What a SHAME, ...Snowden is a "Saint", ... Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl has ruined many lives with his poor decision.

Here is what Oliver North says, ... and in my opinion I find Mr. North very credible.

Oliver North: I Know a Ransom of $5-6 Million Was Paid to Free Bergdahl
on Breitbart TV
3 Jun 2014

Tuesday on NewsMax TV, former U.S. Marine Corps Lt. Col. Oliver North said U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl was not a prisoner of war because he was actually being held "hostage" by the Haqqanis, a terrorist group separate from the Taliban and associated heavily with al Qaeda.

North said he knew there was at least a $1 million dollar ransom being demanded for Bergdahl some time ago so he estimated the price paid to release the hostage must be close to $5-6 million now.

"Someone paid a ransom," North said. "Whether the Qataries paid it, or some big oil sheik, or somebody used our petrodollars, but there was a ransom paid in cash for each one of them, my guess somewhere in the round numbers of $5 or 6 million to get Bergdahl freed. I know that the offer that was on the table before was close to a million."
