that "Taliban saving us the cost of legal fees" thing was a pretty fucked up way of trying to make his point. But uh, are you seriously that outraged at Fox? Why isn't it directed at that tool of a Lt. Colonel? That lady was just asking him what the story was.
The facts are rolling in that the guy was really a deserter... planned it in advance leaving a note saying he was "going to the mountains to find himself," walked off the base with a day's supply of water, and was turned over to the Taliban by some people in a village after trying to get more water from them. Check out this account from a reporter on the ground over there:

From the video... you can't argue with this line of thinking, knowing he is being used as a piece of propoganda:
| quote: | On that video, he is collaborating with the enemy. Under duress or not, that’s really not relevant. He’s making accusations about the behavior of the military in Afghanistan that are unfounded, saying there are no rules. He’s lying about how he was captured, saying he lagged behind a patrol.
Julie, I’ll tell you, any 11 Bravo infantryman will tell you, that’s not how it works. In a war zone, any soldier is aware of where all his buddies are. If it’s a night patrol, you’re sure of where the guy in front of you and behind you is. So we know this private is a liar. |
