Among the five prisoners the Taliban have consistently requested are Khairullah Khairkhwa, a former Taliban governor of Herat, and Mullah Mohammed Fazl, a former top Taliban military commander, both of whom have been held for more than a decade.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yeah, I&#8217;ve heard the rumors about how Bergdahl came to be the Taliban&#8217;s prisoner in the first place, but there&#8217;s plenty of time to sort through that after we get him home. Whatever the circumstances were that led to his capture, he doesn&#8217;t deserve to be beheaded for it.
