Taliban supreme leader Mullah Mohammad Omar Sunday hailed the release of five senior insurgents in exchange for US soldier Bowe Bergdahl as a “big victory”.
“I extend my heartfelt congratulations to the entire Afghan Muslim nation, all the mujahideen and to the families and relatives of the prisoners for this big victory regarding the release of five Taliban leaders from Guantanamo prison,” he said in a rare statement.
“I thank the government of Qatar, especially its emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad (Al Thani), who made sincere efforts for release of these leaders and for their mediation and for hosting them,” he added.

Bergdahl taught the Taliban everything he knew, and they didn’t need him any more. They wanted the Gitmo 5, they got the Gitmo 5. And BHO wrung some Rose Garden PR out of it.
All-around win for the bad side, wouldn’t you say?
Like Groucho said, the only upside to this mess is that these morons are usually killed on some battlefield within two weeks of getting out — and not that Ovomit has anything to do with it.
