#5 The regime's flawed logic is inescapable; points for emptying GITMO, extra point for POW release and media distraction....epic fail all around.

I surmise there was a likely 'overseas' component to this as well, possibly a "player to be named later," or some sort of information exchange in the Klingon/striped-pants manner.

#7 You may remember the Taliban video footage of the Bergdahl release

I surmised that both sides were prepared to 'play' each other at varying degrees for the benefit of their respective audiences. That said, it's more likely that the theatrics, much like the welfare of the exchangee, were secondary to whatever the administration hoped to achieve.

#10 Meanwhile, Michelle Rodriguez + Black Widow + SAN ANDREAS Fans, NOT to be outdone by CUBA + GITMO ...

* BIGNEWSNETWORK > [New York Post] CHINA IS GAMBLING OBAMA DOESN'T HAVE THE WILL TO RESPOND TO ITS MASSIVE LAND GRAB [South China Sea].

Again, IMO as an Anti-American Amerikan = Anti-US US OWG Globalist, POTUS Obama is following a pre-determined/established National-Geopol agenda where the US itself is the proverbial tip-of-the-spear in setting up Anti-US OWG-NWO.

And where the Bammer's actions weirdly-n-mysteriously does not qualify as either HIGH TREASON NOR WORTH IMPEACHMENT BY OUR MIGHTY UNITARIAN CONGRESS.

THE PRIORITY OR FOCII IS MARXIST-COMMIE-GLOBALIST US, WORLD SOCIALIST ORDER, N-O-T US-SPECIFIC NATIONAL SECURITY - THE MORE ANARCHY-N-CHAOS INCLUD ISLAMIST-LED JIHAD THE BETTER.

* DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > THE SHOCKING REASON AMERICA CAN'T [Can't = Won't?] STOP CHINA IN THE SOUTH CHINA SEA.

* SAME > US TAKES A PASS FOR NOW IN SOUTH CHINA SEA DISPUTE | TIME.COM.

CHINA may had already won in the SCS???

#11 I'm beginning to wonder if "Leading From Behind" has alternate meanings.
