Abdulrahman al-Awlaki was someone’s child too

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.”
– Joseph Goebbels

Barack Obama has refused to apologize for releasing the terrorist Dream Team. That ought to surprise no one. Obama has never apologized for anything, let alone his monumental “you can keep your plan” lie. It was widely reported that he apologized, but he most certainly did not. He said:

“I am sorry that they are finding themselves in this situation based on assurances they got from me,”

He’s sorry that people did not understand his brilliance. He’s not sorry that he lied. Lying is in his DNA. He’s programmed to lie.

Describing his capitulation to the Taliban, Obama made a couple of interesting statements. He said of Bergdahl:

“This is somebody’s child.”

Abdulrahman al-Awlaki was also someone’s child but Obama killed him. In 2011 Obama killed the 16 year old American, his cousin and five other civilians who were someone’s children.

My grandson was killed by his own government. The Obama administration must answer for its actions and be held accountable. On Friday, I will petition a federal court in Washington to require the government to do just that.

Abdulrahman was born in Denver. He lived in America until he was 7, then came to live with me in Yemen. He was a typical teenager — he watched “The Simpsons,” listened to Snoop Dogg, read “Harry Potter” and had a Facebook page with many friends. He had a mop of curly hair, glasses like me and a wide, goofy smile

Obama has killed approximately 200 of someone’s children. He has killed them every bit as much as he killed Bin Laden.

The other thing that caught my eye was this quote:

“We don’t leave men and women in uniform behind.”

Well that explains it. Chris Stevens, Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty weren’t wearing uniforms when Obama left them to die in Benghazi.

Bergdahl walked away from his post. That is not in question. There are reports that Bergdahl collaborated with the Taliban.

U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl at one point during his captivity converted to Islam, fraternized openly with his captors and declared himself a “mujahid,” or warrior for Islam, according to secret documents prepared on the basis of a purported eyewitness account and obtained by Fox News.

The reports indicate that Bergdahl’s relations with his Haqqani captors morphed over time, from periods of hostility, where he was treated very much like a hostage, to periods where, as one source told Fox News, “he became much more of an accepted fellow” than is popularly understood. He even reportedly was allowed to carry a gun at times.

The documents show that Bergdahl at one point escaped his captors for five days and was kept, upon his re-capture, in a metal cage, like an animal. In addition, the reports detail discussions of prisoner swaps and other attempts at a negotiated resolution to the case that appear to have commenced as early as the fall of 2009.

The Obama regime continues to peddle the hero narrative.

The NY Times has decided that no one was killed looking for Bergdahl.

This duck-and-cover response is the result of the outrageous demonization of Sergeant Bergdahl in the absence of actual facts. Republican operatives have arranged for soldiers in his unit to tell reporters that he was a deserter who cost the lives of several soldiers searching for him. In fact, a review of casualty reports by Charlie Savage and Andrew Lehren of The Times showed there is no clear link between any military deaths and the search.

This is Sgt. 1st Class Mark Allen and his family.

Allen was allegedly shot in the brain during an alleged search for the allegedly missing Bowe Bergdahl.

This is a must read:

Here is what I know, not from hearsay, but because I was there. Bergdahl became a sympathizer, walked off his post to seek out the Taliban in order to join their ranks, to help and live with them. In exchange for his release, the United States released the following 5 known Taliban; Khairullah Khairkhwa, Mullah Norullah Noori, Mullah Norullah Noori, Abdul Haq Wasiq, Mohammed Nabi who were immediately welcomed back into the Taliban network. The Taliban are currently seeking the release of additional prisoners, but will not state specifics. Now that they have the blue print on how to accomplish this by simply capturing an American soldier and with the troop number drawing down to 9,800+, I can only hope our service men and women keep their heads on a swivel.

Susan Rice continues to stand by her comment that Bowe Bergdahl served with “honor and distinction.”

I have never heard her say that about Glen Doherty, Tyrone Woods or Mark Allen. They were someone’s children too, but Bowe Bergdahl is the hero.

There has to be a poster of Josef Goebbels in every office in the White House.
