The Era of Obama’s Unintended Consequences

Fox News James Rosen reported that while Bowe Bergdahl was in captivity he converted to Islam and declared himself a mujahid. Mujahid means one who struggles for the sake of Allah. Not surprisingly, in recent years it was closely associated with Islamic extremists. Fox News obtained Secret situation reports or SITREPS that detail Bergdahl’s life in the hands Haqqani captors. His life over the last five years, according to the SITREPS, consisted of a progression from mistreatment to acceptance to eventually trusting Bergdahl with a loaded AK-47.

In 2010 Bergdahl attempted to escape and disappeared for 5 days before being recaptured. He was confined in a custom built cage. In time he gained the trust of the Haqqani and his treatment improved.

SITREPS doesn’t mention whether Bergdahl actively collaborated with the Haqqani or the Taliban while being held but it doesn’t excuse him from deserting his post and further endangering American soldiers by deliberately placing them in harm’s way.

Negotiation for Bergdahl began a few months after he left his post and was captured.

Unintended Consequences

The prisoner exchange has encouraged the Taliban and the Haqqani to kidnap more U.S. service members and Americans in general now that the Obama administration is willing to negotiate with them.

Not only will terrorists get their Taliban brother/brothers back, but a deal with politically motivated crooks like Barack Obama might also be profitable as well

The Real losers

The people of Afghanistan who survived the reign of terror under Taliban rule are frightened that some of the monsters of their past are now free. They are now fearful of revenge courtesy of Mullah Obama.

There’s an untold story about this guy and the family.

His dad has a long beard and praises Allah. The son is said to be a deserter and not exactly being held prisoner as such. It seems that he was collaborating with the Taliban.

Yet Obama wants us to sweep all this under the rug.

This situation of swapping prisoners should be investigated as thoroughly as Benghazi, in my opinion. Something stinks to high heaven about this prisoner swap, and whether that guy was really a helpless POW.

And, clearly Obama violated the law about releasing prisoners from Gitmo, which clearly requires 30 day notice to Congress of such intent. How the heck does Obama spin this????

There are going to be serious Consequences from everything Obama, Judges and the Libs are doing and it not going to bode well for America, foreign and domestically, for the foreseeable future.

We are going to pay for Obama's folly for generations

Intended consequences. Obama wants to rule like a north korean dictator, and he’s doing pretty good so far at achieving that goal.
