Full Title: "Taliban claim captured U.S. solider has converted to Islam and is teaching its fighters bomb-making skills

A captured American soldier is training Taliban fighters bomb-making and ambush skills, according to one of his captors and Afghan intelligence officials.

Private Bowe Bergdahl disappeared in June 2009 while based in eastern Afghanistan and is thought to be the only U.S. serviceman in captivity.

The 24-year-old has converted to Islam and now has the Muslim name Abdullah, one of his captors told The Sunday Times.

Nadeem claimed he also received basic ambush training from the U.S. soldier.

'Most of the skills he taught us we already knew,' he said. 'Some of my comrades think he's pretending to be a Muslim to save himself so they wouldn't behead him.'

This traitor is the HERO of the US Pentagon,
which was bombed by al Qaeda
and is now run by the same group
through its Caliph and pRes_ _ent,
the undocumented, unvetted, First Moslem Impostor.

No wonder Mr. Obama treated his parents like royalty.

Funny how the Brits publish this and the American Nina Burleigh Press, ABCBSNBCNN, ignore it as well as loyal military current comments .....save for FOX’s Megan Kelly.

This makes no sense. This administration can not be this traitorous or this unbelievably stupid?
Something does not add up with this swap. They truly are the enemy within,
how far do these thugs have to take it before we do something?

No one will do anything. This time next week there will be another scandal and we will move on. Obama has shredded the Constitution time and again, yet congress goes right along with him.

They say he's having trouble speaking English. I call BS.

The brain doesn't work that way and it's not like he was 2 when captured.

I do believe he is a Muslim...and in fact...probably was when he joined and this was a free ride.

He is absolutely a traitor, IMHO. I believe he posed as a POW and this was a big phony “trade” to clear 5 terrorists from Gitmo. And Obama helped orchestrate the whole charade.

I am now “friends” with Dan Witmer on FB. This is his reply to my post to him:

“Dan Witmer Mary, I too see the direction we are heading as a Nation. I feel the fabric of my very soul being ripped apart. I take comfort in my beliefs. I believe and accept this is God’s will and His will shall be done, knowing the rewards He promised brings comfort. I will not stop fighting the good fight.”

He’s a good guy.

Not long after that, a young friend of ours was killed by an IED in that same province. Makes me wonder.

Yeah, he pretended so well that he can't speak English anymore. Yeah, that's why before he deserted he sent all those anti-American emails and shipped his uniform to his islamic father.

He does have a point. God is very angry at the nations that sacrifice their children and all other lesser evils. We should find out about the revival in China and have them come here. Also save on the church’s missionary funds to Central America since they are coming here, too.

They've been thumbing their noses at us since the 2008 campaign by running someone who so obviously hated America, was islamic and didn't meet the Constitutional requirements to be president. They've been very in your face for the past 6 years with their quest to destroy America and we have done nothing but bent over and asked for more. Turn out the light, the party has long been over.
