Report: Bowe Bergdahl Wrote a Note Saying He Wanted to Renounce His American Citizenship
The Blaze ^ | 6/3/14 | Zach Noble

Posted on 06/03/2014 10:42:29 AM PDT by jimbo123

Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl wrote a note expressing a desire to renounce his American citizenship, according to Fox News.

Fox News’ Jennifer Griffin reported Tuesday that members of Bergdahl’s unit said he left behind a note saying he felt disillusioned with the Army and wanted to renounce his citizenship before he was captured in 2009.

Griffin reported that the note has not been made public, nor been provided to Fox, but is part of the body of evidence being examined in the classified investigation.

There have been a number of questions surrounding the deal to release Bergdahl in exchange for five Guantanamo Bay detainees, including whether Bergdahl really got lost or was actively looking for the Taliban when he was captured.

Overheard by the Rose bushes in the garden:

Bob Bergdahl: “Mr. President, I feel I must tell you something. I swear by the Prophet (PBUH) it’s the truth, and I just hope you take this the right way. Bowe left a note with his unit renouncing his American citizenship.”

Soebarkah: “Really?? Me too!! When I was 20 I did something that legally renounced my US citizenship. I was in Indonesia and I decided to renew the passport my mom and step-dad got for me as a child, which I had to do before I turned 21. I wanted to be able to freely come and go from Indonesia as I pleased and also to travel to other countries without being identified as an American. They told me that under their law I had to choose, I could either be an Indonesian or an American but not both. Remember, Americans had just elected the fascist reactionary Ronald Reagan. Later, I saw that everything I feared about him was true when he tried to crush the socialist movement in Nicaragua and litter Europe with missiles. So it wasn’t a hard choice. But of course I didn’t tell the Americans what I did! Hahahahahaha!”

Bob Bergdahl: “Wait, I thought it wasn’t a problem for people to have dual passports?”

Soebarkah: “Not if you voluntarily do it as an adult, and the country you get the other passport from requires you to state that you relinquish all other nationalities because they don’t allow dual citizenship.”

Bob Bergdahl: “Oh I see. Hahahahahaha!”

Mrs. Bergdahl: “Hahahahahaha!”

Soebarkah: “Anyway, don’t worry about that, Bob. Unlike what I did, just leaving a note is not enough to revoke his American citizenship.”

Bob Bergdahl: “Thank you, thank you Mr. President. You are truly most gracious and merciful, like the Prophet (PBUH) says of Allah, Bism’Allah alrahman alraheem.”

Soebarkah: [Bows reverently.]

If this traitor wants to give up his USA citizenship, maybe he can sell it to a certain Occupant of the WH ?

The father is at the bottom of this filthy story. Sort of a psychological version of Munchausen by Proxy.

They will believe what they want to believe. Like Stockholm Syndrome, they are emotionally vested in this situation for the past 5 years. It will be painful & nearly impossible for them to realize they were wrong.

Thank goodness for the Daily Mail and the Canadian press.

Our press corps are repulsive.

So how does that work with the Army? If he renounced his citizenship, can the Army still court-martial him?

Non-citizens sometimes join the Army. They are subject to UCMJ.

Right, but what happens when a citizen joins and then renounces?

IIRC, renouncing your citizenship requires a bit more.

I'm betting he will be court matialed before the week is out....particularly because guys died looking for this little ____________.
