A top Senate Democrat nudged the Obama administration to provide weapons to the Syrian opposition, introducing a bill Monday that would explicitly allow the U.S. to provide arms, military training and non-lethal aid to the rebels.

Sen. Bob Menendez of New Jersey, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, introduced the legislation on the heels of U.S. intelligence claims that chemical weapons likely were used in the country.

"The Assad regime has crossed a red line that forces us to consider all options," Menendez said in a written statement. "The greatest humanitarian crisis in the world is unfolding in and around Syria, and the U.S. must play a role in tipping the scales toward opposition groups and working to build a free Syria."

No and a thousand times No

They are NOT the opposition, they are the Muzzie Bros. and Al Qaeda working on the Caliphate.

[JohnBrowdie]

They apparently need to replenish their supply of sarin gas.

[Mr. K]

isn’t this the guy who went to Dominican republic to rape underage girls?

[LyinLibs]

They smuggle weapons to the mozzie scumbags for 1-2 years, then THE WEEK of Benghazi testimony, they finally decide to hold a vote on it?

[Ken522]

From none other than Sen. Bob “I like ‘em young and fresh” Menendez!

[FlingWingFlyer]

More weapons going to the Islamoterrorists. They’ll definitely end up being used against Americans.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Commie lib DemocRATS are the root cause for the violence in Syria.

[Rome2000]

Yeah, there really isn’t much difference between Jersey and Syria , at least when it comes the IQ of the electorate.

[jsanders2001]

Haven’t we learned enough times already that the friend today will end up being our enemy tomorrow?

[Hardraade]

Why not just give AQ a fixed number of US senators? They already have the President and most of the Democratic Party.

[cripplecreek]

So who are the opposition and what about the Sarin Gas the BBC is reporting them to be using?

[griswold3]

Ditto!

[Kaslin]

the left obviously hasn’t

[Kaslin]

I believe so

[penelopesire]

Obama has already been doing that.....that is what Benghazi was all about.

[USNBandit]

Watch out for a rider amendment to increase “student” visas for Dominicans.....

[petitfour]

He is a little late to this ball game. Obama don’t need no stinkin permission.

[Mortrey]

Hey, Menendez!

ONLY if YOU hand deliver.

11 The angel of the Lord also said to her:
“You are now pregnant
and you will give birth to a son.
You shall name him Ishmael,
for the Lord has heard of your misery.
12 He will be a wild donkey of a man;
his hand will be against everyone
and everyone’s hand against him,
and he will live in hostility
toward all his brothers.” Genesis 16:11-12
