Topics
叙述者:本集探讨了伯格达尔事件的来龙去脉,以及各方如何利用该事件进行政治操作。事件的政治化是不可避免的,但其处理方式存在严重缺陷。白宫的玫瑰园仪式处理方式欠妥,加剧了事件的政治化,并激怒了许多军人。媒体报道中充斥着未经证实的信息,进一步加剧了事件的混乱。国会对白宫未提前通知释放消息表示不满,认为其违反了法律,并修改了相关法律。伯格达尔的战友们对政府的处理方式表示强烈不满,认为伯格达尔是逃兵,应该为其行为负责。 Cody Full:伯格达尔是逃兵。 Jerold Sutton:伯格达尔逃兵,他曾试图让人们重视此事,但未成功。 伯格达尔的战友们:伯格达尔应该为其行为负责。 Mike Wals:白宫的玫瑰园仪式处理方式欠妥,加剧了事件的政治化。 Nathan:被释放的五名塔利班成员对美国构成的威胁有限,此前美国也曾释放过危险性更高的囚犯。 Carol Rosenberg:被释放的五名塔利班成员未经正常的审查流程,政府可能故意绕过审查流程。 Mac Thornberry:国防部未提前通知国会伯格达尔释放的消息,破坏了国防部与国会的合作关系。 Adam Smith:伯格达尔事件导致国会修改了关塔那摩囚犯转移的相关法律。
