Didnt have a problem doing it, but i would find it strange if there was any less disagreement over the how much one enjoyed having to do it or whether or not we should have done it . I would be surprised if there wasnt that disagreement in the military. One of the things i find odd right here is seems like no one is disagreeing with the principle. It was just how it was handled, how it was handled, you know, saying he was a hero, given the rose garden deal and all that. It doesnt seem line the principle is one correct me if im wrong. It sounds like the principle is one you agree with. Its the principle and the price we paid. I would argue well have to pay again to deal with these gentlemen in the future. And congressman, i think that it was a good price, and i think it was worth the risk to get Sergeant Bergdahl back home. Thank you, mr. Chairman. The chair recognizes the gentleman from florida, mr. Desantis. You said, well, maybe they thought beheading bergdahl would have been better,
Jerry, please go but i know where it is. Caller thank you for taking my call. I have a question for the congressman and a followup. Congressman, do you think it would have been right to keep american soldiers giving up their lives and limbs to fight in that country without being immunized from prosecution by the Iraqi Government . Okay. Whats your followup, sir . Caller my followup is that all these republicans, mccain and graham and everybody, talking about barack blew it. He didnt get the status of forces agreement. The reason he didnt get the agreement, because the iranians and maliki wanted to keep the soldiers there without being immuni immunized. And thats why the talks broke down, sir. Jerry, i dont know in detail what your point excuse me, what you were saying. Ill just accept it, though. Youre right. The iranians and maliki did not want our military there. So therefore, i dont think the president had any other option but to do what its their country. Whether we like it or not,
Something that needs to go. Work withbe happy to you on it. Many expertsey, have said that had we left a residual force in iraq, a nato which american troops would have been a part, that would not have been able to make the gains that it made, nor it have had attempted to make those gains. Agree with that . Well, as you recall, senator, we actually recommended, our military advice was that we needed to remain partnered with the Iraqi Security forces longer. And that, so i stand by that recommendation. Ago. Part of it years the size of it was being negotiated, but i was very much needed toe we continue to partner with them. Ourremember that partnership was on the basis of increasing their tactical logistics, their capability, their ability to be a responsible institution of government. Is that thetoday government has not acted responsibly in iraq. And i dont know that the presence of u. S. Military personnel uniquely would have outcome. He but you stand by your initial recommendation th
