EXCLUSIVE: Bergdahl declared jihad in 2010, secret documents show
Fox News ^ | 6/5/14 | James Rosen

Posted on 06/05/2014 2:07:07 PM PDT by abb

U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl at one point during his captivity converted to Islam, fraternized openly with his captors and declared himself a "mujahid," or warrior for Islam, according to secret documents prepared on the basis of a purported eyewitness account and obtained by Fox News. The reports indicate that Bergdahl's relations with his Haqqani captors morphed over time, from periods of hostility, where he was treated very much like a hostage, to periods where, as one source told Fox News, "he became much more of an accepted fellow" than is popularly understood. He even reportedly was allowed to carry a gun at times.

Doesn't matter if he is a traitor or deserter or just lost his way.

The issue that NO ONE is talking about is that when you join the military your life is forfeit in any given situation. It's in the contract. Bergdahl was subject to capture and torture and death, as all captured grunts are. Too bad 6 other soldiers died because of his decision.

The concept of "no one left behind" is BS. Yes, in battle you try to carry the casualties off the battlefield. But if captured, bummer...and you don't negotiate with terrorists and release 5 high profile Taliban for the life of a soldier who knew he could die by joining the Army. Shit happens.

Hell, I was a simple sailor and our ship went dead in the water and almost capsized in heavy seas. So what? I signed on to that threat. I also almost got cut in half by a Ch-53 tail rotor when the LSE launched it prematurely as I was running across the flight deck to fuel another helo. So what if I had been cut in half? I volunteered for such duty - no draft.

Not saying sailors have as biggest threat as grunts, but we all sign on to potential death from enemies. That's the risk everyone takes when joining the military.

The Kenyan maggot simply has made the decision to benefit the jihadis, both domestic and foreign. Is this news to anyone?

Along with all the other Clown-In_Chief "phony" scandals such as
F&F
Benghazi
Obamacare
IRS
NSA
list goes on and on for the past SIX years of constant lying to the American people.

A great photo op. I listened to Brigitte Gabriel and Zuhdi Jasser on Sean Hannity talk show on June 4, 2014 and Brigitte says that this rose garden photo op was interpreted by Islamists around the globe as they're having "PLANTEDG THE ISLAM FLAG ON THE US WHITE HOUSE".

Ignore this source but it is the only transcript that is "almost a transcript" from the Hannity show that I could find.......(here)

“So exactly what message was he trying to send?” Hannity asked Gabriel sinisterly. Then before she could answer, Hannity quoted another fave Islamophobe, Walid Shoebat. “What that father was saying in the Rose Garden - …Walid is suggesting he was declaring the Muslim victory call and then the president smiles when he does it, as soon as he hears. He (Shoebat) calls it the ‘war cry of Allah.’ Is that what that is, when he said that?”

“It is the war cry of Allah,”
Gabriel agreed. She claimed Bergdahl didn’t know what he was saying but, she added, “throughout history, the Islamic history of 1400 years, every time Muslims conquered a place or a location, they would stand and… (declare) the greatness of Allah over that land.” According to Gabriel, “The Talibans and the Islamist radicals all throughout the world will perceive as a victory and a success over Allah, standing on the steps of the White House.”

It’s one thing to get the guy back, but he makes a big Rosé Garden production out of it. So Wierd. He had to have known the truth would come out that the guy is a jihadist or traitor. Why would obama do this?

IMHO, Mini-B is YAMCA - Yet Another Mind-controlled CIA Asset.

Someday he’ll probably be Secretary of State.

They just have to get him in the shop and stop his blinking first.

Only take two or three sessions, a few prescriptions, and some flashing lights. Right now, after his ordeal, he’s convinced he’s a camel.

Never say “blue turtle mambo streetcar” around him or he’ll start killing people, then kill himself.

James Rosen was working on this report last night.

He said something big was up.

Rosen has real good sources, big enough that WH went after him

James Rosen is good.

I think he and Catherine Herridge are the very best at FNC.

Jesus Christ: You can’t impeach Him and He ain’t going to resign.

- Obama has always been pro “homo electus”

- He said he would talk with the muzzie terrorists

- Now he has fulfilled his promise to the scummy shirtheads - in spades...

It’s Obama cutting the lifelines, to insure Iran remains safe for the Mullahs, and Russia, for years to come. He also shut down our base in Kyrgystan a while back.

So was Johnny Taliban Walker Lindh A/K/A Sulaiman... in the training camp and in Mazar el Sharif.

Quick, dredge up a relevant news story to divert attention... Something like watching OJ drive his car down the freeway!
