So the Senate wants to go ahead with something the CIA was opposed to because of the high risk involved in arming “insurgents” with powerful weapons that endanger civilian aircraft? How STUPID is that?

Can someone tell me if it was illegal to arm the libyan Rebels if not approved by Congress but approved by Obama?

CIA has often armed rebels without Congressional approval.

So other than a PR disaster - would it have been illegal.
