A decorated US special forces soldier has been charged with an Afghan man's murder, which he reportedly admitted while applying for a job with the CIA.

US Army Green Beret Major Matthew Golsteyn allegedly shot someone he described as a suspected Taliban bomb-maker during his 2010 deployment.

Maj Golsteyn also subsequently spoke about the incident during an interview with Fox News.

He denies the charge and maintains he did not violate rules of engagement.

In 2011 he took a routine lie detector test during an interview process for a job with the CIA.

He allegedly told interviewers that on 22 February 2010 he and another soldier had taken an alleged Taliban bomb-maker off base, shot him and buried his remains, reports NBC News.

The admission led the Army Criminal Investigation Command to investigate Maj Golsteyn in 2011.

In April 2014, he got off with an official reprimand because of lack of evidence.

Two years later, Maj Golsteyn spoke on a Fox News special report, titled "How We Fight", about how he killed the suspected bomb-maker.

He told the anchor he shot the man because he was concerned he would kill Afghan informants if released.

The climate models used by alarmist scientists to predict global warming are getting worse, not better; carbon dioxide does far more good than harm; and President Obama has backed the “wrong side” in the war on “climate change.

From 2015. I guess this story never got the exposure it needed. This man has the credentials to make this claim.

In an interview with Andrew Orlowski of The Register, Dyson expressed his despair at the current scientific obsession with climate change which he says is “not a scientific mystery but a human mystery. How does it happen that a whole generation of scientific experts is blind to the obvious facts.”

We hear about the 97% when it is the 3% who are honest about this conveinent crisis to foist a carbon tax on the misinformed.

Pelosi: No wall funding, even if that means ‘government closed forever’

Pelosi thinks she can outlast or outwit Trump. We shall see, but I give the edge to Trump and the American people of every color who want America to stay America.

Does he have the right to think homosexuality is immoral? He sure does. Will you be shot if you do not agree with him? No.

@coldjoint,
Oh he certainly has the right to have an opinion, just like you do. Just like yours, his opinions are disgusting. We have the right to blast such opinions for being bigoted .

@coldjoint,
The people want America to stay America. Which is precisely why the majority do think Trump is dishonest and don't believe his lies, and why the large majority do NOT want his wall. He's made it very clear if there is a shutdown, it's HIS shutdown. And the American people HATE the idea of a government shutdown. If it happens, it' due to Trump, not Pelosi, and he's the one that gets the shitstorm. Just lock him up now, avoid the wait.

You have no right to say that, or proof of that.

To not put any objective thought into anything, you sure do. And you exercise that right daily.

@coldjoint,
Dyson should stick to vacuum cleaners. His opinions on vacuum cleaners are sound. But hundreds of observations and science proven over and over again show he's just blowing particulate-laden smoke on climate.

@coldjoint,
It's a moral question. You show no evidence of objective thought yourself, a whole lot of knee jerk response, yes, objctive thought, no.

You are a nit picking old man who has no idea how moral anyone is to start with, especially on a forum on the internet. But your summation is spot on. Cool

A number of a2kers have met Walter personally on his visits to the States, and recognize his sagacity. I've never met anyone who'll vouch for yours,
