"They Googled me online..."


NYT reported David Rohde was held captive by the Taliban for seven months. Here he talks with Charlie Rose about his experience, his treatment there, and his views on "why they hate us."

Very interesting.

Addendum: pom has located the series of articles written by Rohde for the New York Times. The beginning of the first article is at this link.

  1. I watched this the night it aired. It had me glued to the set. I learned more watching just this than I did in months of MSM. Thanks for posting this.
