Those rebels won’t fight ISIS - they will take the arms the U.S. supplies and go back to fighting Assad.

If Assad falls to the Sunni Muslim Rebels and the Sunni Muslim ISIS, the Christians will lose their protector,(Assad).
The Sunni Muslim Jihadists know what to do with Infidels.-Tom

“It is not something that one should expect will yield rapid and immediate fruit,” Rice said, adding,
“ of course, it may turn out to be exceedingly
bitter fruit but the Obama will make it sweet,
just you wait and see.”

Who is benefiting from it and who is picking up the tab?

Two days ago, Speaker “Blank Check” Boehner approved the spending of $ 500,000,000 of US Taxpayer Dollars to “train” 5,000 Syrian Muslim Rebels in Saudi Arabia for one year. IOW, another Boehner Bailout Bill to Obama.

Here are a few discussion points that were NOT mentioned by Boehner:

* Each Syrian Muslim Rebel will cost $ 100,000 to train.

* 5,000 Syrian Muslim Rebels will be removed from the battlefields in Syria to a training site in Saudi Arabia for one year.

* The removal of 5,000 Syrian Muslim Rebels will leave their families with reduced protection from attack by Syrian Army troops, for one year.

* The removal of 5,000 Syrian Muslim Rebels will leave their families with NO protection from attack by ISIS troops, for one year.

* The removal of 5,000 Syrian Muslim Rebels from the battlefields of Syria will help both the Syrian and ISIS troops to more easily take over areas controlled by the Syrian Muslim Rebels.

BTW, did anyone notice if before the US Senate approved Boehner’s Bailout Bill yesterday, did any US Senator mention that removing 5,000 Syrian Muslim Rebels from the battlefields of Syria, was in effect, “Giving aid and comfort to the ENEMY” for the period of one year?

Well, yeah. It will take a while for the moderates to learn how to use the weapons well enough to pass them on to ISIS.

I wonder how much “workplace violence” those who have to train them can look forward to?

The USA has introduced slavery and Christian genocide
and WILL NOW BE REMEMBERED INTO ETERNITY THAT WAY.

The American People will not stand for what has
happened. Rice supported/supports al Qaeda and
the entire government has betrayed the People.

They will be “trained” and ready to gird their loins, shortly after Obama departs the WH.

So which Syrians are willing to say goodbye to their country and work for the infidels? They (and their families) will have to take political asylum no matter who wins in Syria.

Then it will be too little too late.

Just in time to change the subject before the election.

Good points, will the US/Coalition bomb the bad guys while the Syrians are being trained?

Has anyone ascertained what is meant by a moderate Syrian?

Apparently the “moderates” over there are whichever side is losing at the moment.

“This is a serious training program, and we are serious about vetting those that we will be training and equipping, Rice emphasized.”

Translation: Seriously... This is a seriously serious training program and we are serious about seriously vetting those serious enough to be seriously trained and seriously equipped. Seriously, Susie “don’t call me Benghazi Video” Rice said with a stern seriously serious face.... and I might add totally unexpected.
