Fox analyst suggests Taliban kill captured soldier
Fox news analyst suggests Taliban kill captured soldier Bowe Bergdahl. Lt. Col. Ralph Peters makes the claim that Pfc. Bergdahl is a "deserter" and that "if he walked away from his post and his buddies in wartime — I don’t care how hard it sounds — as far as I’m concerned the Taliban can save us a lot of legal hassles and legal bills,” What is quite disgusting over the remarks, is that Peters initially stated that all of the facts were not out yet. Bergdahl, now 23 was declared 'missing-captured" on July 3rd and the details have not been released yet. That said, regardless of the details, Bergdahl is a young American soldier, and for the never ending debate over "support the troops" this remark is vile and irresponsible.
Peters makes the suggestion that Bergdahl "collaborated with the enemy" while noting that the facts are not out. Fox does not even call him on his gross accusations.
