Father of American Soldier Freed From Taliban Deletes a Very Disturbing Tweet

On Saturday morning the Obama administration happily announced that we were now negotiating with terrorists and that Bowe Bergdahl would be freed in an agreement with the Taliban that would allow five dangerous terrorists to be released from Guantanamo Bay. Bowe’s father Bob Bergdahl appeared with Obama for the announcement:

To every single person who worked so hard to make this recovery possible, WE LOVE YOU! GOD IS GREAT AND HIS MERCY ENDURES FOREVER! — Robert Bergdahl (@bobbergdahl) May 31, 2014

But, as many have pointed out, he deleted this very controversial tweet he had posted a few days ago:

Here’s one person who caught it:

@FLOTUS did President Obama see this…happy his son his home bad timing on @bobbergdahl part to tweet this… pic.twitter.com/wWvKn4zSBM — Alexa (@TrotAlex) June 1, 2014

In addition to this, he also tweeted without deletion about the “cult of Democracy”:

@daqeqa Agree! "Democracy" is a cult in the West. I think most of afgs see law in terms of sharia not secular democracy, man centric laws — Robert Bergdahl (@bobbergdahl) March 29, 2014

Given that there’s a lot of doubt being cast on the official story, how does this change the calculation on whether Obama should have completed this trade?
