“Moderate” Syrian rebels. They only kill Christians every now and then and want to implement Sharia law in Syria.

Notice the “a move sought by Moscow”.
That is all the liberals are stressing.
It’s absurd they are calling this more of how Trump is Putin’s puppet.
In reality it is no longer funding and arming the Islamic State.

Even on liberal reddit that part didn’t go over well. No one wants to fund those terrorist groups and the press just made themselves look like clowns with that headline.
