Bergdahl will be out of the Army in a heartbeat, and those five fucksticks will be back on the battlefield even before that.

So much for the policy of non negotiation with terrorists. Wonder what kind of consequences this shift in policy might have in the future.
As for Bowe Bergdahl, He has some explaining to do and will no doubt be thoroughly debriefed. |

Mailed almost everything else home before leaving. Other soldiers were killed trying to find his dumb ass. I hope he was raped by Taliban daily, and the taste of their shit covered dicks never leaves him. |

While I generally detest Rolling Stone, they did some excellent reporting on his willful desertion. He had some nice things to say about America and the Army right before he deserted.

I admittedly don't know anything about this topic, but that's a terrible accusation to make about any of our soldiers out there. God knows a bunch of people on the internet certainly don't know the facts, and I'd assume most of the media doesn't either. I hope this guy catches a break when he makes it home. Sounds like he definitely deserves the benefit of the doubt. |
