Not let make assumption and not all people are same.
I totally forgot to use Spanish after wrote in English all time, so not using the language could weaken the writing and reading.
Bergdahl has go thorough the rehabilitation to learn English and return to normal life.
What about the dad, he was making assumption too about his son and you could see the son talking in English when he was a POW . He said very clearly that he wanted to go home . I heard nothing on the news saying he does not understand how to speak English anymore , if that was the case we would had heard something by now.
The long-planned "Welcome Back, Bowe" celebration, planned for June 28 in Hop Porter Park, was canceled Wednesday amid growing claims by Bergdahl's fellow soldiers that he deserves no honor.
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.
While he understood the need for urgency, King said the administration made a mistake by failing to notify Congress before the exchange.
"I think clearly that was something that they should have done," he said.
“That did not sell me at all," said Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.). "The proof of life was basically five months ago. December? At that time he was impaired. That is not the person that was released here. He was not in that type of dire situation when he was released.”
The Associated Press, citing interviews with three unnamed congressional officials, also reported Thursday that the Obama administration told senators it didn't notify Congress about the deal because the Taliban had threatened to kill Bergdahl if the deal was made public before it occurred.
