Agreed, I have read of some “issues” prior to his enlistment; I don’t know if they are fair or true or not.
On the theory that they ARE true, it would explain why the parents are walking on eggshells talking to their son on that video. That is my impression, that in their extreme emotion they are being very careful what they say and how they say it. Like they are afraid of saying the wrong thing and messing him up.
Messing him up.
Kind of like the six guys killed looking for this POS were messed up?
Your twisted defense of this deserter and most likely traitor is getting old.

Step back a step and consider why they are communicating via a public video presser, rather than a personal phone call. They are being handled, of course.
Then we can go to the cui bono (who benefits?) .
Once again, the battle will be in the reporting. Will the media have any curiosity about the "rest of the story"? Will the events that followed his "capture" be widely and fully related? Will we hear from his one time comrades in arms through other than blogs and recaps of blogs? Joe Six Pack does not red blogs.
