@A.Balkhi I am still working to free all Guantanamo prisoners. God will repay for the death of every Afghan child, ameen!— Robert Bergdahl (@bobbergdahl) May 28, 2014
And at the end of the presser with Obama, right before Obama hugged him, Bergdahl said, according to Gateway Pundit,
“Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim” —which means “In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Compassionate.”
Sorry if you are close to this, but there is something seriously wrong here.
I saw the tweet, and all I can say is I wonder if it’s hacked or faked. If not, there is an obvious and new problem. Quite unexpected. But I have seen phony and hacked tweets many times over the years so that possibility must be considered.
As for the Pashto language Allah thing, I guess we have to believe that that is what it means, so, if so, a stock phrase? Alternatively, we are to believe that a man who has been a member of a serious Bible believing church with strong discipline who home schooled his kids in Idaho has suddenly become a Muslim. It could happen, but, it sure is rare.
The parents seemed to be quite genuinely emotional and loving toward their son, but they also seemed to be being very careful what they said and how they expressed it. They seemed to have been coached (I don’t mean conspiratorially) as to what to say. Like they are handling Bowe as a very fragile guy, which he may understandably well be. As I have mentioned on other posts, brain washing, torture, trauma and mental illness may all be in play here. I really feel for the parents. They have not talked to Bowe and can only go on what they are being told.
