John Walker Lindh, 'American Taliban' Captured in 2001, Freed From Prison","publishDate":1558570710,"format":"standard","headTitle":"KQED News","labelTerm":{"site":"news"},"content":"\u003cp>\u003cem>Updated 9 a.m. Thursday\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>John Walker Lindh, the Marin County man who became known as the \"American Taliban\" after he was captured by U.S. forces in the invasion of Afghanistan in late 2001, was released on Thursday after nearly two decades in prison.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But conditions imposed recently on Lindh's release make clear that authorities remain concerned about the threat he could pose once free.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lindh, now 38, was raised as Catholic, converting to Islam as a teenager after seeing the film \"Malcolm X\" and going overseas to study Arabic and the Quran. In November 2000, he went to Pakistan and from there made his way to Afghanistan. He joined the Taliban — an extremist Islamic movement that ruled Afghanistan at the time — and was with them on Sept. 11, 2001, when al-Qaida terrorists attacked the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The U.S. attacked Afghanistan after the country failed to turn over al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden. Lindh was captured in a battle with Northern Alliance fighters in late 2001. He was present when a group of Taliban prisoners launched an attack that killed Johnny Micheal \"Mike\" Spann, a CIA officer who had been interrogating Lindh and other Taliban prisoners.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='small' align='right' citation='Frank Lindh told KQED Forum host Dave Iverson in 2011']'I don't feel that John committed the kind of crimes he was accused of, and that many of your listeners and even you continue to believe that John committed. He did not commit terrorism, he never fought against the United States of America.'[/pullquote]Television footage of a bearded, wounded Lindh captured among Taliban fighters created an international sensation, and he was brought to the U.S. to face charges of conspiring to kill Spann and providing support to terrorists. Eventually, he struck a plea bargain in which he admitted illegally providing support to the Taliban but denied a role in Spann's death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lindh received a 20-year prison sentence. He served roughly 17 years and five months, including two months when he was in military detention. Federal inmates who exhibit good behavior typically serve 85 percent of their sentence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His probation officer asked the court to impose additional restrictions on Lindh while he remains on supervised release for the next three years.

Physically aching and psychologically wrecked after hundreds of combat missions, he left the military a few years short of the retirement requirement with no pension and no job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Navy SEALs go through a highly demanding selection process. They are selected for physical, mental and psychological qualities that are exceptional. The fact that this hero, with these qualities, cannot find employment is shocking to me,\" said retired Gen. Anthony Zinni, former commander in chief of U.S. Central Command.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like 820,000 other veterans, the Shooter has a disability claim that is stuck in a seemingly interminable backlog at the VA, where the average wait time currently exceeds nine months, based on the \u003ca href=\"http://cironline.org/reports/map-where-veterans-backlog-worst-3792\">agency’s own data\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The speedier special track for Special Forces veterans appears to have eluded him, and so his neck, back and eye injuries remain uncompensated, removing a chance for a modicum of financial stability.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since a required medical exam in August, which he said he attended in full dress uniform including his gold SEAL Trident and combat awards, the Shooter’s only communication from the VA has been computer-generated form letters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is our sincere desire to decide your case promptly. However, as we have a great number of claims, action on yours may be delayed,” reads one letter dated Dec. 10. “If we need anything else from you, we will contact you, so there is no need to contact us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fact that even bin Laden’s killer has to wait for his benefits “just underscores how much you’re squandering the talents of the generation,” said Paul Rieckhoff, founder and CEO of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is a widespread frustration with the inability of veterans to get their benefits when they come home, and that includes SEALS,” he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The VA did not immediately return calls seeking comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Calls and emails to the Pentagon, Naval Special Warfare Command and Special Forces were not immediately returned either. In a statement to NBC News, the Navy declined to either confirm or dispute the Shooter’s account.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We take seriously the safety and security of our people as well as our responsibility to assist sailors making the transition to civilian life,” the statement reads. “Without more information about this particular case, it would be difficult to determine the degree to which our transition programs succeeded.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the Shooter’s account of the May 2011 mission, bin Laden stood in front of him, an AK-47 within reach. The terrorist, he said, pushed his youngest wife, Amal, in front of him in the pitch-black room. The Navy SEAL, wearing night-vision goggles, had to raise his gun higher than he expected before shooting three bullets into bin Laden’s forehead at close range.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He looked confused. And way taller than I was expecting,” the Shooter said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In that moment, the Shooter said he felt a deep inner conflict, about whether he had done the right thing by killing the world’s most wanted man.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I remember as I watched him breathe out the last part of air, I thought: Is this the best thing I’ve done, or the worst thing I’ve ever done?” he said. “His forehead was gruesome. It was split open in a shape of a V. I could see his brains spilling out over his face. The American public doesn’t want to know what that looks like.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Shooter’s account differs from other descriptions of bin Laden’s death and contradicts some statements by Matt Bissonnette, another member of Navy SEAL Team 6. In his book, “No Easy Day,” Bissonnette said he stood directly behind the SEAL team’s point man when the point man shot bin Laden.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the Shooter, the point man took a shot or two at bin Laden when bin Laden peeked around a curtain in the hallway a floor above them, but even after that the terrorist leader was still standing and moving. The point man was not in the room when bin Laden was killed, the Shooter said, because he had tackled two women into the hallway, believing they were wearing suicide vests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was the most heroic thing I’ve ever seen,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Addressing the differences, CIR Executive Director Robert J. Rosenthal said: “The Shooter’s version of events is not the only one out there. But we believe his version of events is the most credible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Shooter does not dispute Bissonnette’s account that Bissonnette entered the third-floor room after bin Laden already was fatally wounded, and along with another SEAL, continued to fire shots into the al-Qaida leader until his body was torn apart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Together with Bronstein, the Shooter saw “Zero Dark Thirty,” the Oscar-nominated film by Kathryn Bigelow about the killing of bin Laden. While Bigelow “Hollywooded it up some,” most of the Shooter’s criticisms of the film were minor. The stairs inside bin Laden’s compound were not properly configured, he said, and none of the SEALs uttered the al-Qaida leader’s name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The mission in the damn movie took way too long,” the Shooter said. But the portrayal of “Maya,” the CIA operative who identified the complex where bin Laden was hiding, was right on target, he said, adding, “They made her a tough woman, which she is.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Shooter said the CIA operative broke down in tears at the sight of bin Laden’s body back at the Afghanistan base and that he gave her his magazine, which still contained 27 shots, as a souvenir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We looked down and I asked, ‘Is that your guy?’ ” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the raid in Abbottabad, Pakistan, the Shooter served one more deployment in Afghanistan and then left the military, a few years shy of his pension.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I wanted to see my children graduate and get married,” he said. He hoped to sleep through the night for the first time in years. “I was burned out,” he said. “And I realized that when I stopped getting an adrenaline rush from gunfights, it was time to go.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now out of the military, the Shooter has separated from his wife, but the two still live together for financial reasons. Since the raid in Abbottabad, the story says, “he has trained his children to hide in their bathtub at the first sign of a problem as the safest, most fortified place in their house.” He keeps a shotgun on the armoire and a knife on the dresser.

Is Screwed\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> (Esquire)\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>But perhaps the Shooter’s most explosive revelation is that nearly six months after leaving the military, he feels abandoned by the government. Physically aching and psychologically wrecked after hundreds of combat missions, he left the military a few years short of the retirement requirement with no pension and no job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Navy SEALs go through a highly demanding selection process. They are selected for physical, mental and psychological qualities that are exceptional. The fact that this hero, with these qualities, cannot find employment is shocking to me,\" said retired Gen. Anthony Zinni, former commander in chief of U.S. Central Command.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like 820,000 other veterans, the Shooter has a disability claim that is stuck in a seemingly interminable backlog at the VA, where the average wait time currently exceeds nine months, based on the \u003ca href=\"http://cironline.org/reports/map-where-veterans-backlog-worst-3792\">agency’s own data\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The speedier special track for Special Forces veterans appears to have eluded him, and so his neck, back and eye injuries remain uncompensated, removing a chance for a modicum of financial stability.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since a required medical exam in August, which he said he attended in full dress uniform including his gold SEAL Trident and combat awards, the Shooter’s only communication from the VA has been computer-generated form letters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is our sincere desire to decide your case promptly. However, as we have a great number of claims, action on yours may be delayed,” reads one letter dated Dec. 10. “If we need anything else from you, we will contact you, so there is no need to contact us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fact that even bin Laden’s killer has to wait for his benefits “just underscores how much you’re squandering the talents of the generation,” said Paul Rieckhoff, founder and CEO of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is a widespread frustration with the inability of veterans to get their benefits when they come home, and that includes SEALS,” he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The VA did not immediately return calls seeking comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Calls and emails to the Pentagon, Naval Special Warfare Command and Special Forces were not immediately returned either. In a statement to NBC News, the Navy declined to either confirm or dispute the Shooter’s account.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We take seriously the safety and security of our people as well as our responsibility to assist sailors making the transition to civilian life,” the statement reads. “Without more information about this particular case, it would be difficult to determine the degree to which our transition programs succeeded.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the Shooter’s account of the May 2011 mission, bin Laden stood in front of him, an AK-47 within reach. The terrorist, he said, pushed his youngest wife, Amal, in front of him in the pitch-black room. The Navy SEAL, wearing night-vision goggles, had to raise his gun higher than he expected before shooting three bullets into bin Laden’s forehead at close range.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He looked confused. And way taller than I was expecting,” the Shooter said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In that moment, the Shooter said he felt a deep inner conflict, about whether he had done the right thing by killing the world’s most wanted man.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I remember as I watched him breathe out the last part of air, I thought: Is this the best thing I’ve done, or the worst thing I’ve ever done?” he said. “His forehead was gruesome. It was split open in a shape of a V. I could see his brains spilling out over his face. The American public doesn’t want to know what that looks like.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Shooter’s account differs from other descriptions of bin Laden’s death and contradicts some statements by Matt Bissonnette, another member of Navy SEAL Team 6. In his book, “No Easy Day,” Bissonnette said he stood directly behind the SEAL team’s point man when the point man shot bin Laden.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the Shooter, the point man took a shot or two at bin Laden when bin Laden peeked around a curtain in the hallway a floor above them, but even after that the terrorist leader was still standing and moving. The point man was not in the room when bin Laden was killed, the Shooter said, because he had tackled two women into the hallway, believing they were wearing suicide vests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was the most heroic thing I’ve ever seen,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Addressing the differences, CIR Executive Director Robert J. Rosenthal said: “The Shooter’s version of events is not the only one out there. But we believe his version of events is the most credible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Shooter does not dispute Bissonnette’s account that Bissonnette entered the third-floor room after bin Laden already was fatally wounded, and along with another SEAL, continued to fire shots into the al-Qaida leader until his body was torn apart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Together with Bronstein, the Shooter saw “Zero Dark Thirty,” the Oscar-nominated film by Kathryn Bigelow about the killing of bin Laden. While Bigelow “Hollywooded it up some,” most of the Shooter’s criticisms of the film were minor. The stairs inside bin Laden’s compound were not properly configured, he said, and none of the SEALs uttered the al-Qaida leader’s name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The mission in the damn movie took way too long,” the Shooter said. But the portrayal of “Maya,” the CIA operative who identified the complex where bin Laden was hiding, was right on target, he said, adding, “They made her a tough woman, which she is.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Shooter said the CIA operative broke down in tears at the sight of bin Laden’s body back at the Afghanistan base and that he gave her his magazine, which still contained 27 shots, as a souvenir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We looked down and I asked, ‘Is that your guy?’ ” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the raid in Abbottabad, Pakistan, the Shooter served one more deployment in Afghanistan and then left the military, a few years shy of his pension.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I wanted to see my children graduate and get married,” he said. He hoped to sleep through the night for the first time in years. “I was burned out,” he said. “And I realized that when I stopped getting an adrenaline rush from gunfights, it was time to go.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now out of the military, the Shooter has separated from his wife, but the two still live together for financial reasons. Since the raid in Abbottabad, the story says, “he has trained his children to hide in their bathtub at the first sign of a problem as the safest, most fortified place in their house.” He keeps a shotgun on the armoire and a knife on the dresser. The military provides no protection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says his disability claim is less about the money it would provide than the right to free health care it would bring. While the VA now provides five years of virtually free health care to all honorably discharged Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, they can face bureaucratic nightmares later on if their conditions are not deemed service-connected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite 16 years serving his country, the Shooter says he has never accessed – or been informed of – unique services available to Special Forces veterans, including an effort called the Care Coalition launched by Special Operations Command in 2005.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Shooter also says he has seen no evidence that he has been routed through a special track for disability claims that the Department of Veterans Affairs set up for Special Forces veterans in 2009.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under this policy, if a veteran files a disability claim based on involvement in a secret mission, VA claims examiners are supposed to turn files over to a special liaison at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Fla., where Special Operations Command is located.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The move was meant to speed processing of claims by Special Forces veterans, who had difficulty proving their injuries were caused by military service because of the classified nature of their work.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/news/88709/phil-bronstein-profiles-navy-seal-who-killed-bin-laden","authors":["1367"],"programs":["news_6944"],"tags":["news_18544","news_740","news_205","news_80","news_3871","news_1324","news_3872"],"label":"news_6944"},"news_84709":{"type":"posts","id":"news_84709","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"news","id":"84709","score":null,"sort":[1357341671000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"zero-dark-thirty-film-provokes-protests-over-glorification-of-torture","title":"'Zero Dark Thirty' Protesters Say It Glorifies Torture","publishDate":1357341671,"format":"aside","headTitle":"News Fix | KQED News","labelTerm":{"term":6944,"site":"news"},"content":"\u003cp>Osama bin Laden may be dead, but the controversy over his pursuit has never been more alive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_84724\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 225px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2013/01/Zero-Dark-Thirty-protester-Andrew-Stelzer.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-84724\" title=\"Zero Dark Thirty protester Andrew Stelzer\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2013/01/Zero-Dark-Thirty-protester-Andrew-Stelzer-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A protester says \"Zero Dark Thirty\" gives a wrong impression of torture.
