In May of 2014, then-President Barack Obama enthusiastically announced a highly controversial swap of five terrorists detained at a U.S. Military prison in Guantanamo Bay (AKA Gitmo) to the Taliban in exchange for Bowe Bergdahl, an Army sergeant who was suspected of desertion at the time and would later plead guilty to the act.
The five terrorists freed by the Obama administration have since joined the Taliban’s political office in Qatar, confirmed Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid to the Military Times on Tuesday.
