U.S. military cargo planes gave 50 tons of ammunition to rebel groups overnight in northern Syria, using an air drop of 112 pallets as the first step in the Obama Administration's urgent effort to find new ways to support those groups.
Details of the air mission over Syria were confirmed by a U.S. official not authorized to speak publicly because the details have not yet been formally announced.

Supposedly they dropped it to the "New Coalition" called the "Syria Democratic Forces", supposedly made up of "Vetted Moderate Islamics", the YPG, and "Christians" in Western Syria.
Welcme to the world George Orwell predicted, folks.

Hopefully it will fall into the hands of the Russians.

Could have just landed at Putin’s new air base?

Too bad McCain wasn’t flying the plane. They may have never got there.

“Good stuff. We need to be giving this type of weaponry to all the nations and peoples Putin intends to bully into his neo-Russian Empire. “
Wrong answer - I fully support the Russians here.. we are funding and helping the same jagoffs that attacked us on 9/11..
Obama is the disaster we all knew he was and I am frankly glad that the Russians are stepping in.. I hope his plans for American demise go up in flames and he is shamed into oblivion by a real leader.
We don’t need to be dropping arms to ANYONE over there except maybe the Kurds... but of course Obama will support Al Qaida... I can’t stand this man....

Great! Near indiscriminately air dropping 50 tons of ammunition into Syria and the Middle East. What could possibly go wrong?
Are we really this stooped, or is this just a way for Obama to arm his Muslim buddies?

Can there be a MORE irresponsible and criminally idiotic way to do foreign policy?
How much of this Kabuki Administration BS does America have to take from the WH poseur before they call him what he IS?
He's the "bottom of the barrel leader" and has set a precedent for incompetence and pathological Anti American conduct that will take DECADES for the US to reverse!
