Alex Quade Exclusive: Spec Ops capture & release of Taliban for Bergdahl
2014-08-22
[Alex Quade] The story behind the Special Operations Forces’ capture of one of the Taliban-5. Quade persuaded the elite Operators to go on the record, assess the high risk detainee’s exchange for POW, Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, and whether the released Taliban leader will attack U.S. interests again. One highly decorated Green Beret who originally helped capture him, is now a counterterrorism head, who worked behind the scenes on the exchange. His former Special Operations Forces “Horse Soldiers” teammates share details with Alex, you’ve never heard. In Quade’s exclusive, you’ll discover the Taliban leader’s connection to: convicted “American Taliban” Johnny Walker Lindh, and CIA Agent, Mike Spann — the first American killed in action in the war in Afghanistan. You’ll also learn of the released Taliban leader’s ties to notorious former warlord, Gen. Abdul Rashid Dostum – currently a vice presidential candidate in Afghanistan.
Some very interesting dots connected.
