Do Americans get their heavy weapons too? Or just lunatics that cut out and eat the hearts of their enemies and pray to Allah?

Unless Putin teaches Obama and McCain a lesson. The Benghazi pipeline needs to be closed, too.

Yes, but they aren't as heavy because our guys aren't allowed to carry any ammunition.

Obama declared that there was no war on terror. As such, these are just your friendly neighborhood Islamists.

Aleppo yet. There used to be a large Jewish population in Aleppo, but most of them emigrated long ago. Aleppo was the end of the Silk Route and was a very important city in its day.

There used to be large Jewish populations in most ME and continental European cities. Now, not so many.

Damascus was an important city also. I did not think I would be around to see it, but I think it is coming sooner rather than later. Damascus will be an ruinous heap and Mr. Obama is helping in that situation.

“We now have supplies from Saudi Arabia,” a rebel source said. “We have been told more weapons are on their way, even higher-end missiles.”

What kind of "universal background check" did Obama and his gun-control minions require?

“However the real challenge to the unity of the Syrian opposition lies in Jabhat al-Nusra, to whom thousands of Free Syrian army fighters have apparently defected. Numbering only 5,000 fighters as of January, but now perhaps many more, al-Nusra’s core fighters come from Iraq’s post-war insurgency and have recently pledged allegiance to Al-Qaeda in Iraq.”

It’s only treason if you oppose world-wide jihad, a global caliphate and subjugation of the infidels to sharia law ...

When FDR decided to get into a lend lease program with the Brits during WW2, before we were involved, did that not require congressional approval?

We have one or two left but my unit has run out already,” said Abdullah Da’ass, a burly, bearded fighter with the Free Men of Syria brigade. “We were given five. We fired four, and took out four regime tanks, and one was a dud.”

Look I know I went to Catholic Grammar School and all, but something seems VERY wrong with the math here

Congress hasn’t the cajones to challenge Obama, on anything... “dog whistle” and all that.

What sort of background check did they go through?
If the waiting period for fire arms is three days,
how long is it for heavy weapons?
