Taliban claim captured U.S. solider has converted to Islam and is teaching its fighters bomb-making skills
Ping.
Now we know why the visit to Afghanistan last week...
Five years is a long time to hold on to a captive.
The only question is will it be the MOH or the Gold Star Hero medal.
I hope that the Army is considering the possibility of something resembling the Stockholm Syndrome with this soldier.
This is a rerun of Homeland, with a twist...... Brody infiltrated the government and became a US Congressman, a potential VP candidate, and suicide bomber.......our government has already been compromised and a terrorist occupies the Oval Office and commits acts of terror against this country just about every day.
We got a member of the Fifth Column in return for five muzzie terrorists.
Say what you want, but the Taliban knows how to make deals.
"At this point, what difference does it make?"
I think he defected-Intentionally joined the enemy based on the fact as they emerge. I think something far more insidious is behind this fabrication. This reminds me of the “Video” used to divert the real truth.
bttt
".....We come to realize that the kid deserted his post, snuck out of camp and sought out Taliban… to join them. .....
More bad stuff here:
And some congress critters and some of the news / commentary sites are now saying that 0bama's releasing 5 very hardcore terrorists in trade for him was illegal, the way it was done.
(Maybe it was more than just merely illegal.. I wonder if the congresscritters know the backstory yet.)
.......................................................
And this is the guy's father:
..............................................
No wonder 0bama loves this guy and willingly broke laws and endangered the entire world to bring him back:
"Bowe Bergdahl would detail his disillusionment with the Afghanistan campaign in an e-mail to his parents three days before he went missing.
“I am sorry for everything here,” he wrote. “These people need help, yet what they get is the most conceited country in the world telling them that they are nothing and that they are stupid.”
"Bergdahl also complained about fellow soldiers. The battalion commander was a “conceited old fool,” he said, and the only “decent” sergeants, planning to leave the platoon “as soon as they can,” told the privates — Bergdahl then among them — “to do the same.”
“I am ashamed to be an American. And the title of US soldier is just the lie of fools,”
“I am sorry for everything. The horror that is America is disgusting.”
SOURCE.
And ... Just how did this guy get promoted to Sergeant while in captivity.? Apparently he was a PFC when he deserted.
Now 0bama struts about; the Hero who 'got Bin Ladin and brought home the Last American POW' 'shows how he really cares, about our troops.'
And of course the deserter will be welcomed home as a hero by the MSM, make all the lefty talk shows, and the lo-fo voters will eat it up with a spoon.
I could not have imagined this story. Richard Condon, Author of "The Manchurian Candidate" would have stretched everyone's credulity if he has written this tale as a fiction novel.
