US offers $5M reward for al Qaeda leader released from Gitmo
The Obama administration is scrambling to track down an al Qaeda terrorist released from Guantanamo Bay years ago, offering a $5 million reward for information on him and placing him on a global terrorist list.
Ibrahim al-Rubaysh was originally released in 2006 by the George W. Bush administration and put into a Saudi Arabian “rehabilitation” program. However, al-Rubaysh returned to the battlefield and now serves as a top leader with al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula — one of the most dangerous al Qaeda affiliates.
