The following article claims that we knew Bergdalh's location and details of his confinement down to how many gunman were guarding him. It further claims that the reason rescue missions were shelved was because the military did not want to risk the lives of special forces personnel trying to save a deserter.

If it is true that we had knowledge like this, should we have launched a rescue mission?
