Biden Frees Gitmo Terrorist Linked to Chanukah Murder of Israeli Children
He “can quote Mohandas Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King like teenagers quote Taylor Swift.”

Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism.
On Chanukah 2002, four Hercules planes bearing hundreds of people evacuated from Africa landed in Israel. The passengers included Israeli families who had been vacationing in Kenya, some alive, some wounded, and some children returning to their homeland in small coffins.
Now, Biden has decided to release Mohammed Abdul Malik Bajabu, an Islamic terrorist who, “participated in the planning and execution of the terrorist attacks”, from Guantanamo Bay..
2002 had been a bad year in Israel. 457 Israelis were murdered by terrorists in one of the worst years of the Islamic campaign of genocide against the country’s indigenous Jewish population. By the time fall came around, families in a terrorized nation were looking to get away from a year of suicide bombings, shootings, and brutal atrocities. Families, many working class, scrimped and saved to be able to afford a Chanukah trip somewhere safe out of the country.
On the eve of Chanukah, a group of Israeli tourists had just arrived at the Paradise Hotel in
Mombasa, while another group was flying back to Israel.
The Islamic terrorists timed their attack precisely: two missiles lifted off targeting the Israeli plane with 271 passengers and crew on board. The aircraft momentarily trembled, but few of the passengers noticed that anything had gone wrong. The missile damaged the plane’s tail, but the aircraft was able to continue flying on and landed safely with all of its passengers in Tel Aviv.
The Israeli captain thought that a bird had hit the plane.
The terrorist attack at the Paradise Hotel proved more succesful. The booby trapped SUV smashed past a barrier to get through to the hotel. One of the terrorists wearing a bomb vest ran out shouting, “Allahu Akbar”, and blew up, and the driver smashed the vehicle into the hotel, while the remaining terrorist detonated the bomb inside filling the entrance with shrapnel.
A surviving video shows a final moment of a Paradise Hotel employee telling the Israelis, “Welcome to Africa”.
Two decades ago, Ayelet, then 15 years old, saw the carnage firsthand. "Everything was burning. I thought my sisters were inside the fire," she told reporters.
When I contacted Ayelet today, she was shocked to learn that Bajabu would be released.
“Thank God, my family and I got back home safely from Mombasa, but I am sure that those who have lost their beloved children, parents or partners won't be able to understand how come this kind of person is getting free.”
“I would like to see justice done,” Ayelet told me.
Few in America or Israel understand the manic obsession with which the Obama and Biden administrations have pursued the release of some of the worst Islamic terrorists on the planet. Some advocates have even tried to use false accusations of racism to justify their crusade.
Lee Wolosky, Obama's point man for freeing Gitmo terrorists, recently argued, “If these detainees had been white and not brown or black, is there any realistic chance the United States… would imprison them without charge for decades?”
And yet the victims of the terrorists whom Obama and Biden have worked so hard to set loose were “brown or black”, Africans and Middle Eastern Jews, often poor or working class.
Albert de Havila, the tour guide leading the trip, a Jewish immigrant from Morocco, had been struggling financially. The trip was his opportunity to turn things around. He was killed where he stood in the lobby, his daughter, who later moved to America, was not injured.
Upstairs, the Anter family, who also originated from the Muslim world, was just getting settled. Rahamim Anter, who worked in a rope factory, had carefully saved money to take his three children somewhere safe to enjoy Chanukah after a year of murderous Islamic terrorism.
A week earlier, the family had celebrated Noy Anter’s 12th birthday. The trip had been a surprise from their parents for Noy, his fourteen year old brother Dvir, and their 8-year-old little sister.
Ora Anter, their mother, wanted to get some refreshments downstairs. The two boys joined her.
Noy had been excited to take his first trip out of the small country he had lived in all his life.
It was his final trip.
The Islamic terrorist attack killed Noy and his brother Dvir, described as a smart and shy boy, and left their mother Ora hooked up to a respirator.
"Suddenly there was an explosion. I jumped up and saw fire through the window. I ran outside and looked everywhere for them, trying with all my might to save them," Rahamim described.
Mercy Neema Mwagambo, the hotel’s receptionist, was seeing to the guests when the bomb went off. Covered in burns, she crawled to the swimming pool and jumped in. The Israelis flew her and her mother, along with other wounded staff, out to a Jerusalem hospital.
Other hotel employees who were closer to the blast were not so lucky. Ten of them were killed.
“It was a giant explosion. I saw a lot of people injured, covered with blood,” one woman said.
Seven years later, a few days after the latest 9/11 anniversary, Operation Celestial Balance took out Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan, Al Qaeda's Somalia boss, and the FBI’s third most wanted terrorist.
After helicopters shot up the convoy, Seal Team Six went in and confirmed that Nabhan was dead. The Somali Al Qaeda leader had been linked to some of Al Qaeda's earliest operations against America, the bombing of the American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, as well as the Paradise Hotel attack. The operation would later be seen as prep for getting Bin Laden.
A few years earlier, the Kenyans had already captured Mohammed Abdul Malik Bajabu and turned him over to the United States. And from there he was sent on to Gitmo.
According to Bajabu’s lawyer, he is a peace-loving man who “can quote Mohandas Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King like teenagers quote Taylor Swift.”
That raises the question of which hotel full of Jews Martin Luther King have bombed.
A Gitmo terror threat assessment noted that Bajabu "admitted that he participated in the planning and execution of the terrorist attacks in Mombasa, which included the bombing-of the Israeli-owned Kikambala Paradise Hotel and a missile attack on an Israeli airliner."
The peace-loving Bajabu who can’t stop quoting Gandhi was also allegedly “involved in a plot to attack the Kenyan Anti-Terrorism Headquarters located in Nairobi, and the Mombasa Marathon,with the intent of killing Americans and Israelis.”
Other terrorists said that they “discussed future operations at detainee's home, to include potential attacks on US and Israeli Embassies”.
While no copies of Gandhi or MLK speeches were found at Bajabu’s home, the assessment noted that he “stored rockets, anti-aircraft missiles, explosives, and mines at his residence”.
After abortive discussions during the Obama administration about turning over Bajabu to the Israelis to face justice for the Chanukah massacre, the Biden administration is setting him free.
Bajabu’s lawyer claims that the terrorist has a “a large and loving family” in Somalia.
After the attack, Rahamim Anter called his brother, shouting, “I have no children. Noy and Dvir have gone.”
The pro-terrorist leftist lawfare groups, like Human Rights Watch, that labored to help the terrorists are celebrating Bajabu’s release. There are no celebrations in Kenya or Israel.
The Paradise Hotel terrorist attack has left deep scars in both nations. Thirteen people, most of them Kenyans, were killed in the Paradise Hotel attack. Many others, including a number of other Israeli teenagers and children, were wounded. Some still live with the trauma to this day.
"I think these kinds of people should stay behind bars, not just for what they did, but for their intentions as well,” Ayelet told me. “I think that a long time won't pass before he will do something like that again, the minute he will have the chance.”
Last year we learned that 229 former Gitmo detainees had returned to terrorism. And yet last month, Biden complained that the defense spending bill prevented him from closing Gitmo.
Bajabu is one of five Islamic terrorists freed by Biden from Guatanamo Bay. The radical administration is determined to free as many of the enemy as possible to kill again.
"Today's decision is wonderful news,” the terrorist’s lawyer declared, and claimed that his client “longs to be reunited with his family.”
That is a privilege forever denied to the families of his victims.
Biden has relentlessly exploited the death of his son for political gain, but he has shown no empathy for the losses and suffering of the children killed by the terrorists he is protecting, whether in the Palestinian Authority, in Hamas, or even in our custody in Guantanamo Bay.
Rahamim Anter said that he had taken his family on vacation, "to look for calm far from the intifada to take the children on safari, but I brought back their little bodies to put them in the ground".
When Biden addressed the anti-Israel J Street lobby group, he closed with a poem by Seamus Heaney, "History says, Don’t hope, On this side of the grave, But then, once in a lifetime, The longed-for tidal wave, Of justice can rise up."
Whatever justice comes to the Islamic terrorists of Gitmo and to their victims whose coffins rode those four planes on a Chanukah two decades past, it will not come on this side of the grave.
Or at least not if Biden and his pro-terrorist administration have anything to say about it.
After the attack, the Israeli Defense Minister had vowed that the "killers of children" would face a reckoning. "Our hand will reach them.”
Biden, his radical regime, the multitude of lawyers who lobbied for the terrorists, hoped to help Bajabu, but they may have instead ensured that he faces justice on “this side of the grave.”
The Biden regime appears to favor Jew-hating terrorists.
Just as the Democrats are Constitution-hating terrorists.
Matthew 7:16 “Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?”
Biden and Obama are terrorists too, and as such will have the same fate.
God, if only.
Baldy Buzzard Biden will die soon shitting his pants and not knowing his own name (he's already like that half the time) but Brokeback Hasbeen will go on publishing fake biographies nobody reads and spending other people's money into his old age. Neither will get what they deserve.
Well said, Errol. Biden's 'fruit' and that of his entire administration is rotten to the core. Their release of Islamic terrorist murderers speaks volumes about their rotten character, but, sadly, also about the nation that either - as in the case of Obama - elected them, or endures them despite the multitudinous evidence of skullduggery. That the SCOTUS would not investigate possible rigging of a presidential election is testament to the depth that this court and matters generally have sunk in the U.S.
Biden is actively appeasing Islamic terror backed by Iran and throwing Israel under the bus because Biden views any deal with Iran as a source of oil imports. Allowing the US to become energy self sufficient runs contra to the false dogma of climate change.
Thanks Daniel.
Monica Lewis is a scam artist liar..... trying to scam people our of their money on here
She is scum like all democrats.
Micah Micah is a scam artist liar..... trying to scam people our of their money on here
Mr Greenfield, Since we all know that Biden doesn't really make any decisions, then who is the person(s) actually making the call to release these psychos?
Here's a clue:
"As I have explained in "The DIM Hypothesis", Obama is in essence a destroyer for the sake of destruction, a nihilist, the first such to become President. The object to be destroyed is America. Given the academic and popular support he has received, he has been able to pursue this goal methodically and, to many observers, with astonishing success." - Leonard Peikoff
They need cell space for us conservatives.
Justice delayed is justice denied, someday Bajabu will receive a just payment for being a murderer. Someday Joe Biden will also face judgment with Mullah Obama for their fellowship with the enemies of life. The war of good vs. evil continues and we know who is not on the good side.
Bless you for your courage to state the truth. If only we had millions more like you.
Such despicable, feckless, morally bankrupt and indefensible dhimmitude predictably displayed by dotard Xi-den and the Dhimmi-crats. The Dhimmi-crats' conscious and willful complicity with, enabling of, and, whitewashing/rationalizing/excusing of Islamic supremacism, totalitarianism, belligerence and violence against Jews, Christians, Hindus and other non-Muslims represent collaboration in the worst way and is pure evil. Call these policies and attitudes what they plainly are -- pure evil.
The devil can quote scriptures. He probably only quotes them to support some self-serving, devious purpose. Does he also quote the Bible? Or any of the scriptures of other religions that include the Golden Rule in some form? Probably only to subvert them. Biden and the left like Islamist jihadis, because they think that Western traditions and beliefs stand in the way of leftist totalitarians, and the Islamists also hate these traditions. Especially they hate the teachings of Jesus, which is why they continually try to destroy Christian and Jewish or Hindu societies to impose Sharia. Joe will probably do everything to help jihadis and hurt Israelis. What would he do if his family were the victims of a jih ad terror attack? Would he be so gung ho about releasing the terrorists? He thinks that can only happen to other people, who do not deserve all his privileges and ill-begotten gains.
Biden probably isn't even aware of this Muslim animal's release. You're assuming that Biden actually makes such decisions. Still, I doubt that he would care about what an obscene act this was even if apprised of it by his handlers and minders actually in control.
Alzheimer Joe isn't aware of what he was fed for breakfast but he's always ready to lie about anything and gloat about any anti American policy his handlers impose on us. He's a piece of shit and always has been. Alzheimer's is too good for him. He should feel that he's dying but he won't.
Yeah, let's hope the Mossad pulls an Adolph Eichmann operation on this piece of slime.*
*There's a good movie about that entitled "Operation Finale." Oscar Isaac and Ben Kingsley. Good stuff.
This case is a good example of why they probably can't be rehabilitated. Maybe some rare cases can, but for the most part their viewpoints are hardwired into their brains. The idea of rehabilitation was from an earlier prescientific age. But it does provide jobs and careers for social workers, and gives grifters a chance to con their way out of trouble.
Not surprised.
He should have been made into a good muslim. The only good muslim is a dead muslim!!!!!!
Dead or dying. I'm fine with either one.
This Obama-Biden presidency is quite a team. Throw Soros monies and the Clintons' advice clueing Kamala in on "the plan". Sadly, it seems the Republicans never have a plan but are always doing defense against these evil people.
That fool or sinisterly evil decision of Joe Biden to free that vicious ,violent and murderous jihadist ,Mohammed Abdul Bajabu is a choice that sooner of latter will result the murder of many innocent people and their blood will then be on the wicked ,vile hands of Biden.
No about of counseling or therapy sessions by even the best psychologists will cause a genuine change in Abdul Bajabu to turn him into a peaceful man. Bajabu might fake being changed in this scheme of Islamic deception to because released from Gitmo to then further return to the bloody and deadly jihad of Islam.
This because he and other jihadists like him have been so thoroughly indoctrinated, as in brainwashed and mind programed into Qu ‘ran based way of the violence and killing for Islam, Surah 2:191, 4:89. 5:33. 9:5, 111,112, 123. 474 that he can’t be helped or straightened out to become a non- violent peaceful man.
As the ancient Greek playwright and poet, Aristophanes, wrote “Even the wisest of the wise can never make a crab walk straight.”
Likewise much later in time the German philosopher Immanuel Kant had, wisely, “ Out of the crooked timber of humanity no straight thing can ever be made.”
If this released terrorist ever shows his face anywhere near Israel, the Israelis will what to do .
The perfidy of this National Democratic Party exceeds one's imagination. Biden, the stooge fronting for Obama's little cohort that tells him what to do, can only share in the perfidy, although he is not without a huge share of his own. Whenever he steps free from his handlers and speaks for himself, which is often, he shows himself to be a perfect Hitler-like Nazi. Our spineless GOP is hardly better. While the National Democratic Party steams steadily on toward its One-Party Dictatorship goal few in the GOP resist and many are committed to the Stakeholder dictatorship model of Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum. I see nothing to be optimistic about other than a home-grown genuine American insurgency by local militias.
May #TalibanBiden rot in h-ll when he leaves the Earth.🤬🤬
Well, they need leaders to train terrorists for all the free weapons Biden left behind.
A South Africa, I once, with reservations, admired the U.S., but no longer. That a low-life, devoid of wisdom, Islamic terrorist-sympathetic individual like Joe Biden can, even if by fraudulent means, become president of the United States, tells us how corrupt and low the country has sunk - and that the roots of this descent run long and deep, facilitated by, among others, the foolish Jimmy Carter and disgraceful liar and deceiver, Islam-supporting Barack Obama who nevertheless the American people to their everlasting shame twice elected their president.
I don't believe it is extreme to say that none of Joe Biden's actions demonstrate even the slightest suggestion of elevated instinct or merit, instead criminal instincts that are never-ending and daily evident in his and his administration's actions. His and his son's crooked links with the Ukraine speak volumes, yet with U.S. justice departments the antithesis of justice pursuit, they escape investigation. Joe Biden is a liar, slanderer and pathetic buffoon who is surrounded by evil and not particularly intelligent people, Kamala Harris, Anthony Blinken, Wendy Sherman, Lloyd Austin, Mark Milley just a few examples, and these supported by astounding stupid, 'woke'-infused, Critical Race Theory-promoting generals, characterless men who head the United States Marines, army, navy and air force. Then there are a host of other nondescripts like Jen Psaki, liars all, whose 'word', like that of Biden is not their 'bond', none of whom can be believed. Security Agencies like the FBI have sunk to an all-time low, hunting down and incriminating innocent Americans while both ignoring and releasing criminals with the favoured political connection. Increasingly with its witch hunts of conservatives the U.S. resembles Soviet Russia, the FBI simply another KGB, the Supreme Court of the United States now a shadow of its former self, justice not in the slightest the primary focus of these bodies. With such leadership we can with absolute certainty be assured that the United States is headed not simply for failure but disaster. Over this there is nothing to gloat because if living in a Western country we, too, will suffer the consequences. Biden claims to be Catholic, by inference he believes in God, but his 'fruit' - his conduct and actions - are rotten and tell us otherwise. God will not be mocked. Biden is no servant of God Almighty, so like Britain and nations of Europe that turned their back on Him there will be consequences. God's wrath will not simply be upon Joe Biden, it will be also be the nation that decided to reject Him and accept as its leader a foul man.

So Bajabu can quote Ghandi and MLK. I'm sure he can quote the Koran too.
More than quote it, the knuckle-dragger lives it.
