It will most likely be more complicated then that since many potentially innocent people have been imprisoned under much less then favorable conditions for almost ten years. I would not be surprised if some of them tried to get revenge.

This is a no-win situation and I don't see any other realistic option then what Obama is doing now. No other country wants to hold responsibility over them and letting them go freely is extremely dangerous for Obama since if any ex-Gitmo prisoner, innocent or not, is claimed responsible for an American death in the future, Obama is screwed.
