Former U.S. Marine Lt. Col. Oliver North stated recently that Bergdahl was not a “prisoner of war” and was actually being held “hostage” by the Haqqanis, a terrorist group separate from the Taliban and associated with al Qaeda – and that a ransom was actually paid for him.
“Someone paid a ransom,” he said. “Whether the Qataries paid it, or some big oil sheik, or somebody used our petrodollars, but there was a ransom paid in cash for each one of them, my guess somewhere in the round numbers of $5 or 6 million to get Bergdahl freed. I know that the offer that was on the table before was close to a million.”
North goes on to state that this sets a dangerous precedent and places a price tag on every American’s head – exposing anyone who travels outside the US to the threat of kidnapping.
I don’t even recognize this “America” anymore. Since when do we take this kind of c**p from an imposter president, foreign born, Islamic sympathizer who is literally too inept to run a water ice stand…..and yet……he is STILL running our country?
why then the taliban men release this is not point,.,.,.,if they kindnap you as america someone will pay to bring you out so long you are a government worker.,.,.
No way he could be right. He’s never known anything before, has he?
He was wrong when warning us about Bin Laden BACK IN THE 80’s, right?
Naw, he doesn’t pay any attention to this stuff….
Not to bash but the Same O. North that sold weapons to terrorists and drug lords?…
