WASHINGTON (AP) U.S. officials say the CIA has been delivering light machine guns and other small arms to Syrian rebels for several weeks, following President Barack Obamas decision to arm the rebels.
The agency has also arranged for the Syrian opposition to receive anti-tank weaponry like rocket-propelled grenades through a third party, presumably one of the Gulf countries that has been arming the rebels, according to a senior U.S. intelligence official and two former intelligence officials. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the classified program publicly.

We’ve been arming them since they were fighting the Russian invasion decades ago.
Can’t have a good “conflict” without plenty of weapons.
“traitors in the American administration need to be arrested and tried”
Why? For aiding and abetting our Al Quaeda ‘allies’?
So Rove was behind Bush’s support of the Muslim Brotherhood? Not surprised. I never thought Bush was evil himself. Just overly-cloistered.
treasonous
Well, uh, there was that slander of the Minutemen that made me think Bush was evil ... stand self-corrected.
And to think that BO wanted us to fight WITH Al Quaeda tied anti-Christian terrorists ON 9-11.
Congress approved this in July 2013.
Nobody was looking at the time...I think the distraction was the Benghazi hearings...
I know. I am amazed at the lack of outrage in this country.
No. How silly. Everyone knows that airliners blow up in mid-air from faulty wiring run through their fuel tanks.< /sarcasm >
“U.S. officials say the CIA has been delivering light machine guns and other small arms to Syrian rebels for several weeks”
So it is safe to say then that Obama (and this administration) has blood on his/their hands regarding killing of CHRISTIANS???
.
Yes!
It has always been safe to say that.

THANKS thought so.........God help us
ping for Benghazi list.
Most people don’t know that Syrian rebels = Muslim Brotherhood/Al Queda. Something so basic to us here on FR that have been reading about this for months is not that plain to the average person who is not really into world news.
If they knew - they would be outraged.
We need to correct that.
NOW!!!!!!!!!!!
(Don’t ask me how but it has to happen.)
We have treason in the White House, and as far as I’m concerned, every stinking MSM reporter and executive who has been COVERING UP this treason is just as guilty.
Need to be arrested and tried...I’ll guarantee they never will, though!
“Our” side haven’t the balls for it.
ping
I agree 100%
Of course it has; I recall seeing reports in the first month of the conflict discussing Russian intelligence set up on the border supplying to Assad, with their US counterparts funnelling to the "resistance". Don't recall the source, but the US source (off the record, of course) said they were not the source of the arms, just making sure the arms got to groups that were not radical terrorists. THis might be technically true; they were probably funnelling arms that we paid for, supplied by other regional partners so they weren't traced to us, and making sure they were given to groups that we chose. It is extremely naive to think we have not had a presence in the region from day one.
Start with Brennan and work up.
