Former GITMO detainies Obama traded for Bergdahl on Taliban piece talk team. Some who served find it sickening

What was the fool Obama thinking when he picked these 5 radical Islamic jihadists to set free in exchange for a traitor ? Why it makes some who served in Afghanistan sick to see what has happened and is now happening.


Obama was a failure in so many ways but this example clearly shows how he failed on foreign policy and negotiated with and supported America's enemies.

They will now be among Taliban representatives negotiating for peace in Afghanistan, a sign some negotiators in Kabul say indicates the Taliban’s desire for a peace pact.

So, the "some who served" is in reference to a FOX "news" commentator Alan West

West did not serve in Afghanistan, but he did serve in Iraq briefly until he was relieved of his duties.

Take it up with Trump, he is the one throwing in the towel in that place, and other places.

Sometimes people do something wrong for all the right reasons. In comparison Obama did everything wrong for all the wrong reasons.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allen_West_(politician)
West testified, "If it's about the lives of my soldiers at stake, I'd go through hell with a gasoline can."[19] At his hearing, West said that there were no ambushes against American forces in Taji until he was relieved of his leadership post a month later.[19] After West's retirement he received more than 2,000 letters and e-mails offering him moral support.[18] A letter supporting West was signed by 95 members of the U.S. Congress and sent to the Secretary of the Army.[

We're getting the "BUT OBAMA" already?

Obama is not talking to Taliban, Trump is.

The "some who served" turned out to be a FOX "news" talking head, who had been relieved of his duties in Iraq.

Anything else?

If you don't like it, take it up with Trump who is throwing in the towel.

You don't know who Obama is talking to. He talking to the enemy in Iran and tried to secretly funnel money to them. He was discovered and outed on that.

Alan West is only one example but not the only one. More have the same opinion but no links to them, yet.
