's Catch and Release Policy In Action
The atrocities took place in a city called Karbala, south of Baghdad in early 2007. Around a dozen terrorists dressed in U.S. military uniforms opened fire on Americans after approaching a camp in five sports utility vehicles resembling U.S. transports. One U.S. soldier died at the scene and four others were kidnapped, tortured and executed. Daqduq, a Hezbollah commander, was the mastermind. 
But President Obama didn’t want to remove the terrorist from Iraq without permission from the country, in order not to violate its sovereignty. He also refused to take Daqduq to the U.S. Naval base in Guantanamo Cuba, which houses other high-value terrorists, because the facility is an anathema in the Middle East and Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki would not approve the “unacceptable” Guantanamo option. 
So Obama handed Daqduq over to the Iraqis even though several members of congress pointed out that it would be the same as freeing him. Apparently, Iraq pinky promised to hold him accountable for murdering our soldiers. No one, probably not even Obama, really believed that and this week a national newswire story confirmed it.
That Barack Obama would release Ali Mussa Daqduq to the Iraqi Government is insane, given what Daqduq had done.   As predicted, the Iraqi government is releasing Daqduq.   Rep. Allen West  in his letter to President Obama is absolutely correct in calling this an utter betrayal of the United States military.  The Israelis of course hunt and kill terrorists.  Why is this wrong?
