This is good news for the world, bad news for the Obama White House. Why are we supporting terrorism? I thought Obama said he would never do this?

I detect sarcasm dripping from your post.

We should not be supporting Terrorism, but when we have a terrorist in the White House, what should we be expecting?

Likely the Russians did it, not the US, as the Russians are involved in heavy air strikes in the Aleppo area.

I'm confused. I read somewhere this AM that the Al-Nusra front is Syrian rebels fronting for the CIA to take out Assad. Only they've been allying with ISIS now that Russia has come to town.

I'm wondering if Al Nusra, CIA trained rebels, AlQaida, ISIS etc aren't just one big happy rather wealthy family that gets their money from everyone who has a cause. Are they all really just mercenarites who fight their battles then come home to families and friends, all intermingled? Aren't they all terrorists if they're fighting to topple a legal government, regardless of who's funding them?

That's what it's looking like.

Just remember that there is the CIA, and then there is the Department of State CIA. Two different groups, although the general public is not aware of it.

The Benghazi gun running was being done by the STATE CIA.

A dark day for the Kenyan, no doubt. Perhaps reminiscent of the sadness Lincoln felt upon leaning of the death of General Benjaman Helm at Chickamauga. Except Helm was fighting for the other side.
