Sotloff Family Spokesman: Syria’s ‘So-Called Moderate Rebels’ Sold Sotloff To ISIS
Daily Caller ^ | 9/8/14

Posted on 09/10/2014 6:16:38 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

A spokesman for the family of murdered journalist Steven Sotloff claimed Monday night that Sotloff was sold to the terrorist group the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) by Syria’s “so-called moderate rebels.”

.....“We believe that these so-called moderate rebels that people want our administration to support, one of them sold him probably for something between $25,000 and $50,000 to ISIS and that was the reason he was captured,” Barfi said.

....Barfi then turned his ire toward the Obama administration for making “a number of inaccurate statements.”

“They’ve said that the families have been consistently and regularly informed. That is not true,” he claimed. “I speak now only from the Sotloff family. I can’t speak for the other families. They said that these hostages were moved frequently. We know that for most of the beginning of part of this year they were stationary. We know that the intelligence community and the White House are enmeshed in a larger game of bureaucratic infighting and [murdered journalist] Jim [Foley] and Steve are pawns in that game and that’s not fair.”

Tonight Obama is going to propose America funds and arms the same Syrian rebels who apparently sold a human being to ISIS so that ISIS could behead him on camera!

I don’t like to think this way but it appears that Obama (and Hillary, McCain and all the others) is getting his original wish to fund the Syrian militants. They already have our weapons perhaps so now we send them other help. What are the chances they turn against Assad and join up with ISIS? I hope and pray that he has good advice. Pray for Obama whether you like him or not. These are bad times.
