The Taliban found Pfc. Bowe Bergdahl walking alone, acting abnormally and cursing his countrymen before they captured him in Afghanistan in 2009, two men who were Taliban commanders at the time told NBC News on Thursday.
They said that Afghan locals first informed fighters about the soldier, and then the fighters rushed to capture him.
Our people at the time couldnt understand his language, but it was after he was shifted to a safe location, he said he wasnt happy with his countrymen, but he didnt intend to convert to Islam or join mujahideen (holy warriors), one of the commanders said.
The commanders said that Taliban officers first thought it was a trick perhaps an American soldier sent out alone to spy on the enemy.
As we never saw their soldier patrolling alone
we would ask him how he managed to walk out of his base, one of the commanders said. He would tell us that it was personal issue.

I think he collaborated with the enemy too and I base that primarily on info supplied by the Taliban. What was said here doesn’t really ameliorate his actions at all.
LOL He and 0bama seem like birds of a feather alrighty.
Yep. Their five guys are under what is, I suspect, a very genteel house arrest in Qatar. Bergdahl is in U.S. hands. For the moment that's an edge. Supposedly it will last for a year. In practice it will last until they "escape".
0bama still has a good deal to bribe them with, including concessions in the ongoing negotiations that are the real object of this ridiculous charade. If I were them I'd be on a rug five times a day with my butt in the air thanking Allah that the U.S. is being led by such a creature as Barack Hussein 0bama. Whether it's incompetence or malevolence or both, he's their boy.
Well thanks for that!!! HA!!
Screw you lazy crapweasel.
Wow!! How un-Freeper like!!
So are you just going to continue to call me names and try to insult me???
How FReeper like is that?
Have I insulted you..called you names? Nope.
I'll let fellow FReepers decide.
I'm done with you.
You made the accusation, can’t back it up, expect others to do that work for you and now you’re whining like a little girl for being called out on it. STHU, jerkwad. You’re nothing but a toothless yapping chihuahua of a man.
Thanks once again...sister for being such a fine FReeper.
