He signed up and volunteered to fight a war for this country in Afghanistan. And I can’t say this enough, but regardless of the circumstances surrounding his capture, Bergdahl should be respected for putting on the military uniform and defending this country.
But respect has avoided the Army Sargent since his released from the Taliban and now, Republican nuts are targeting Berghdal’s parents with death threats.
The FBI is investigating threats against the parents of Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, the latest development in a case that has put the spotlight on the circumstances surrounding his capture in Afghanistan and release by the Taliban.
“We are working jointly with our state and local partners and taking each threat seriously,” FBI Special Agent William Facer told CNN in an e-mail on Saturday.
Facer declined to detail the nature and severity of the threats, and a military spokesperson for the Bergdahls declined to comment.
Bergdahl’s parents have not been seen publicly since the announcement last week that the soldier had been freed from five years in captivity at the hands of the Taliban in exchange for the release of five detainees at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base.
Republican nuts. They love the troops!
