Working to free all Guantanamo prisoners’ tweet from account of released soldier’s father deleted
Twitchy ^ | May 31, 2014 | Twitchy Staff

As Twitchy has reported, President Obama ordered the release of five Gitmo detainees to secure the return of Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl from his Taliban captors in Afghanistan.

Recently, a tweet was published from the account of Bowe Bergdahl’s father, Robert, which stated a desire to see all Gitmo detainees released.

Here’s the tweet from Bob Bergdahl’s account, which was published May 28 and deleted Saturday night (at the time of publication the deletion of the tweet has not been acknowledged on the account):

@ABalkhi 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

Dear father of the soldier who went for a sunday walk off his post, endangering his unit: Because of your son, who we are happy is alive, 5 terrorists have been released back into the warzone to go kill the Afgan children that you seem so concerned about, along with their mothers and fathers. Stew on that for a while. Love, America

At first I thought that may be his brother, turns out, that’s Bergdahl’s father. Then, I wondered about that beard. Some white american men do grow bushy beards like this, but most spend a little effort to groom it. I was struck at how stringy and unkempt the beard looked. Now, I’m hearing that both former prisoner and his father are Taliban Sympathizers. Bad scene all around. Outside of that one family’s joy in their son’s return, I can see nothing good coming of this for the country. There will be other kidnappings, bank on it.

The depth of the trouble the US is in just expands daily. How the heck are we going to last until the next election???

Treason and breaking laws too numerous to mention can’t even get this guy thrown out - and they all know it.

I have minimal contact with the MSM, but I did catch a clip on the car radio about this.
They said Bergdahl’s home town was having a big celebration, with friends/neighbors delirious with joy.
The story shifted to spoilsport gloomy-gus Republicans who expressed concern over non-notification as required by law.
Then Susan Rice said it's all ok because the Administration had a small window and had to act immediately to save Bergdahl’s life.

Exactly. That’s how the MSM and Obama work hand-in-hand.

Any opposition is characterized as “gloomy gus”, sour grapes Republicans, opposing Obama just because he’s black. They can’t win.

Oh, It is even worse than even 'tin-hatters' like me would imagine.

Here is an excerpt of a story just posted at The Blaze:

".......When news of Sgt. Bergdahl’s release broke, I reached out to intelligence contacts who have operated in the Af/Pak region and are familiar with the situation. I wanted to discuss what was being reported – and more importantly - what wasn’t. The following is what they told me.

When Sgt. Bergdahl was picked up by the Haqqanis, he was described as /diwana/ – the Pashtu word for intoxicated. He was with two or three Afghan soldiers he had walked off his Forward Operating Base with. It is believed the group was en route to indulge in further intoxicants.

Once the Haqqanis had stumbled onto Sgt. Bergdahl, they moved quickly to secure him and move him out of Afghanistan into Pakistan.

This information was passed on to U.S. Special Operations Command, who contacted the powers that be in Kabul, who in turn reached out to Sgt. Bergdahl’s Forward Operating Base. According to my sources, the F.O.B. had not even noticed that Sgt. Bergdahl had failed to appear for muster that morning.

Until they could spirit Sgt. Bergdahl out of Afghanistan, the Haqqanis decided to hide him nearby among the nomads known locally as the ‘Koochi.’ And while the soldiers of Task Force 82 passed by, frantically searching for Sgt. Bergdahl, shouting “Bowe! Bowe!” not a single Koochi tent flap was lifted or even investigated. Had that been done, Bergdahl might have been discovered and rescued before the Haqqanis could sneak him into Pakistan.

The Haqqanis took Bergdahl into the Showal area of Northern Waziristan where he fell under the control of a man named Mullah Sangeen Zadran, the chief of operations for Siraj Haqqani – head of the Haqqani terror network. ...Contrary to press reports, the Afghan Taliban – aka the Quetta Shura - never had their hands on Sgt. Bergdahl. He was always under the control of the Haqqani network......."

I also have it on high authority that 0bama himself called off the search and rescue mission very early.

Are we to the point yet where we can counter with a decided, “Death to all ‘fidels’ “?

If not, what will it take?

I see it!

The freak father is now on tv bloviating. He may be another Cindy Sheehan. Obviously, sick, hippie parents. He’s talking in muzzie talk now. Get the hook!

Um, what the hell is going on here? I smell something really bad.

I will concede that as yet I cannot state categorically, that there seems to be a news black out. I have watched both Canadian and American networks. Certainly they are imbued with the human drama of it all and the persons concerned. Nothing wrong with getting the initial story out. They have done this with the Presidential statement and interviews with the man's family.

I notice one important item which is repeated; in that the Republicans are asking questions. This on the wisdom of giving up these homicidal men, thus setting a pattern. So far so good. I stand corrected, but nothing about the circumstances of this unfortunate man's capture. If I am right, then evidence exists of a mass self censorship carried on by the MSM.

Very disturbing indeed.

Holy crap! Like another poster on this thread has said, if this doesn’t cause people to really wake up, our country is gone!

But don't hold your breath for the MSM to delve into any of this. Obama has spoken.

You hit it Steve! That is the bottom line. Once zero has had his moment in the sun and the dbm has covered it the story does not exist anymore.Great catch.
