TEL AVIV – The U.S. in recent weeks aided in the transfer of shoulder-launched anti-aircraft missiles, or man-portable air-defense systems, to the Syrian rebels, according to informed Middle Eastern security officials.

The arming of Syrian rebels is considered highly controversial. A major issue is the inclusion of jihadists, including al-Qaida, among the ranks of the Free Syrian Army and other Syrian opposition groups.

The Middle Eastern security officials speaking to WND said the latest U.S.-facilitated weapons transfers signify the most advanced deliveries yet to the Syrian rebels.

The officials said the deliveries included man-portable air-defense systems, or MANPADS, which are shoulder-launched surface-to-air missiles typically used to down low-flying aircraft, especially helicopters. The missiles are meant for the rebels to utilize against the Syrian Air Force, said the officials.

Yup.
Obama’s America is now at war with Israel. A huge possibility those weapons will be used against the “other “ America as well.

That is a huge problem when you have a Ghazi in OUR White House.

Will the media give cover to these morons when American planes are being blown out of the sky by these weapons? Will they get the same level of protection they received when Americans were being murdered with the guns the regime provided to the drug cartels in operation Fast and Furious.? There’s about a 100% chance that the terrorist will use these shoulder fired rockets against commercial airplanes carrying American passengers.

U.S. sending its sons and daughters out of the front door to fight Islam while allowing muslims to enter the house through the back door.

Congresscritters remain mute but continue to draw salary.

I can’t have a scary looking rifle with more than 10 rounds, yet these private citizens get actual military weapons. Not “military style”, actual military weapons.

The Obama Administration was not content with
FAST and Furious, but also armed terrorists worldwide
with MANPADs. After all, THEY are protected unlike
the common people.

I have seen various administrations over the years do some pretty dumb things but never thought I would see the day when an administration would actually be arming our arch enemies and purposely bankrupting our country.
The fact that this man evades serious questions and impeachment is the biggest disappointment of all. There is already very strong evidence that Obama could actually be working to destroy our country, yet no one dares to question him. He and his administration have become completely lawless yet nothing forthcoming from those in power that could stop it with articles of impeachment. Even if it would go nowhere in the Senate, the revelations in any impeachment hearing could force the man out of office. This country is now bereft of honorable leaders. Heaven help us.

Could one of these missiles have taken down the Chopper with our SEALs?
