Russia delivers new al-Qaida warning to U.S. (Jihadists being armed by Obama administration?)
WND ^ | Arpil 30, 2013 | Aaron Klein

TEL AVIV – Russia delivered to the Obama administration a list of the names of al-Qaida members among the Syrian rebels, who are receiving arms shipments coordinated by the U.S., according to informed Middle Eastern security officials.

The list, the officials added, demonstrates the U.S. is failing to vet the rebels being supported by the West for ties to al-Qaida and other jihad groups.

The information comes amid scores of news media reports that the Obama administration is aiding the rebels, including by coordinating Arab arms shipments.

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.

Just last week, WND broke the story that 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 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.

Confirming WND’s exclusive reporting for over a year, the New York Times reported in March that since early 2012, the CIA has been helping Arab governments and Turkey obtain and ship weapons to the Syrian rebels.

While the Times report claims most of the weapons shipments facilitated by the CIA began after the latest presidential election, Middle Eastern security officials speaking to WND have said U.S.-aided weapons shipments go back more than a year, escalating before the Sept. 11, 2012, attack on the U.S. facilities in Benghazi.

In fact, the Middle Eastern security officials speaking to WND since last year describe the U.S. mission in Benghazi and nearby CIA annex attacked last September as an intelligence and planning center

Let's see... over the last few days we were told that Syria did and then did not warn us about something.

What's the over/under on how long it will be before we're told that Russia didn't really warn us this time after all?

"We will pursue nations that provide aid or safe haven to terrorism. Every nation, in every region, now has a decision to make. Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists. From this day forward, any nation that continues to harbor or support terrorism will be regarded by the United States as a hostile regime." - G W Bush

They are looking for a place to wage war. Afghanistan and Iraq are closing down. The one battlefield they wanted from the beginning is our neighborhood. And our government has given them funds and opportunities to transfer their killing skills over here. I guess this is what being a diverse nation is all about.

There were 21,000 MANPADS anti-aircraft missiles in Khaddafi’s arsenal, and Bengazi’s core mission was to make sure the servicable ones did reach Syrian rebels.

Think about that next time you have to take your shoes off @ the airport.

Thanks Mesta!!

Obama sure seems to be pissing off many leaders in the world right now. Looks like they are realizing how dangerous he is to world stability and peace.

We have full fledged Communists, Socialists, and Facists advising Obama. He has surrounded
himself with either stooges who worship him or advisors who want to bring America to it's knees.
Disinformation is the game and is meant to saturate the airwaves to confuse. Some information
is meant to be released to confuse Americans while some information was not meant to be known by anybody.

The problem I have besides all that, is that our elected leaders are not using
their Bully Pulpit to bring all this to light. I'm afraid that by the time they decide
to fight back against the Obama Jihadist machine it may be to late to fix it within a safe
amount of time. It might take a decade at the very least.

The Clinton holdouts should have been outed and disposed of but Bush wanted to play fair
while they played low down and dirty. Now they hold high levels in the Pentagon and other
high rankings in the Government as they do everything in their power to protect themselves over Americans.
