Sufyan Bin Qumu Held for Six Years in Guantanamo Now Trains Libyan "Freedom Fighters"

In Sufyan's defense, he now says he loves America. And by the way, send us some Stinger missiles:

Rebel recruits in the eastern port city of Derna are being trained by Sufyan Bin Qumu, a Libyan who was arrested following the US-led invasion of Afghanistan in 2001, and held at Guantánamo for six years. Abdel Hakim al-Hasidi, a senior Libyan rebel commander in Derna, was also held following the invasion of Afghanistan and handed over to Libyan custody two months later. Both men were said to have been released from prison in Libya in 2008 as part of a reconciliation process with Islamists in the country.
We fought in Afghanistan with the Taliban to kill Americans but, now we love America. No really, we do.
