After reading about the so called prisoner swap, there were other options that were in play before the prisoner swap. At one time the US was going to pay a ransom. <br /><br />I am not sure about the precedence here any more, however, why in the hell was there five prisoners released for one American prisoner. even more frustrating, the five released were all high risk prisoners. One report calls the the fab five of the terror cell they are associated with. <br /><br />That is what is dangerous about this. The administration is dumber than I thought if they think five of the worst of the Taliban is going to be good boys and do as they are told for a year. Bull crap. These terrorists will fall off the map before the scandal in Washington over this gets fully heated, and from what I seen, it is cooking fast. <br /><br />Bottom line, this was the mother of all stupidity by the administration.Response by LCpl Steve Wininger made Jun 5 at 2014 1:23 AM2014-06-05T01:23:51-04:002014-06-05T01:23:51-04:002014-06-05T01:09:51-04:00
