Alex Quade persuaded the elite Operators to go on the record, assess the "high risk" detainee's exchange for POW, Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl; and whether the released Taliban leader will attack U.S. interests again. One highly decorated Green Beret who originally helped capture him, is now a National Security Council counterterrorism head, who worked behind the scenes on the recent exchange. The senior Special Forces officer tells Alex of detainee Mullah Muhammad Fazl's release from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba; and assesses the government of Qatar's ability to hold Fazl under the one year travel ban. Former Special Operations "Horse Soldiers" share details with Alex, you've never heard before. In Alex Quade's exclusive, you'll discover Mullah Fazl's connection to: convicted "American Taliban" Johnny Walker Lindh; and CIA Agent Mike Spann, the first American killed in action in the war in Afghanistan. You'll also learn of the released Taliban leader's ties to former warlord, Gen. Abdul Rashid Dostum - now the Vice President of Afghanistan. Written by Alex Quade See less
