WTF?
Our prez willingly returned illegal combatants/terrorists to their theater of operations in a time of conflict.

The sickest part is the majority of the American people could care less and he'll get away with it.Quote:

Can you imagine the parents of a released WWII POW standing next to FDR or Truman and giving a Nazi salute? Nope, me neither, because those POW's were real heros and actual prisoners.
This guy is a traitor and deserter. And his parents praise his supposed captors in another language while the POTUS smiles from ear to ear. This is scary folks.
This traitor, his parents and the POTUS are sympathizers.
Can we trade Kim Kardashian and Kanye West for them, straight across? I'll even kick in a goat and a bottle of Viagra to sweeten the deal...Quote:

This guy was a deserter.
Get him back to the US and prosecute him under Article 85 of the UCMJ.
Marcus Luttrell had some interesting insight into the whole ordeal:
I would say if anyone knows WTF is up on this, it would probably be Luttrell... His opinion holds quite a bit in my book. Plus there are so many guys who either were in the same unit as Bergdahl, or were part of the numerous operations conducted in the region to try and find him. I also think it's pretty telling when is squad leader (IIRC that's what he was) described before his disappearance the Taliban in the region weren't very accurate with their IEDs, then he goes missing and a matter of weeks later somehow those same IED emplacers/triggermen are extremely accurate and detonating directly under the vehicles instead of in front or to the sides. Then again, what would I know, I only did intelligence and counter-IED work over there... [Coffee]Quote:
The lone survivor of Operation Redwing in Afghanistan, Luttrell told Glenn Beck Wednesday that the Taliban did all they could not only to kill him, but to “cut [his] head off.”
“They were doing everything they could to get to me to kill me,” he said.
“That’s the part that kind of got me off-guard, was the fact that they held him,” Luttrell continued, expressing surprise that Bergdahl was kept alive this long. “They don’t normally do that.”
Luttrell said he fought to the death each day, and when he left, there weren’t “any sweet goodbyes. … It was an all-out gunfight.”
Asked about the VA scandal, Luttrell said he never speaks poorly of the president, but “it was a good job on the politicians, shucking off the VA scandal by doing the whole Bergdahl thing.”
“That provides plenty of top cover, even if it did backfire,” he added. “And releasing those [Taliban leaders] is a bad move.”
Luttrell said America is “playing with the dangerous end of the knife” with what we’ve done, saying those who believe the Taliban has been “eradicated” need to remember that organizations like the Taliban are built from the “top down, not from the bottom up.”
“So you put the brain trust in there and they recruit, build. The brains of the organization, that’s the dangerous part of it,” Luttrell said. “I can’t stress this enough – there’s going to be some bloodshed here in the future. You don’t get that passive, peaceful soul sitting in Gitmo.”

Then stand him out back in front of a wall in front of a firing squad. After his lawful convistion of course.Quote:

Well, they've cancelled the home town parade.

Something just isn't right with this so-called prisoner swap. There is something much larger going on behind the scenes, there has to be. Even if you ignore the fact he is a traitor and the gitmo prisoners we swapped weren't actually POW's, treating this as an actual POW situation, it doesn't make sense. In no prisoner swap in history did it make sense to swap an Army Private in exchange for 5 Commanders. I am starting to think this entire swap is a distraction for something else going on. Some have said they think it might have been a distraction from the VA thing. I don't believe that. The administration has weathered much bigger storms than the VA scandal. That's no skin off their back. I have a gut feeling some other backroom deal is going in here. Something even more outrageous. Something so outrageous that the administration was willing to take the heat for this so-called "swap" in order to hide something else.
In other words, this entire "swap" seems like a sacrificial scandal to distract us...but it's so big it's hard to imagine what they are truly up to. We're distracted by the "negotiating with terrorists to free a traitor" part. Bring out the foil, but my gut says there is more going on here.
The junkyard dogs are snacking on a t-bone thrown to them by a thief who's busy stealing parts.
^ Even if this is true-will anything be done is the question ?

In the real world, there are a lot of good people dedicated to protecting the US, a lot of dumbarses who just want a safe cushy government job and a small number of power hungry freaks. The latter two categories make the first one look bad and the press appears bent on distorting everything they can in order to tear down any organization or institution bent on protecting the US or its heritage.

I finally just watched the Taliban video of the exchange; prompted by a story published by The Blaze (I'll post link below) and there are several red flags I agree with. The most alarming part of the video is two fold: 1) armed insurgents/Taliban fighters surrounding the LZ, one of whom has a freaking RPG; 2) the fact that the Taliban (still sworn enemies to everything American) have the high ground in a near perfect ambush position. Another issue, and perhaps largely unnoticed by most who see the video, how cordial and friendly Bergdahl appears with his "captors" considering how well fed and healthy he looks. This screams something much worse than just a simple exchange. Never mind that they don't frisk Bergdahl until he is a couple feet from the door of the UH-60 (a $21.3 million dollar aircraft with at least 7 US personnel onboard). I have a lot of questions as to how/why this went down... Namely why would special operations personnel break SOP on this operation so badly? What exactly were the terms of this deal that allowed an SF contingent to put themselves in such a vulnerable position? I may not have been a high-speed operator, or even an infantryman, but even MY Spidey senses tingled several times watching the video. Watch the video and see for yourself, then read the story... Kinda scary how it appears some rag tag organization like the fucking Taliban have brought the mightiest military force in human history to it's knees, all thanks to our current President.

Fast fwd to about 8min to see the exchange.

The way the friendlies acted and reacted to the bad guys makes me think they were not SF, but possibly from the three letter alphabet agencies. They lacked all sense of situational awareness and waved at the insurgents, turned their backs to them and had a general disregard for their own safety.

Or perhaps they knew they were safe?

Maybe State Dept. personnel? The 2 guys on the outside (as they approach the hostage) both have something clinched in their outside hands. I wonder what?Quote:

The good guy in the middle does a quick back pat-down of the hostage as the exchange takes place. A more thorough pat-down takes place at the Blackhawk.
One of the five has publicly declared that he will go back to war against the US. Who could have seen THAT coming?
http://twitchy.com/2014/06/06/surpri...ericans-again/
Gee, ya think the other 4 will just sit on the sidelines and watch the big game?
I am sure they made it known while they were in Gitmo that they did not let such intentions be known.
I am also pretty sure TPTB in Gitmo knew this.
I think it would also be reasonable to say that they passed that information on.
How long until BHO claims he knew nothing of the such?
It would almost seem he is purposely pushing buttons.
Ties in nicely with the latest from Bill Whittle:Quote:

I was wondering about this coming up.
Bergdahl could collect 5 years of back pay, benefits
The Army owes Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl a lot of money.It’s not just the standard paycheck for about $1,400 that he’s due on the 15th of this month.
Technically, the Army owes Bergdahl a lump sum check for back pay covering his five years in captivity.
That would probably be nearly $200,000 because, according to Army regulations, a soldier freed from captivity is entitled to not only his accrued basic pay but also housing allowance, food allowance, hostile fire pay and even some per diem payments.
http://www.armytimes.com/article/201...k-pay-benefits
The VA has a special payment structure for anyone who was a POW for more than 30 days.
Im sure he will be 100% VA rated.
Which if he is single would be around $2500 a month for life. (more if he gets married and has kids)
This was my thought as well. If they were SF they would have treated that differently even if they were told it was safe.Quote:
