>> set your dvrs, six of bergdahl's platoon members on what really happened that night. welcome to hannity and this is a fox news alert. more and more details don't emerge about the night that sergeant bowe bergdahl reportedly walked off his base and was captured by the taliban in afghanistan and tonight sources are telling fox news that bergdahl left a note explaining he's disillusioned with the u.s. army and in particularly being an american. despite the growing questions surrounding bergdahl's capture in 2009 president obama defended his administration's decision. let's take a look. >> regardless of the circumstances, whatever those circumstances may turn out to be, we still get an american

soldier back if he's held in captivity. period. >> now president obama is in poland on a four day european trip and for more reaction we turn to ed henry. >> reporter: good evening, sean. the bottom line is the president is here in europe all the week assure nervous allies the u.s. will be there if russia invades more countries. also trying to say look the situation in ukraine is turning around but instead he's dealing with this fresh crisis back home a crisis in confidence because not just on this foreign policy issue not just republicans but democrats charging the president broke the law by not giving congress a 30 day notice about this prisoner swap. the president today at a news conference here in warsaw tried to start mounting some push back by saying number one the key rule here to him is that the safety of an american soldier is the most important aspect of it. you also heard him say the

circumstances basically don't matter. he went on to say even if these five taliban commanders wind up back in the battlefield, the administration will hunt them down. the republican john mccain said that's a curry now way to run foreign policy. >> i wouldn't do that if i thought it was contrary to american national security and we have confidence that we will be i position to go after them if, in fact, they are engaging in activities that threaten our defenses. >> i don't think the american people want their lives of their men and women in the military at risk on the premise that we could go after them again. is that the american national security policy? >> in fact "the washington post," abc news out with a new poll today suggesting the president's handling of foreign policy has dropped down to an all time low of 41% and on top of that this fresh crisis, bottom line sue have the cop two senators on the intelligence committee, republican saxby

chambliss but also importantly democrat diane feinstein saying they were not notified in advance of this swap, they believe the law was broken. particularly diane feinstein said she got a letter of apology from the administration after the fact but she and other lawmakers will be digging in. >> the dream team, the taliban terrorists seem to be received as heroes, they seem to be running free, i don't see them in shackles or in prison and more importantly the president today did contradict jay carney's statement from yesterday which was hey they are not a threat. the president acknowledged they were a threat the recidivism rate is high. >> the president said something extraordinary. he said he realizes these five prisoners may go back to launch jihad. but said that the u.s. will be monitoring them basically and will stay on top of it. the problem among others is that a senior official told lawyers after hearing that statement

from the president, in fact, these prisoners will be moving around freely in qatar, the country in middle of getting these prisoners released from the guantanamo bay, and that number two after a year they are going to be able to leave qatar and, in fact, senior gulf official today saying that these five taliban prisoners can in a year go back to the battlefield in afghanistan which would be remarkable turn of events. >> ed thanks so much and especially for getting up so early in the morning to us. we have more details from the pentagon about this note that sergeant bergdahl threat night authenticate walked off the base in afghanistan five years ago. jennifer. >> reporter: sean, according to members of bergdahl's unit there was a letter left behind by him in which he talked about being disillusioned with the army and wanting to renounce his citizenship. that's the characterization of the letter by those who have seen it. the letter has not been provided

to us. some officials who have been briefed say they are not aware of any letter. that investigation did conclude, however, berg detaille with willfully walked off base. the army reached out to former members of bergdahl's unit to question them as part avenue investigation announced by the army secretary today and the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff today said he would not rule out investigating bergdahl for desertion. general martin dempsey urged people not to rush to judgment. quote in response to those of you interested in my personal judgments about the recovery of sergeant bowe bergdahl, the questions about this particular soldier's conduct are separate from our efforts to recover any u.s. service member in enemy captivity. this was likely the best opportunity to free him. as for the circumstances of his capture, when he's able to provide them we'll learn the facts like any american he's

innocent until proven guilty. our army's leaders will not look away from misconduct if it occurred. bergdahl has not yet cell phone his parents and the army chief has not issued any statement since bergdahl's release. >> jennifer, two very odd things. one the father said i don't think my son is used to speaking english, and he spoke to him in what he thought was the language he would understand which was a form of arabic and this letter just to be fair here is separate and apart from temp mail he wrote to his parents where he said i'm ashamed to be an american the horror that is america is disgusting. >> according to his unit mates. again it was not part of that large army investigation that took place in 2010, sean. >> jennifer as always thanks so much. a senior defense official confirms tonight that at times the military did have quote good indications about where sergeant bergdahl was being held by the

taliban. according to a report in the "the washington times" special commanders shelved rescue missions because they didn't want to risk casualties for a man they believed to be a desert. guy taylor is here. what can you tell us? >> thanks. it's kind of perplexing to watch this unfold because the case of bowe bergdahl has been really very well-known within the clandestine community within washington the special forces community for really the last five years since he walk off. u.s. special forces have known since the beginning that that's what happened, that he had left his post. ultimately had drawn up rescue missions after the first three months when a handful of patrols in searches for him had been somewhat disastrous leading to, resulting in the death of about six u.s. soldiers in southeastern afghanistan, they

were directly related to the searches. moving up the chain of command special force over the course of the next year and a half figured out roughly where he was and began drawing up mission plans to do a clandestine commando raid to take him. even coming down to figuring out to the number of soldiers, haqqani network, militants who were guarding him. those mission plans were ultimately shelved because there was a sense that the price of u.s. blood, the combat that would likely result was too high forgoing after someone who is deemed by the pentagon to have walked away from his post. you have to ask yourself if an american backpacker who wasn't involved in the u.s. military had gone missing in afghanistan around the same time and then been found to be held by the taliban or the haqqani network would the most elite special forces soldiers launch a commando raid and try to rescue

that backpacker and i think you would find the answer is no. >> and this raises the question i spoke to the mother who lost one of her sons, she's very angry tonight. guy, thank you. for more on this developing story we turn to fox's own leah gabrielle. you served in the military. >> yes. >> so, you were a navy fighter pilot. flu f-18s. let me start with the father then we'll go the son. first let's go the father in the rose garden while he was there, literally citing the koran. let's take a listen to what he said. >> i would like to say to bowe right now who is having trouble speaking english -- [ speaking foreign language ] >> i'm your father, bo. people of afghanistan, the same. >> before i get to more -- problems speaking english? that's odd to me. >> it seems really strange but you mentioned i was an f-18 pilot. i served as an intelligence

operator in afghanistan. i was north of where bergdahl was picked up. i had experience working with the afghan people. i do understand a little bit about how he may have been trying to show some solidarity with the afghan people. >> his son is released and he went on to use a phrase to thank allah in all of this. that was odd to me at the moment. his son is pr. >> it's odd. it may be misguided. we don't know what was in his head. this is a father missing his son for many years. he says that he was just trying to relate to his son. at this point i'm waypointing to hear more. >> maybe it's more applicable. let's go to 2011. he put together a video. he mentions the koran. here's part of what he said. >> strangely to some you must also thank those who have cared for our son for almost two years.

the had a canies and others who played a role in sheltering the american prisoner. we know our son is a prisoner and at the same time a guest in your home. we have wept that god may show his mercy and his peace may come on the people of pakistan. [ speaking foreign language ] >> earlier he said you have lost much and i feel sorry four loss but the loss he's talking about are those terrorists that want to kill americans. >> this is very upsetting and for anybody that lost a child that was on a mission that was potentially to recover him it's very upsetting. there needs some sensitivity here. these videos he's making are propaganda like videos of bowe bergdahl by the taliban that's propaganda. >> that's applicable in 9/11 but not the rose garden. >> we don't know what's happened with his father.

it seems as though he's kind of gone native in this effort to get his son back. >> he tweet ad post just days before his son was released, knowing this is coming where he says i'm working to free all gitmo prisoners. god will repay for the death of every afghan child. i'm reading this what about every american that lost their life in this effort. >> absolutely. this has got to be very offensive to people who lost their children, their fathers, their husband, their brothers, their sisters. this has got to be very offensive to them and certainly to anyone who served. again i go back to this is a man who lost his son and i just -- i would be careful to criticize him too hard for any efforts he made to get his son back. >> let's go to the e-mail he sent to his parents. this is in june of 2009. u.s. army is the biggest joke. the world has to laugh at. it's the army of liar, back stabber, fools and bullies and goes on to say the few good

sergeants are getting out as soon as they can and telling us privates to do the same. then he also said, "new york post" reported i'm sorry for everything here. these people need help. yet what they get is the most conceited country in the world telling them they are nothing, they are stupid. i'm ashamed to be an american and the title of u.s. soldier is a lie of fools. i'm sorry for everything, america is disgusting. from your background being in the navy, being an f-18 fighter pilot we lost six americans looking for what is a deserter by every indication and everybody that was looking for him i talked to these guys well-known he was a deserter. was that a mistake a, to make this trade and b, go out searching for them? >> this looks bad. this is something that any parent who has lost a child, this is something that's going to be very upsetting. if you remember his father also wrote back to him, obey your

conscience. that's three days before he left. there's a lot of information that i would like to know about. what was this guy doing. was he a deserter. was he trying to join the taliban. >> the recidivism rate at gitmo 6.5. >> this is the biggest questions why these five people for him. there really needs be so very solid evidence for the decision, why they decided to give up these five guys. i spoke with a former cia officer that i served with in afghanistan today who said this is such a problem because we worked so hard to find these guys, to capture them, to keep them off the battlefield. and for them to go right back out there. >> put these five back up. my prediction and i pray i'm wrong, my prediction all five of these go back to the battlefield. that's why they were hand chosen by the taliban. thank you so much. all your service too. coming up, was sergeant

bergdahl, was he a deserter and coming up next you'll hear directly from someone who served beside him and you'll hear from bowes roommate and former dance instructor. honestly, the off-season isn't really off for me. i've got a lot to do. that's why i got my surface. it's great for watching game film and drawing up plays. it's got onenote, so i can stay on top of my to-do list, which has been absolutely absurd since the big game. with skype, it's just really easy to stay in touch with the kids i work with. alright, russell you are good to go! alright, fellas. alright, russ. back to work! ♪ yeah ♪ don't stop now, come on mony ♪ come on, yeah

welcome back. there's mounting evidence tonight that newly released sergeant bowe bergdahl was not only a deserter but according to defense department officials he may have been collaborating with the enemy. my next guest is speaking out about his platoon mate. joining me is specialist john corneliusson. thank you for being with us. >> thank you for having me. >> everybody i talked to believed he deserted. is there any dispute about that? >> no. he deserted his post willfully and purposely. >> as far as we know in a talked to the parents of associate that lost their son earlier today, they are angry because why were we searching for a desert. we lost six !rsózpeople, six amn service people searching for a deserter. >> yeah. it doesn't make any sense whatsoever. we spent 90 days after he immediately left and there was extra assets brought over to us and there was increased activity

on the ground and it made it very easy for the taliban to pick and choose what targets they wanted to hit and it was just a field day for them with so many extra units in the area. >> what about jennifer griffith was reporting earlier he wanted to renounce his american citizenship. there was a letter left, do you know for sure? >> i don't know of any letter that was left like that. i don't. >> what do you think of the e-mail he wrote his father he was ashamed of being an american, the horror that america is disgusting. >> it goes to show he wasn't satisfied with being in the army and that he wanted to get away and by getting away he willfully and purposely and premeditated left his post and left me and my platoon and walked away under his own will and conscience. >> when these other platoon members died searching for him, what was the reaction of your platoon? >> very, very frustrating because here we are wasting so

much more extra energy and time and blood, sweat and tears for someone who purposely walked away and didn't want to be found. he didn't don't found. we were chasing a ghost around eastern afghanistan for at least 90 days immediately following his disappearance. >> were you told not to discuss this publicly at the time? >> there wasn't enough time. we were busy driving from information spot to information spot, from village to village. we didn't have enough time to talk about anything. and the little time we did get back on army bases we had tosig wouldn't talk about it. >> you had to sign a document. >> yes, sir. >> wow. what is your reaction, these are -- they are calling at any time dream team the taliban five. what is your reaction in this trade that the president made? >> it's very frustrating. i'm not going to comment too much on the dream team five but bergdahl being traded for these

five taliban individuals and then coming back to the united states and being treated as a hero, that's incredibly frustrating, incredibly infuriating because there are men and women who, especially men who i knew in afghanistan who died looking for him. those are the heroes. bergdahl who walked away, who decertain his post, he's not a her sk hero. >> you want him court martialed. >> he needs to go through the proper channels that any other deserter would go through. he needs to be held 100% accountable for his actions. >> thank you for serving your country. i'm sorry you lost platoon members over this. i appreciate you telling your story. thank you, sir. joining me now is a friend and former roommate of sergeant bergdahl and also his former ballet instructor sherri horton. thank you for being here. >> thank you, very much. >> i didn't know until today

that he took ballet. how long did he do that? >> he started taking ballet when he was about 17 and continued taking until he was about 22, 23. >> did he ever express any opinions about america that you found troubling? >> not the entire time we were room mates. i didn't have any of these conversations with him at all. >> what about the decision when he decided to sign up and serve in the military. what was his reason? >> you know what? we went to lunch one day and told me he sign up and leaving within 24 to 48 hours to go to basic training and i wasn't surprised by his decision to do this. it was something that i think he felt he wanted to do and should do. so it wasn't a surprise decision when he told me about it. >> how well did you know his family, his father? >> i met them and became closer to them after he was captured. before that i knew -- we knew

because of being room mates i knew his parents. but i have become a little bit closer to them since this whole thing started. >> what is your reaction when you hear the father praising allah in the rose garden and wanting more gitmo detainee, terrorists who killed americans freed, what is your reaction when you hear that the person you were so close to he's ashamed of being an american and america is disgusting. what's your reaction to that? >> you know, i don't know what to think. i don't know his state of mind at that point, was it somebody being frustrated with their job because as i have said before, you know, we always look at the military in a different light. but when you join the military that is your job. and i'm not sure any american, any person in general has ever been 100% satisfied with their job and not had a bad day where they have said they wanted to quit, they wanted to kill their boss, they wanted to do

whatever. you know, we all have those days on our job and that's basically what his was. >> when you hear that your friend was a deserter as we just heard from one of his platoon mates, and you hear that other men died searching for him and you hear these comments that he made, does that change your opinion of him? >> you know, until i hear what actually happened and what was going on, you know, at that time, i'm reserving judgment. i'm very sorry for anyone who lost their life. i'm very sorry for anyone who lost their life any time during this war and those before. but until we know what actually happened and someone can talk to him i'm reserving judgment -- >> even though almost everybody he served with said he was a deserter you're not believing them? >> you know, i can have an opinion and say what i want too and yes he did walk off the base

so my technicality that makes him one. we don't know the circumstances. >> but he did write his father he's ashamed to be an american, that america is disgusting. >> i believe that. but like i said, you know, i don't know his frame of mind at the time. i don't know maybe if it was something he had just gone through pretty horrific experience that he had just seen. maybe there was something that snapped or broke that needed to be fixed that maybe somebody on the base at this time overlooked. >> okay thank you for being with us. >> we won't know until we talk to him. >> up next hillary clinton is defending the administration's efforts to negotiate with terrorists. i'll ask rick perry to respond to that. also colonel oliver north and dan a perino. try alka seltzer reliefchews. they work just as fast and are proven to taste better than tums smoothies assorted fruit. mmm. amazing.

>> welcome back. last night hillary clinton made her stance on this bergdahl prisoner exchange. >> a lot of our closest allies do prisoner exchanges to get our p.o.w.s back all the time. the idea that you really care for your own citizens and particularly those in uniform i think is a very noble one. >> there was reaction, texas governor rick perry may be facing her in 2016. is this the equivalent, governor of what difference does it make if he was a deserter?

>> well, sean, we hear that too often out of this administration about what difference does it make and i think the american citizens are getting tired of that. frankly men and women in the military are losing confidence in this administration's ability to conduct foreign policy in an appropriate way. here's the bigger concern for me and i really would like for somebody to take a look at this and answer it. was this done to take the va off the front page of the newspapers? absolute debacle that we've seen this administration not taking care of the men and women of our military and this kind of happened all of a sudden it seems like. congress didn't even know about it when diane feinstein and the republican counterpart are both saying that laws of our country were broken by the president not even giving them any indication they were going to do this. the question is what is this strategy here?

what is the foreign policy that's going into place here. it is haphazard. whatever we need to do to move a press story a day to get something off the front page of the papers? i don't know. it's troubling. you see the president of the united states -- >> i spoke to darrin andrews from your state of texas. he lost his life searching for a man that everybody knew had deserted because i've spoken tom, many people in his platoon. i spoke with his mother today. his wife who gave birth to their daughter three months after he died and had a 2-year-old son from dallas. gave his life looking for him. they knew he was a deserter. is that a mistake and what do you think of the trade itself? >> well, obviously, this is incredibly troubling. if the military leadership, if the administration did not have a better handle on this when we hear all of these conflicting stories out there, there's a

letter, there's this -- >> they did know. >> and they still went forward with this there's a lot of questions that's incredibly troubling to the american people and this is not going well for this administration at all. they need to come clean, tell us what happened, tell us why they really went forward with this. and why did they circumvent the laws as we discussed earlier. >> absolutely. >> these are the five worse at gitmo. these were hard core terrorists. >> and that gets to the real core of the foreign policy debacle that's going on out there. every american citizen, every man and woman in uniform now is going to be trade bait for people like the taliban and if that's how we're is going to be conducting foreign policy in the future i think we got big, big problems in front of us. >> governor, thank you so much for being with us. coming up next colonel oliver north knows a thing or two about this.

he'll join in. later the obama white house is now acknowledging they failed to inform congress about the bergdahl swap so is the president admitting now that he broke the law? we'll check in with our constitutional law professor. he'll answer that question and more. is america at a constitutional tipping point next. o your doctor about viagra. ask if your heart is healthy enough for sex. do not take viagra if you take nitrates for chest pain. it may cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure. side effects include headache, flushing, upset stomach, and abnormal vision. to avoid long term injury, seek immediate medical help for an erection lasting more than four hours. stop taking viagra and call your doctor right away if you experience a sudden decrease or loss in vision or hearing. this is the age of taking action. viagra. talk to your doctor. if your doctor decides viagra is right for you, you can fill your prescription at your pharmacy. or, check out viagra home delivery, a convenient place to fill your prescription online and have it shipped at no additional cost straight to your door. viagra home delivery.

defended the prisoner swap during a press conference. he was in possible land. take a look. >> this is what happens at the end of wars. that was true for george washington, that was true for abraham lincoln, that was true for fdr, that was true for every combat situation that at some point you make sure you try to get your folks back. >> here to respond fox news military analyst and war stories host our friend colonel oliver north. i spoke to the mother of dana andrews. this kid had a 3-year-old daughter born three months after he was killed arc 2-year-old son he left behind and told him about the freedom alliance and you would give them a call and i you know will. >> for that scholarship. thank you. >> i said that to the mother. i don't even know what to say any more. it takes maway. >> first of all that's the bracelet of bowe bergdahl with the state of capture, 30 june, 2009. i've worn ever since he was captured and his mother gave me

this bracelet. >> you were wearing that bracelet the whole time? >> oh, yeah. yeah. i've had it on literally nonstop. it's now off. let me make a couple of quick points. first of all, unlike what mrs. clinton said or chuck hey fwel said and this president said, bergdahl was not a prisoner of war held by the taliban. and he was hostage of a criminal enterprise, the haqqani network. the haqqanis have been taking hostages for ransom for decades. the sound bite you just played this is how wars end. that's true if we consummated some kind of agreement on ending the conflict and cited several examples that are all true. that the war was over. maybe this president things unilateral surrender is a way to end the war. here's some questions that need to be asked and answered. number one was a ransom paid to the haqqanis. because that's all they wanted in exchange for this guy for

years. if a ransom was paid either at our behest or with american tax dollars it means this government is funding a criminal enterprise that kills americans, the had a canies. why were the five kingpins were released. the question asked by rick perry is dead on. what assurance do we have that the qataris will prevent these five to return to the battlefield. does this president realize that having announced the terms of this exchange, every american not just those on the battlefield, every american traveling overseas becomes vulnerable to kidnapping and being held for ransom. now given the up roar over how sergeant bergdahl became a hostage a senior u.s. officer in the armed forces of the united states in his chain of command needs to stand up on his hind feet and convene an article 32

investigation. it's the only way, the only fairway to give sergeant bergdahl just miss. exonerate him or condemn him. do it under oath and article 32 which is the military equivalent of a grand jury and it's the fairest system of justice around. that's why i asked for a court martial when i was going through my ordeal back in the '80s and of course why the special prosecutor wasn't about to give me one. >> wasn't the ransom the five taliban guys they wanted? that's ransom. >> no. >> you think they wanted money too. >> look it. that's all they wanted. i know a lot about hostage negotiation. we don't need to get into all of that tonight. it's not right to say we never negotiated with the enemy. george washington did so. in the aftermath of the barbary wars, thomas jefferson beating the pirates in 1805, paid

$60,000 in ransom to the pasha to buy u.s. citizen from slavery. they never talk about it. ronald reagan didn't and this guy shouldn't have don't. it's a disaster. >> colonel we'll have you back tomorrow to talk more about this. you have some insight that others don't. coming up the white house is apologizing for failing to alert congress about the bergdahl swap. our constitutional professor is here to talk about the ramifications. dana is here to weigh in on the contradictions from the obama white house. did they lion numerous occasions regarding this? apparently they did. that's coming up straight ahead. ? osteo bi-flex® with joint shield™ nurtures and helps defend your joints° so you can keep doing what you love. what'd you guys do today? the usual! the usual!

welcome back to hannity. the obama white house is now acknowledging it did not properly inform congress before it made the bergdahl swap. diane feinstein told fox news the deputy national adviser called her to apologize for failing to inform her about the exchange. here now with the reaction, jonathan turly. you said it was illegal and said we're at a constitutional tipping point that this is basically standard fare for this

administration. >> unfortunately, sean, this has become something of a mantra from this administration that the president has decided he would not comply with federal law. even though one could agree with many of the policies as do i that this administration holds, the means that it is selecting are very troubling, that this president once again has said he simply chose not to comply with federal law. but more importantly the administration is all over the board on this. as this story has been unfolding we heard various justifications and rationale for failure to comply including a bizarre argument that they complied with the now ti if i occasion law by not notifying congress. >> we do have co-equal branches of government, separation of powers. you teach this regularly. you agree with the president politically. for to us say we're at a tipping point constitutionally -- i agree with you. what does that mean considering

our constitution is our rule of law and they are ignoring it? >> unfortunately our system is changing. it's changing without a debate. or even a discussion. what we're going to do in the future when we have a three branch system, a tri system but one branch is so dominant. what's an emerging an i believe perry all presidency, an uber presidency where the president can act unilateral. this is just the latest example of that. what's trouble is we have a system that has been stable precisely because these are limited and shared powers. this president has indicated that he's just not willing to comply with some of those aspects. he told congress he would go it alone and in our system you're not allowed to go it alone. >> if i broke the law why do i think they would be the first people to hand kickoff me, perp walk me and send me off to jail.

paranoia or truth? >> the biggest problem we have is that the system itself, if we have a dominant branch simply begins to shut down in terms of the safeguard. people don't seem to understand the separation of powers is not about the power of these branches it's there to protect individually better. >> that is what is occurring here. you know, i've said it before. barack obama is the president richard nixon wanted to be. he's been allowed to act u uniaterally in a way we have fought for decades >> coming up, weighing in on the mixed messages from team obama regarding the prisoner swap and more, as we continue. i had no idea i had shingles.

>> it's primary night in eight

states. the associated press is making a call in the g.o.p. senate primary in iowa, calling that race for state senator, joanie ernst. voting delayed a bit because of a severe storm. in mississippi, the real race here, mcdaniels. >> welcome back to "hannity" yesterday, jay carney claimed part of the prisoner swap were not a security threat now, the commander in chief contradicted and said absolutely there is a possibility they'll return to the battlefield. with reaction, troy murdock, and dana perino. how does jay carney say something one day and the president contradicts him the next day? >> it's a difficult thing to do. any time the president goes on a foreign trip, something bad is happening at home he needs to be paying more attention to. that is the case in this regard

i think the president had to say, after he did this, he had to say there is a possibility they'd go back to -- >> there is a possibility. >> yes. i refer to jay carney as baghdad carney. he's become a propagandaist at this point. >> i imagine after a year they may have to go to. they can get phone calls for money and get people all pumped up. they can do -- >> they could vanish. they can do a lot of damage just by sitting in offices and doing what they do. i'm sure they're going to do that. >> if jay carney said they're safe, that is a lie. idea they're going to be in prison and we'll be watching them? that is a lie. none of this is true. >> obama says this is what happens at the end of wars. you can stop prisoners. >> war is the war. imagine if we had in our

custody, would we send them back to germany? >> no. >> in 1943 or wait until the war is over before you swap prisoners? >> isn't this the philosophical divide the president doesn't recognize radical islamic terrorism is a real, clear and present danger to the united states? >> i think that we have to give him credit for things that have been done like the drone program. there is another report today, not only are the former guantanamo bay detainees free to go around qatar, there is assurance we'd not be following them. i told them that that is not true. >> the president says we'll keep an eye on them. but think about this, i didn't think that the objective in a war this, is a good war, he said we ought to be fighting, objective to get americans out, not -- >> supposed to win a war? >> to your point about what kind of a war is it? there is a war in afghanistan. but the bigger war, the war

where they're held, these are enemy combatants. the terrorists don't want our land. they hate our ideas so it's a different type of war. i'm not saying the president doesn't understand that, they're miscalculated the response. >> they thought they'd be heros. >> you're right this, is a big victory. this is described by a huge triumph for the mujahideen. >> he's right. islamic terrorists around the world are high fiving each other and laughing at us. thank you very much, barack obama. >> tomorrow night, the wife of one of the brave soldiers out looking for the sargeant is going to join us. by the way, the sarnlent is, in this case, a 3-year-old baby, was born while this, three months after the sargeant died

the personal story coming up on tomorrow night's show. go home, set your dvr. start your day with fox and friends 5:00 to 9:00. thanks for joining us. we'll see you back here. latest. good night from washington. the o'reilly factor is on. tonight: >> serve the united states with honor and distinction. >> he would be sergeant bowe bergdahl traded for five terrorists over the weekend. but there is compelling evidence the sergeant is a did i setterrer and -- deserter and drab brart. why is ambassador rice misleading the world again? we have a factor investigation. >> should be tried as a deserter and court martialled. i would personally like to see him in lebanon bon worth for the remainder of his days. >> some of sergeant bergdahl's fellow soldiers are bitter about his alleged dissession and at least six americans were killed searching for him. tonight, talk with the parents of one soldier who
