                the risk that the 5 detainees transferred from United 
                States Naval Station, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to Qatar on

                in terrorist activity after transfer as described in 
                that subparagraph, including the reasons for such

                of the 5 detainees as described in subparagraph (A) 
                will increase the likelihood that the Taliban and 
                terrorist groups around the world will try to capture
