"America Is On Our Side": Al-Nusra Commander Tells German Press US Is Arming Jihadists
Zero Hedge ^ | 9/26/16 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 09/26/2016 7:53:18 PM PDT by Nachum

In a striking interview with German journalist Jürgen Todenhöfer published today the German press including the prominent newspaper Focus, a militant jihadist commander said that US weapons are being delivered to Jabhat Al-Nusra by governments that Washington supports, adding that American instructors were in Syria to teach how to use the new equipment.

“Yes, the US supports the opposition [in Syria], but not directly. They support the countries that support us. But we are not yet satisfied with this support,” Jabhat al-Nusra unit commander Abu Al Ezz said in an interview with Koelner Stadt-Anzeiger newspaper from the city of Aleppo. According to the commander, the militants should be receiving more “sophisticated weapons” from their backers to succeed against the Syrian government.

Hussein Obama and Co. have been arming, training, and funding the jihadis since at least 2011.

US Special Forces sabotage White House policy gone disastrously wrong with covert ops in Syria Jack Murphy | 09.14.2016

“Nobody believes in it. You’re like, ‘**** this,’” a former Green Beret says of America’s covert and clandestine programs to train and arm Syrian militias. “Everyone on the ground knows they are jihadis. No one on the ground believes in this mission or this effort, and they know they are just training the next generation of jihadis, so they are sabotaging it by saying, ‘**** it, who cares?’”

“I don’t want to be responsible for Nusra guys saying they were trained by Americans,” the Green Beret added. A second Special Forces soldier commented that one Syrian militia they had trained recently crossed the border from Jordan on what had been pitched as a large-scale shaping operation that would change the course of the war. Watching the battle on a monitor while a drone flew overhead, “We literally watched them, with 30 guys in their force, run away from three or four ISIS guys.”

RE: “Yes. Perhaps our pilots are tired of bombing Assad’s bases in support of ISIS, or climbing into fighter jets with FAILED PARTS IN THEM BECAUSE THERE ARE NO SPARES. Notice all the jets crashing lately?

Today’s patriots in our military are forced to commit treason because of their traitor ‘boss’. And people wonder why our veterans commit suicide. So many gains then 0dunga P*SSES IT ALL AWAY IN THE NAME OF ‘ALLAH’.”

Unbelievable that we are arming the same group of terrorist that have injured so man American service men over the years.
Just because they changed their name from al Qaeda doesn’t mean they changed their ways .

It’s criminal ,really criminal what 0 is doing.

They have many names. There are many offshoots of AQ.
We are arming helping most of them.

Some are at odds with each other, but they will all turn on us at the appointed hour.

The general population lives in a fantasy world. The debate tonight was from a whole different world - one where the really important information is absent. It makes me sick to my stomach, knowing that most of the nation knows nothing about the real situation we’re in.

I think Trump was flustered because he was confronted by how easy it is for lies to stand, when nobody is hearing true facts.

Washington D.C. chickenhawks and globalists are on your side. America would like to see your jihadi DNA erased from the gene pool and consigned to oblivion.

Obama has never had more than half a clue who the heck he was supporting in the vicinity of Syria, or who they were fighting for. Total fail.

Sadly mistaken.
He knows exactly what he’s doing and his actions are deliberate.
By setting the middle east on fire, he gives Muslim hornet swarms an excuse to wage jihad en mass, resulting in extinction of ME Christians, further radicalization of “moderate” muslims, and destruction of Europe by millions of muslim refugees.

He has assured we’ve lost our moral authority - all the world knows America is perceived as the most dangerous provocateur since the USSR.

He has severely damaged our military’s battle capability.
Our troops have been demoralized, which damages effectiveness and recruitment as individual’s question why should they join and risk dying for a military that’s played a role in creating horrific ISIS.

I never thought I’d ever see anything so disgraceful happen to our nation.

RE: “Obama has never had more than half a clue who the heck he was supporting in the vicinity of Syria, or who they were fighting for. Total fail.”

In politics few things happen by accident.

Sadly mistaken.

I'm not at all mistaken about the ONE point I addressed. Obama and McCain and all those who supported arming various groups in Syria had no clue as to their true loyalties and intentions. The silliness about good rebels and bad rebels and vetted rebels was ridiculous.

There have been numerous reports of US supplied weapons ending up in the wrong hands and groups we armed fighting each other or joining groups considered to be the enemy.

But if you want to believe Obama had some perfect understanding of the milieu of loyalties and intentions in Syria go ahead and believe it.

As I said, my comment addressed ONE point and you took off on numerous tangents.

I stand by my contention that the mess in Syria was and is completely deliberate. Obola has deliberately set the middle east on fire via actions that repeatedly serve to support radical Muslims versus secular government in at least six countries.

By way of power vacuum premature pull out, Obola deliberately eff’ed up:
1. Iraq, and
2. Afghanistan
3. deliberately supported Muslim Brotherhood rule in Egypt, 4. deliberately disrupted Libya, by arming and funding al-Queda and overthrowing Kadafi.
5. went to war with Syria’s secular leaning gov’t, by arming and funding al-Queda islamic fundamentalist “rebels”.
6. Gave the Iranian muslim extremist government BILLIONS and permission to build nuclear wespons.

Obvious foreign policy pattern of deliberately using Islamic fundamentalism for creative destruction, wouldn’t you say?
‘Specially considering our Commander-in-chief has stated that he believes “there’s no sweeter sound than the Islamic morning call prayer”, and promised he “will stand with Islam in the face of ugly winds”

There’s nothing accidental about Obola’s promised “Fundamental transformation” of America.

“In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way.” - (attributed to FDR)

Machiavellianism - the employment of cunning and duplicity in statecraft or in general conduct, often by creating a crisis in which a predetermined solution achieves a desired goal. The end justifies the means.

Obama has tried to topple regimes he did not like and he's tried to install regimes he favored in the ME. He did not want to "set the ME on fire", but rather he wanted to arrange the ME to his liking.

And that shows his incompetence and ignorance to think that he could do such a thing. You forgot to mention the introduction of Russian military forces into the chaos. Did Obama foresee that, also?

And both Obama and Biden bragged about what a great success their Iraq policy would be. Neither foresaw the chaos that resulted. They had no clue what would happen and that is far from fashioning the outcome they desired. They acted stupidly and helped bring about catastrophes for a few million people in that region.

If you rigously questioned why Obola repeatedly supports Muslim jihadists taking power across the five countries he’s interfered with, along with asking, cui bono (who benefits), you’d readily come to conclusion everything he’s done is intentional, and far from accidental.

But you imply, or say, that Obama got what he wanted. He didn’t. He has been an incompetent failure at arranging the ME as he desired.

He helped topple Mubarak and install the MB, but then the Egyptian people overthrew the MB and now have a government not to Obama’s liking.

He wanted to topple Assad in Syria, but Assad is still in power with Russian forces in country helping to keep him in power. Not to mention all his idiotic attempts to vet and arm the “good rebels”.

The only place one might say Obama succeeded is Iran with his stupid nuclear deal. Everywhere else he clearly failed and either chaos and disaster reigns, or regimes he did not want are in power.

He and the NWO elites have gotten EXACTLY what they want.
“either chaos and disaster reigns”, to quote your words.

Angry blood-thirsty Muslim hordes are sweeping the Middle East, Europe, Africa and North America.
They are rapidly disrupting government, economies and cultures, which makes ushering in marxist hybrid one world government and currency all the easier.

Community organizer’s main instrument of change is agitating useful idiot locals to threaten and disrupt their gov’ts and businesses to affect change.
His foreign policy uses exactly that, ie: agitate Muslims to disrupt entire governments, economies and cultures.

In seven years we’ve seen astounding fundamental transformation pushing America to marxism, ruining our economy, reputation, culture and moral authority.
I rest my case.
