Via RINF, who references a NYT article from yesterday, we see that a "that a covert effort by the United States to arm and train Syrian rebels was beginning to yield results: the first 50-man cell of fighters, who have been trained by the C.I.A., was beginning to sneak into Syria."
As RINF points out that should "prompt concern given that moderate rebel forces are now fully infiltrated by extremist al Qaeda linked terrorists.
Elements of the Free Syrian Army have merged with jihadist groups that have direct ties to al Qaeda groups. For months, video footage of brutal attacks led by such extremists have been surfacing online.
Obama is not only accusing the Syrian leadership of attacks that there is just as much evidence out there showing were perpetrated by Obama's Syrian rebels, but he is now using our forces to train al-Qaeda linked and loyal jihadist members in order to remove Syria's dictator Assad from power.
More details at RINF.
Does anyone truly believe it is a good idea to arm, fund and train the very people that have sworn to annihilate the United States of America?
To the point that the Obama administration continues to try to make, claiming the rebels do not have access to chemical weapons, therefore they are safe to assume the Assad regime used them and not the rebels, I refer readers to what Global Research reminds people of, just today.
The Washington Post noted last December:
U.S. officials are increasingly worried that Syria’s weapons of mass destruction could fall into the hands of Islamist extremists, rogue generals or other uncontrollable factions.
Last week, fighters from a group that the Obama administration has branded aterrorist organization were among rebels who seized the Sheik Suleiman military base near Aleppo, where research on chemical weapons had been conducted. Rebels are also closing in on another base near Aleppo, known as Safirah, which has served as a major production center for such munitions, according to U.S. officials and analysts.
In the video below, Rush Limbaugh makes the same point... the MSM seems to be unwilling to remind Americans that the rebels did, indeed, have access to the chemical weapons used in the attack Obama claims Assad was responsible for.
