Bowe Bergdahl’s Dad on Why He Grew That Beard (Muslim Terrorist sympathizer)
TIME ^ | Jun 3, 2014 | Dan Kedmey

Posted on 06/03/2014 6:20:44 PM PDT by Innovative

Robert Bergdahl said he began growing the beard as soon as he received news of his son’s capture.

...those attempts to understand the Taliban have occasionally shaded into acts and gestures that strike some critics as a little too close for comfort. Just recently, reports surfaced of a tweet deleted from Bob Bergdahl’s Twitter account that directly addressed a Taliban spokesman. “I am still working to free all Guantanamo prisoners,” it read. “God will repay for the death of every Afghan child, ameen.”

Why he grew the beard? Because he despises his own culture (and ethnicity). He’s a traitor, and should be made to go live with the ...... “folk” he loves so much. Keep them out, and throw out the ones like him.

The NSA is too busy feeding information about TEA party types to the IRS.

I reckoned that Birddog grew the beard to hide a weak chin and ugly mug.
Additionally, I thought the pony tail was in celebration of Jihad Bob's freak side.

“God will repay for the death of every Afghan child, ameen.”

This fool has no idea what God will do. If he means Allah, I am sure that Allah will repay his faithful adherents with damnation.

My God, the REAL God, is the almighty judge and He will decide who gets repaid.

Another interesting article:

U.S. Army launches formal investigation into Bowe Bergdahl’s desertion and captivity after the Taliban claimed he was a collaborator

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2647569/Bowe-Bergdahls-conduct-investigated-U-S-Taliban-claimed-collaborator-changed-Abdullah-taught-bomb-making-skills.html

“The reports shed new light on 2010 reports that Bergdahl was training Taliban fighters in bomb-making and ambush skills which were dismissed as propaganda at the time.

One of his captors said that he converted to Islam and was going under the name Abdullah and was ‘very relaxed in our company’.”

God will repay for the death of every Afghan child,

God will repay your traitor son for the innocent lives of the patriots who died looking for your coward son.

His father’s address is known. I’m sure we have some military there.

They have their duty.

______________________________________________

Ah yes the normal behavior for the father of an American soldier POW...

why John McCain’s dad grew one...

and the father of Jeremiah Denton...

and then there were the fathers of the crew of the Pueblo..

The fathers of Winston Churchill, Charles de Gaulle, George Washington and Andrew Jackson may have already had beards but they probably let them get quite scraggly and didn’t groom them....

Beards for our Boys...tied with yellow ribbons of course...

Just read the interview he gave after his son was released — some parts don’t read as a happy Father, more like trying to send messages to the Taliban/terrorists.

Not to mention his exclamations in Pashtu, while standing right next to Obama.

“his command of Pashtu and Arabic and his use of an Islamic greeting while standing next to Mr Obama “

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/10871130/Bergdahl-release-deal-critics-focus-on-fathers-bushy-beard-and-utterances-in-Arabic-and-Pashtu.html

One theory is that the son was never a “prisoner” of the Taliban — actually the group where he was is listed as a terrorist organization, not “merely Taliban” — he joined them voluntarily and just pretended to be prisoner — the fact that he is not willing to talk English even now that “he is free” would lead one to wonder. Also, it is not impossible to believe that he and his friends have been in constant touch with his Father, another terrorist sympathizer and the Father was sending a message with his current statements.

I am afraid I may be closer to the truth, than I wish.

Is this some sort of syndrome, identifying with your son’s captors?

What banana boat did this moron drop in off of?

Does anyone remember that the Al Qaeda murdered civilian Nick Berg had a father who was a flaming far-left nut, if not outright communist?

Seems that the “Berg” fathers have something in common.

Both support the killers/captors of their sons. One got lucky because of Obama’s cowardice. The other buried his son and blamed it on Bush.

At least Daniel Pearl died like a man while his wife wimped out like a typical liberal.

The “old American father” for so many kids today is gone. Cowardice, wimpiness, wacked out liberal/leftist views - they are what too many of our children are getting instead of a strong, patriotic, sane father, or mother, or both.

Just look at how Cindy Sheehan went “red” through the Castroit “Code Pink” and exploited her soldier son’s brave death for her own marxist career.

I’m proud of my soldier son (OIF, first in). His men counted on him in combat, and I counted on him when I went into cardiac arrest. His men were safe and I was saved.

Too bad the Nick Berg couldn’t count on his father to save him. Bergdahl is looking more like a pathetic reflection of his father. I feel sorry for him but I feel more sorrow and pain for those brave American soldiers, his friends, who died looking for his pathetic, cowardly ass.

It is a crying shame what America has become.

IMPEACH THE TRAITOR OBAMA, NOW!
