[QUOTE="Cohiba, post: 2527569, member: 2550"] I want to make it perfectly clear...I do not in any way, shape or form want to accuse anyone of anything if they are not guilty. It just seems...yes I know that's a super vague word...but if you have men who have died looking for you, walk away from your post (several times) fellow comrades stating he walked away, several comrades stating he was against the military action he was involved with, emails and tweets about his anti involvement, and who knows what isnt being said or released...it just seems dang absurd. Why didn't they behead him like they have so many others?? Politics and inside prisoner exchange..so don't kill bim like we have all the other infidels?? Hell, my nephew is a career marine and a few years back...1992ish. He had his entire back tatooed , took about 8 months...anyway he was running around the base without a shirt on. D@mn, they snatched him up and just about discharged him...yes, discharge him for a full length backside tattoo. All I'm curious about are these issues (and more as facts come in). 1. Why was it 4 or 5 of theirs for 1 of ours. 2. Why those Taliban?? 3. Did Congress get the 30 day notice? If they didn't AND the Pres was wanting to get Bergdahl out why not notify the Congress a few days after he went missing? Basically a notice immediately after he went missing, an open policy that congress knew about, approved, and let it stand open until he was "rescued"? 4. If guilty, what punishmet? 5. Will our military now "beef-up" security, take action on walk abouts, and try to prevent this again? 6. What does this show our enemies about us? 7. Will future swift and severe action be taken against out enemies when something like this happens again? **The reason I ask, if we don't have a plan of "any" action on issues like this...will this increase kidnapping for prisoner exchange? 8. What happened to tbe policy of not dealing with the enemy? Now other parents, relatives, and loved ones can ask..."Why not rescue my son, daughter, spouse..etc". They did it for Bergdahl...why not my family member? Just a sad situation that I'm really concerned politics and even a Presidential election may ride on part of this. Futher dividing our country between the conservatives and liberals. [/QUOTE]
