FULL VIDEO: Captured by the Taliban, US Soldier Bowe R. Bergdahl Speaks [1/3]

[anarchore]

Treated better than the US prisoners who are tortured at Gitmo, this guy is eating good food - and looks healthy.

[iti14]

I hope this guy comes home soon. Everyone calling him a traitor or making other unproven accusations about him should think twice. No one except him, his captors, and maybe a few people in the military know the circumstances of his capture. Give him the benefit of the doubt for now--it's what you would want others to do for you if you were in his shoes.

[cicikizable]

Poor guy will Be beheaded

[TheSuperSPyking]

@cicikizable im a Muslim and i dont believe that will do..it is not taught in ISLAM your allegation,im sure this soldiers is now embracing Islam and freed.you can call it now an AWOL if thats so..again its not taught in ISLAM to harm the captives in war.if that so your allegation have done,then who ever captured him are only bad apple in the bastkit,like your army if they tortured, killed also in the Guantanamo im not generalizing all the americans want that to happen..like in the MUSLIM people.

[THISISZION42303]

@MrAndrewAbe fuck off bastard!!!

[CodyAllenmusic]

@OmbraFuria what are you talking about? How is he a traitor?

[OmbraFuria]

@CodyAllenmusic Go Google him read the shit about him. After his capture he was afraid of being beheaded so afraid in fact that he gave away friendly positions. He also taught them to make specialty I.E.Ds and Ambush tactics. The men who captured them admitted that they knew some of these things already, but still his willingness to turn on his own people and train the enemy just make sure he won't be killed is a traitors act. How many lives could have been taken because of him its disgusting.

[CodyAllenmusic]

How many innocent lives are taken EVERY DAY by AMERICAN SOLDIERS in Iraq?375 9/11's have been committed by our glorious knights in shining armor, but I have a feeling that those don't bother you as much. I don't have the energy to get into a full-fledged argument right now; but yes; you are right: him giving away information resulted in innocent deaths, but the US being in the area is the reason that this happens. As a caveat,I would think you'd act similarly, given his circumstances.

[OmbraFuria]

@CodyAllenmusic I wouldn't enlist without knowing and thinking about being killed or captured. So no I wouldn't do the same, but your assumption is nice. As far as your arguments go you can't continue, because their the same long drawn out arguments that have been going on for years. Your not original if anything your opinion is the same as every other brain washed fool who believes whatever any anti war college student spouts.

[CodyAllenmusic]

@OmbraFuria Yeah, I am brainwashed... What are you talking about? You're saying that because something has consensus, it means that it is wrong? That makes a whole lot of sense. And how drawn out is my argument? Do you really have to think that hard to look at a simple statistic? Sorry I couldn't put it in simpler terms. Simply put, the military rapes children, kills innocent women and children; yet 375 AMERICAN deaths mean more to you than the hundreds of thousands of arabic deaths.Simple.

[OmbraFuria]

@CodyAllenmusic Your simple statics and simple arguments are missing a lot of key factors your argument the same with statistics are brought down by media, and or kids who don't know what the fuck their talking about. You act like this whole war is based off 9/11 if it was just 9/11 by itself they drew first blood, and if people want to assist our enemies by hiding them or working against us then they themselves become enemies period. As far as this war goes this shit has continued longer then

[OmbraFuria]

@CodyAllenmusic "How many innocent lives are taken EVERY DAY by AMERICAN SOLDIERS" How many innocent lives are taken from these radical terrorist cells? You think their just in Iraq? Or Afghan? Their all over the fucking world bombing anyone any attacking anyone who doesn't agree with their beliefs. FACT More countries then you know of have a problem with these fanatics but keep looking at the small picture its working out well for you.

[CodyAllenmusic]

@OmbraFuria Not half as many as are taken from American bullets. Than I know of? Really? I have family in Kyrgstan, where the US is not intervening, yeah I understand what is going on around the world. These "terrorists cells" are hugely isolated and largely not affected at all by american troops. As a sidenote, I don't even believe that 9/11 was fully committed by 'terrorists". What are you talking about "acting"... YOU NEVER BROUGHT IT UP! The reason we are in the middle east is oil.

[TheSuperSPyking]

@OmbraFuria your Allegations bro is wrong.these massive media are totally controlled by your government.here in my country i live in, the only ISLAMIC city of the Philippines.my relatives is one of the big politician and we know that their are outsider who cape on making havoc in our city.claiming that they are Muslim and the media in the Philippines is covering it up,just to show the world that Muslim is bad.i know this.this part of the world in my country is one of the dots for the big show

[wariscomeing]

[kuraz1]

[GeekyMacBoy1]

[Kabul545]

[AleksM1991]

it has been over a year since he was captured...

where is he now, is he alive? dead? safe?

[4thel0ve]

@AleksM1991, I've been wondering that, too. Ever since this story was released it's been going through my mind off & on.

It seems that after the media has lost momentum on a story like this, everybody else forgets about it too. :(

[TheHawkinskinfolk]

@terminator847 Your a moron.

[86Jhard]

fuckin taliban i hate u i would kill u myself

[yankee22167]

fuck islam.....!!!

[mamundagrt]

@yankee22167 mother fucker....i will not comment anything bad about ur religion.bcoz islam dont allow this..bt remember ur a jahannami.

[yankee22167]

@mamundagrt Islam is a piece of shit, and mohammod was a child raping murdering criminal.....and mostlikely in hell! Islam is evil and on 9/11 i bought a quran at the book store, and i use it for toliet paper......

[yankee22167]

@mamundagrt Why Islam is fake.....Mohammod commited crinimal acts...and use the name of God to justify them...If Mohommod the piece of shit was alive today, he would be in prison-getting fucked in the ass.....well hes in hell, so hes getting it in the ass now..lol

[yankee22167]

@mamundagrt If I was Satan....I would create a religon that ideology was intolerate of all others. I would kill all non believers. I would enforce my ideology on everyone. I would stifle creativity, art, writings, and anything else the goes against my ideology. My disciple would be a soldier of death, he would kill women, children, and even be a thief in my name.....they would call me Allah!!, and my soldier of death with be named mohammod!!...

[Fersomling]

I don't blame him for doing what he has to do to survive. It's more that Bush ever did.

[codyRAZORBLADE]

I am the prophet muhammad :D

[napoleonpp]

Ok everybody stop making dumb comments about stupid stuff on tv and the internet. If you don't know first hand whats going on then don't effin worry about it. Plus if they are there and being tortured then there is a reason they went through all the trouble to capture that person and to interrogate them. They know something!!!! Oh man that sounds so awful that they have to act like a dog or imitate a sexual position. Give me a effin break. lol

[XXSwiftHuntXX]

This is the first account of an American POW in 2 years. Afghani forces are finally realizing the impacts of treating the POWs with respect. Their harsh actions in the past brought on our poor treatment of their soldiers. We were simply fighting fire with fire. Both side have lost a great amount of people. This video is proof we're BOTH tired of the War and it will end soon. America won't surrender, but rather shake hands and simply say "If you guys don't fuck with us, we won't fuck with you."

[XXSwiftHuntXX]

When they took people's lives on 9/11 they should have known the repercussions. Also, I think its bullshit to say that soldiers have no choice in what they do. This is exactly what they signed up for. They should have known this going into the ARMY. I don't believe in choice when I comes to military establishment. If you're needed there. You're going cuz thats what you signed up for. Look into the facts before you guys join the ARMY and start complaining.

[XXSwiftHuntXX]

Another point I'd like to make is why did the Taliban kill our innocents in 9/11? Honestly if you live by the rule eye for eye, you'd understand. Personally, if there are innocents within proximity of a high value target they should know they are in a dangerous place. Unfortunately, some won't and thats the Talibans fault for not taking into account that we may or may not attack them with these people are around... an opportunity occurs we take it.

[XXSwiftHuntXX]

The Taliban in the past has had no issues taking out a few innocents just to prove their cause.. why should we? Do you understand what I am saying? I'm not trying to justify it by all means. The day you guys stop blowing yourself up to kill random people is the day we stop this war. We cannot predict what will happen and we do care about who we kill. Self consciously we will always know both the US and Taliban have hands that are stained with blood.

[XXSwiftHuntXX]

IF in fact this is an authentic video, then the Taliban are finally understanding what it means to gain respect.

[88arau]

This is a damn wake up call to all Americans, Im a patriot and God loving christian but this war is BS. This soldier is basically contradicting everything portrayed in US media and its the TRUTH! Im not saying that these Taliban are justified but what do you expect from them at this point? If these Muslims let this guy go, or treated him properly as a prisoner of war..they could accomplish so much and send a message across the world. These people are starting to fight with intellect not death.

[AUSTLAND1]

I am muslim and i am proud to be a muslim .i just want to say please let him go and just forgive him because our PROPHET PBUH used to forgive prisoners.just treat him according to the islamic laws.

[slappy1234567]

Funny how these militant Muslims wanted to be treated in accordance with the Geneva Convention, but they will not extend the same treatment to U.S. soldiers.

[DutchPetriot]

LOL Taliban propaganda now what does Allah has told us about lying???

[blackmassus]

Fuck allah fuck taliban we shall nuke them !

[frfight]

Tugieboy, you're clearly a fool and rely on false information. You probably believe the moon is made of cheese too. What is this nonsense about eating meals. What do you consider torture anyway. I know the average Afghani lives a hard life, I saw it first hand. So whether they eat one meal or ten, has nothing to do with torture. I personally saw the Taliban & AQ isolate their prisoners in underground living quarters, in complete darkness, with only a small pipe feeding air to the room.

[frfight]

I've been to both Afghanistan and Iraq, and they DON'T treat there prisoners this well. Are you apart of the Taliban and that's how you know the way they treat prisoners? If not, where are you getting your information from?

[dernoot]

This guy won't be believed by the FOX news crowd... that's how it is. An interesting comment on killing innocent civilians. Can't tell what's going on though.

[mralhfi]

hi, everyone, that is clear that using prisoner for propaganda purposes is against the Geneva Convention, but during the interview with this soldier you clearly know that this interview have been made by ISI , Pakistan militry serviece, that they sevral times pronounce Afganistan instat of afghanistan, from the accents and matress and dress clearly shown that this interview have bee made under the control of ISI

[johnnycakesj7]

So are you from AF/PK? Sounds like you know a little about Afghan/Pakistani Culture. I was wondering about the interviewers accent and the clothing, but I'm not experienced in relations with them so I wasn't sure. It's definately propaganda, but there are some truths to it..unfortunately.

[johnnycakesj7]

What do you think he's drinking of that color over there..

[1800MarryMe]

The only thing that is not expressed is during our own interigations INDIVIDIUALS act on their own...the usa public do not think acts individuals have done NOT the country wants certain things. Let this guy go and you will get my respect and many others.

[shelbyfahrer]

They have even now my respect for not treating this man like the USA do with Taliban in Guantanamo or Iraqis in Abu Ghraib.

[frfight]

you're insane. using any prisoner for propaganda purposes is against the geneva convention.... clearly the USA doesn't treat it's prisoners as badly as this prisoner is being treated.

[suleydaman]

The only reason the USA doesn't use its prisoners as Propaganda is that it can't. No one can show Guantanamo and Abu Ghubaira as model prisons. The USA does still use propaganda though but its propaganda is just lies. Dude, you are seriously deluded. A prisoner speaking for 30 minutes is a lot better than blowing civilians up on a daily basis or being tortured in Guantanamo. You are in serious need of special care my friend.

[frfight]

You're right, the USA can't use it's prisoners as propaganda, because like I pointed out in my original comment, it's against the Geneva Convention, not because they don't have the means. The proof is in your comment accusing the USA of using lies. If that's true, they would set up a false interview just like this one. I've seen first hand how these people in Afghanistan and in Iraq work. Anyone who has, knows this video is a joke. Time to join reality and join the adult world SuleydamanNAIVE

[gpoyt]

@frfight

Ether heard of guantanamo? Ever seen the photo of the prisonner dressed in a black robe with electric cables atached to his fingers? Ever heard of the secret US prisons in the middle east, where real abuse is happening such as (forcing them to act like dogs, to imitate sex position, and other stuff).

Search.

[frfight]

I like how you make a comment of a "secret US prisons in the middle east".... I assume you've been there, right?... didn't think so. You're just one of the bleeding heart sheep that likes to follow false information. I was overseas to both Iraq and Afghanistan... guess what? No secret prisons. You need to do some better research buddy.

[gpoyt]

@frfight

First watch this, the prisons i have talked about haved been investigated by journalists, confirmed by some soldiers, and as usual covered poorly by George Bush's lies on them.

watch?v=cb50-ouA-IA

Then go to google, click on images, type guantanamo torture: then just look at the first page, its hapening now.

Look at those smiling faces, still PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN CITIZEN AND DEFENDER...i think not.

Nations are illusion, you are first human, from earth,and even universe.

[blackmassus]

@gpoyt F*ck you !

[gpoyt]

@blackmassus

Thank you. You will undersand some day.

[blackmassus]

Youre not awake your still believing in the afterlife. Religion is a weapon, the perfect weapon to mind control. Free your mind and you shall understand the system.

[gpoyt]

@blackmassus

You do not know me, know what i think, you know none of me.

And just for giggles, im recieving system-life knowledge from a guy who says:

"Fuck you" "Fuck Taliban we should nuke em" "Fuck Allah"

Give me a break

Type in youtube search : Message from Arecibo - Mooncake

Maybe that'll make you more humble.
