Hillary Clinton: The released Taliban Five are no threat to the USA

Taliban Five, Benghazi Four…What Difference Does It Make?

Is Mrs. Clinton even aware that US troops will still be in Afghanistan when they get to go back?  
"These five guys are not a threat to the United States," says Clinton. "They are a threat to the safety and security of Afghanistan and Pakistan. It's up to those two countries to make the decision once and for all that these are threats to them. So I think we may be kind of missing the bigger picture here. We want to get an American home, whether they fell off the ship because they were drunk or they were pushed or they jumped, we try to rescue everybody."
No one is saying you don't try to get back everyone held Mrs. Clinton (or try to save everyone when they are under attack), which is why it weird the Obama Administration left behind those American civilians the Taliban is also holding. However, nice Lord Jim reference Mrs. Clinton!  

Two of the five were predicted to go back to terrorism

Update:
TOM: Priorities
Instapundit notes: Look what happened when this detainee was released in 2009…what could go wrong?
Catch and Release? Let's do it again: Gabe Malor at AoSHQ links to this: The 9/11 role of one of the Taliban Five…
TOM: If Hillary Clinton can't handle NPR… how can she handle foreign policy?
