The Taliban released a video Wednesday purporting to show the moment former prisoner Bowe Bergdahl was handed over to American custody.
The 17-minute video, sent to NBC News by a known Taliban spokesman, shows both sides quickly shaking hands before a clean-shaven Bergdahl is handed over.

Then don’t read the NYT article about Bergdahl today. They claim Republican strategists orchestrated what Bergdahl’s fellow soldiers are saying about him and that no one died searching for him because the search lasted only a few days.
MF’s. My blood is BOILING.
“The white house will spin it. That’s what they do, who they are.”
To me it is just Obama doing what he said he would, specifically siding with the Muslims when push comes to shove. He sides with the enemies of the US and pushes away America’s allies.

Many thanks codejockey, for posting the article!
But of course! This wretched cow is their designated liar in chief because the demons know the republicans dare not call her on anything lest they be accused of continuing their "war on women."
Why do you think it is interesting they patted him down?
Women of colour never lie. A touch of the tar brush forgives all.
For you to sugges otherwise, be racis!
“Why do you think it is interesting they patted him down?”
They didn’t trust him.
I'm sure you wrote that because you know it's standard procedure. I read the neatest book about a guy shot down in Bosnia and he was stuck there for days, hiding in the woods before he finally got in a place where he could "triangulate" and let his squad know where he was. He was given instructions not to bring out his gun and to calmly walk out when the helicopter landed. He said when the helicopter landed he came running out with his gun drawn and they threw him to the ground, searched him and then on to the helicopter. It was a true story, I know several people on here probably know who he is but it was years ago, forget his name. A TRUE American hero.
And the media will go along.
He doesn’t look at all ill or gaunt to me. I suspect they shaved his hair and eyebrows so he’d look a little sickly. I think a recent shave accounts for his paleness too.
What needs to be investigated is if he defected to the Taliban and if The One knew this. If so then BOTH of them need to be brought up on charges of High Treason.
The New York Times has been selected.
Washington Times does their level best to divide the no vote, how pathetic are these leftists?
Poll: Should the president have negotiated for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl’s release?
Yes 368 (7%)
No 2407 (48%)
He was a deserter 1316 (26%)
It jeopardizes all U.S. troops 1010 (20%)

I have attempted numerous ways of viewing this video... Whether I click on your link to the original source or do a google search and click on the link, I am routed to a generic NBC News page. I have searched that page using the title and the author’s name... The results are ZERO. I have also checked the “cookie blocker” on my computer. Any other suggestions? Thank you.
The traitor was carrying a bag, but I didn’t see anyone take it from him or search it before he boarded the chopper, even though B. was patted down. Could just be the footage though.
Look at the tape...really look at it....those US troops were in a very bad spot...the Taliban had the high ground....they(the Taliban) picked the hand off site well. What would you suggest they do...spit at the Taliban which would have brought hell down on them from the Taliban on that hill behind the Blackhawk.
They just wanted to make sure he wasn’t sporting a suicide vest that the Taliban may have put on him. Makes sense.
Makes sense.....if they don’t trust him.
Anyone with half a brain can see that our Commander-in-Chief IS the enemy within and SHAMES our military AGAIN in the eyes of the world.
Question is, why was this trade rushed? Was Obama blackmailed by Al Qaeda to do this before June 1st? Why the rush? Bergdahl for this trade WAS AN AFTERTHOUGHT.. RELEASING THE 5 TALIBAN COMMANDERS WAS OBAMA'S #1 PRIORITY.
Hearings are a MUST for this act of treason.
