Militant leaders from the Islamic State group and al-Qaida gathered at a farm house in northern Syria last week and agreed on a plan to stop fighting each other and work together against their opponents, a high-level Syrian opposition official and a rebel commander have told The Associated Press.
Such an accord could present new difficulties for Washington's strategy against the IS group. While warplanes from a U.S.-led coalition strike militants from the air, the Obama administration has counted on arming "moderate" rebel factions to push them back on the ground. Those rebels, already considered relatively weak and disorganized, would face far stronger opposition if the two heavy-hitting militant groups now are working together.

i wonder how much support we were giving them...
yikes.
Assad is winning.
So when does obama and his czar’s come to the realization that this will keep happening as the global caliphate takes place and it will not take the “many years” the obama fruitcakes are saying but a concerted effort on the part of many nations just like previous attempts at world domination?
Oh never mind...we are dealing with the TWO stupid parties.
Ours, unfortunately and thiers...

That’s ok, they will be killing each other again before the year’s end.
That farm house was a target rich environment. It is too bad a missile wasn't put through a window.
There needs to be a mother of all battles. And in the process we turn the place into a parking lot.
Wait, Obama told everyone that al quada was on the run. He said Osama was dead and GM was alive because of him. Oh, and if you like your insurance you can keep your insurance.
Indeed. i believe AlQaeda has always been chumy with Assad and Sadddam
Their cooperation is not new.
Hope you weren’t looking for the moderates....
Well that settles it. Now we must redouble “our” effort to topple Assad.

What’s two times zero? Obie announced today that we’re going to give Assad a free hand. Watch Aleppo, if Assad takes it completely, the revolution will be a stalemate.
I am shocked that Obie would say that. (He HATES Assad). He is spinning like a top. Kerry is out of action performing victory cartwheels for having China agreeing to end CO2 emissions by 2030 if we end ours now. Reminds me of, “Let’s jump off the cliff. OK. You first.”
