US, Saudi Arabia and UAE supplying weapons to Syrian Sunni “rebels?”
Why that just can’t be. John McCain would never allow that.
RT is a Russian run site that I listen to in Spanish once an awhile.
As far as “news” is concerned, I wouldn’t believe a word they say.
Other sourcing necessary.
Oh, the same Russians that told us not to put ISIS under surveillance while their Hezbollah buddies helped ISIS fighters escape in Lebanon? That can’t be.
But hey, any time, we get to read the official press arm of the Russian Government, we should be cheerful.
We were running them from Benghazi. That’s why the terrorists picked Benghazi to attack. The Blaze was all over this story two or three years ago. (They did an excellent episode of “For the Record” about it.)
The Bulgarian reporter being interviews does not work for RT.
She has recently been fired from Trud Newspaper where she initially reported on the shady dealings of Azerbaijan state airline Silk Airways and arms sales to Syria
“Investigative reporter Dilyana Gaytandzhieva authored a bombshell report for Trud Newspaper, based in Sofia, Bulgaria, which found that an Azerbaijan state airline company was regularly transporting tons of weaponry to Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Turkey under diplomatic cover as part of the CIA covert program to supply anti-Assad fighters in Syria. Those weapons, Gaytandzhieva found, ended up in the hands of ISIS and al-Qaeda terrorists in Iraq and Syria.”

Ok here you go, another source with the same story:
I would trust RT over MSNBC, CBS, CNN, ABC, NBC, ESPN, or Al Jazeera. They actually present news, you treat it like any by chasing down the back story.
...Former Zero Hedge writer Colin Lokey said that he was pressured to frame issues in a way he felt was "disingenuous," summarizing its political stances as "Russia=good. Obama=idiot. Bashar al-Assad=benevolent leader. John Kerry=dunce. Vladimir Putin=greatest leader in the history of statecraft." Zero Hedge founder Daniel Ivandjiiski, in response, said that Lokey could write "anything and everything he wanted directly without anyone writing over it." On leaving, Lokey said: "I can't be a 24-hour cheerleader for Hezbollah, Moscow, Tehran, Beijing, and Trump anymore. It's wrong. Period. I know it gets you views now, but it will kill your brand over the long run. This isn't a revolution. It's a joke."[1] Zero Hedge issued an official response to Lokey's claims saying he was given complete freedom over his writing.[14]
Finances[edit] Lokey said that he earned more than $100,000 in compensation from Zero Hedge in 2015, but departed from the site over a disagreement with editorial vision, expressing dissatisfaction with what he believed to be the website's turn toward clickbait as well as its pro-Hezbollah, Russian, Iranian, Chinese, and Trump positions. Ivandjiiski defended the website, saying that Lokey was given complete liberty as to what to write, and that it was always intended to be a for-profit entity, and criticized Lokey for making public comments.[1] According to Ivandjiiski, the blog generates revenue from online advertising.[1]
Reading it, see, it's the same sort of sources RT uses, a Bulgarian newspaper, etc.
So, you’re waiting for an American media source to cover this story?
World’s First Trillionaire, Bezos or Putin

Not bad for a KGB agent, if one wants to trust the press, being RT so much, let them have it.
