Gender: Male Race or Ethnicity: White Sexual orientation: Straight Occupation: Military, Criminal Nationality: United States Executive summary: Green Beret wannabe Military service: US Army (Special Forces, 1975-78) Immortalized in the book The Hunt for Bin Laden. Arrested in Kabul, Afghanistan for running an unlicensed private jail which he ran with two subordinates. Collectively the freelancers called themselves Task Force Sabre 7.
According to one of Idema's websites:
When he was a Green Beret, Idema, 45, traveled to some dangerous areas, and his trusted companion in parachuting out of airplanes and sniffing out bombs was his Tibetan shepherd, Sarge. Idema even has a Web site detailing Sarge's heroics.
Unfortunately, Sarge's biological children have been underachievers. In fact, Sarge, 15, has outlived most of them.
"I know I'm trained for war, but every time I think about losing Sarge, I get teary-eyed", Idema said.
Upon receiving a ten-year prison sentence in an Afghan court, Idema lamented:
"I apologize that we saved these people[...] We should have let the fucking Taliban murder every goddamn one of them -- I operated in this country at the highest level."
