ON “HUMANITARIAN” GROUNDS
by Sharon Rondeau
(Oct. 31, 2014) — A U.S. Marine was released from prison in Mexico where he had been held since April 1 under harsh conditions at times.
Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi had served two tours of duty in Afghanistan and had been suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). A resident of Florida, he had sought treatment in California and had reportedly crossed over the U.S.-Mexican border inadvertently on March 31.
On October 1, Fox News reported that Tahmooressi’s release was expected “soon.” The Epoch Times had predicted Tahmooressi’s release would come during the second week of October.
The prisoner’s mother, Jill Tahmooressi, tearfully testified to the House Foreign Affairs Committee on October 1 along with several other military veterans, including talk show host Montel Williams. A Mexican psychiatrist recommended that Tahmooressi receive therapy for his PTSD in the United States.
In an editorial in The Los Angeles Times dated August 7, Robin Abcarian wrote, “Like many Americans, I hope the judge lets him come home, where he can get into treatment for his PTSD. By the time the case is resolved, Tahmooressi will have probably spent eight months or so in custody, which seems a heavy price to pay for what is either an honest mistake or very poor judgment.” She further opined, “Since 2008, Congress has appropriated $2.1 billion to help Mexico deepen its commitment to the rule of law. How foolish and hypocritical to demand that Mexico now ignore the very justice system we’ve encouraged it to create.”
Exactly five months ago, a petition at whitehouse.gov demanding Tahmooressi’s release had garnered more than 100,000 signatures, the level at which the Obama regime has pledged it will attend to the issue at hand.
Tahmooressi’s freedom was reportedly planned for by Mexican officials in late August.
Thank you. I couldn’t agree MORE! 100% spot-on.
This was planned to be another decoy to usurpation and the current DNC coup. It is sad that the current Military and other leaders were working so hard to keep THEIR “positions” and not focus on helping this young Marine and get him released. We have never seen theft or destruction in the U.S. at this intensity. This was all planned in the late 50’s by white Marxist and Black Panther radicals based on anti-American theology of Cloward Piven and Saul Alinsky based thinking and planning. Baby Bari Malik Shabazz was the golden child of Malcolm X and Elizabeth Ann Newman from an affair in the Bronx in 1960 just before Malcolm was killed by the Muslim Farrakhan Family. Elizabeth was in a spin off group with Bill Ayers from The Weather Underground, a 60’s radical/bombing group that bombed the Washington Navy Yard Computer Building in 1969. Elizabeth was on the FBI Most Wanted List until recently when Eric Muslim and gun felon Holder had her name taken off the FBI list illegally. Obama is illegal by being a dual citizen from his required Indonesian citizenship as an attending adopted student child there with Jakarta who was good friends with Malcolm X. It is all coming out now, Ayers who is from a wealthy Chicago DNC family, wrote the phony book “Dreams Of My Father” which was another decoy to the real deal. Obama and Michelle have a Serco Arranged Marriage and their children probably came from SOS Children’s Foundation. Obama and Emanuel have been suspected of being lifetime members of “Man’s Country” in Chicago-a gay over 50 men’s club.
