MAD DUCK: Oman accepts 10 Gitmo inmates at Obama’s request.

Oman confirmed on Monday morning that it had accepted the 10 inmates upon a request by Obama himself.

“To meet a request by the US government to assist in settling the issue of the detainees at Guantanamo, out of consideration of their humanitarian situation, 10 people released from that prison arrived in the Sultanate of Oman for a temporary residency,” Reuters reported, quoting a statement by the sultanate’s foreign ministry.

The statement did not disclose the names or the nationality of the prisoners.

It doesn’t take much imagination to figure out why not.
