It’s possible he was on a covert mission to infiltrate the Taliban. Likely, no - but possible, yes. It would explain why he was aloof from the other members of his team, and was busy studying languages. And why they wanted to bring him back.
Or he could be a deserter. His father being a wacko Muslim doesn’t help his case.
I’ll reserve judgement until I hear more.
OK, flame away...
“I’ll reserve judgement until I hear more.”
Hear hear, I find the level of vitriol here disturbing.
I know a CLOSE friend of the Bergdahls. I know they are being misrepresented on this board; badly.
As for Bowe, I don’t know what happened, but how about we wait until we know for sure? I think he wanted to be rescued. I heard news reports that he tried to escape more than once. That doesn’t sound like someone who voluntarily joined the Taliban.
We all need to hear more with a critical ear.
