Here are the "moderate" rebels from 2012 threatening the USA to either help them or "else". That is how I read it. Tell me if I am wrong.

The Washington Compost article is a plea from a "moderate" Syrian rebel for aid. It is probably no accident that the sign's threat does not match his 'liberal' views supposedly held by Syrian rebels Russia is bombing (the editorial is complaining about that).

HANNITY: Let me ask you about what your colleague Rand Paul said about it this morning. He said, “It’s a mistake to arm them. Most of the arms that we’ve given the so-called ‘moderate’ rebels have wound up in the hands of ISIS because ISIS simply takes it from them or it is given to them and we mistakenly actually end up giving it to some radicals.”

MCCAIN: Has Rand Paul ever been to Syria? Has he ever met with ISIS? Has he ever met with any of these people?

HANNITY: I’m not trying to cause a fight, sir.

MCCAIN: No, no, we’re going to have a fight because it’s patently false. This is the same Rand Paul that said we didn’t want to have anything to do with anything to do in the Middle East, by the way. I don’t want to get in a fight with him at all, but it’s not true. I know these people. I’m in contact with them all the time, and he is not. He is not.

And by ‘help’ they do NOT mean food and blankets.
