John Brennan Needs To Leave

The Dear Leader, President Obama's counter-terrorism chief, John Brennan, gave the American people a glimpse as to the fundamental problem this administration has in fighting the War Against Islamofacsist Terror.
In a Q & A this past weekend at the Islamic Center of New York University, Mr. Brennan gave this answer in response to a question:

"People sometimes use that figure, 20 percent, say 'Oh my goodness, one out of five detainees returned to some type of extremist activity,'" Brennan said. "You know, the American penal system, the recidivism rate is up to something about 50 percent or so, as far as return to crime. Twenty percent isn't that bad."
Brennan added, "Many of these detainees have returned, have engaged not just extremism, but terrorist attacks. It is something that we have to look at very carefully."

All righty then.
According to Mr. Brennan, the possibility of a future terrorist attack from one of these released detainees is one in twenty. I suppose that is not a bad thing.
Except for two things.
One, the Dear Leader, President Obama's administration continues to make this not a war against those that make clear they want to kill us and change our way of life. No, they want this to be nothing more than another cog in the wheel of an already overloaded civilian legal system. A system that is not equipped to handle the kind of acts those trying to kill us can and will commit. Unlike many in the United States, the terrorists are committed to carrying out their acts. Keep in mind that many of these terrorists are still thinking in terms of the Crusades. The same Crusades that occurred over a milenia ago. To many of these terrorists, the Crusades might as well have happened yesterday. The hatred these Islamofacsists have is deep. And, it will never go away even if Israel was wiped off the map tomorrow.
Secondly, Mr. Brennan, this is the one flaw to the 20% theory.
The terrorists need only one time to commit an unspeakable act of terror. Say one of these let out and return to battle come to the United States. With a suitcase nuclear weapon. And said terrorist is successful in detonating it in, oh I do not know. Washington, D. C? How about New York City? Or somewhere off the radar. Like Fargo, N. D.? Somewhere no one in counter-terrorism would think.
It is what makes Mr. Brennan's latter remarks, about those that do return to the battlefield so mind-blowing.
Mr. Brennan is conceding way too much to the terrorists. Plain and simple.
If this is supposed to be a counter-terrorism strategy, it is an abject failure.
And to be blunt, these people should have never been let out in the first place. But, a tired Bush administration caved in and started releasing many of these detainees. The Bush administration bought into a stupid theory that some of these detainees could be "rehabilitated" in Saudi Arabia, of all places.
But, I absolutely believe that Mr. Brennan speaks for the Dear Leader, President Obama.
And that is why he will still have a job tomorrow. And the next day. Mr. Brennan has a job until he realizes that he needs to leave.
Unless, God forbid, something happens on a catastrophic scale, the Dear Leader, President Obama, and his minions in their view of "counter-terrorism" will continue to peddle the law-enforcement angle.
And pursuing a law-enforcement angle diminishes fighting the real war. Until we are attacked once again.
