The Hill: Reports that the Obama Administration will not transfer Guantanamo Bay Detainees to Saudi Arabia in the future. The problem faced by the Obama Administration is that it cant risk any more Gitmo prisoners returning to the terrorist fight, if they release more prisoners and there is a terrorists attack the Obama Administration is over in political terms. Its an aspect of American politics that Democrats are seen as weak by the American voter, if the terrorists think that Obama is weak they will start to move the War on Terror from Afghanistan and Iraq to the United States. Thus Obama is in a tricky position, he has give the US Foreign Policy a new face for the World after Bush 43 in the eyes of Democrats but it cant be seen as weak, that can be tricky thing to manage. Thus still holding to my prediction that Obama will either lose his bid for re-election in 2012 or not run at all, he will want to spend more time with his family.
