Taliban claim captured U.S. solider has converted to Islam and is teaching 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.

A Taliban deputy district commander in Paktika, who called himself Haji Nadeem, told the newspaper that Bergdahl taught him how to dismantle a mobile phone and turn it into a remote control for a roadside bomb.

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.'

At least his home town has canceled the parade for this traitor. He apparently taught the Taliban more than badminton.

The Kenyan does not care about Bergdahl, he just wanted an excuse to release his Muzzie buddies.

Pinging Persevero.

Maybe you will defend this too, since you appear to be a good buddy of the traitor Bowe Bergdahl.
