Just so you understand who it is the US will be overtly arming in Syria

One of the key US men in Syria, the "Free Syrian Army" (FSA) Col. Abdel Jabbar al-Okaidi, who operated mostly in the Greater Aleppo area, was open about his daily communication and collaboration with extremist jihadists from the "Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant" (ISIL) and al-Qaeda's official branch in Syria, Jabhat al-Nusra. He refers to their fighters as brothers. In one footage after the rebel capture of Menagh military airbase, he even appeared standing next to an Egyptian jihadist from ISIL, Abu Jandal, while thanking him and his group for their contributions. The US is known to have funneled military aid to al-Okaidi and others in the FSA throughout the last couple of years.

Openly arming these terrorists is what John McCain has been demanding. It's about the PNAC plan of taking out Syria. They've been armed, funded and trained covertly up until now. McCain has met with these terrorists in Turkey, another party to what's going on.

Free Syrian Army, al Nusra, Al Qaeda, ISIL, are all the same nest of terrorists. There are no "moderate rebels".

1. Thanks for the info:)

2. I know I heard Obama say he will arm these guys to fight ISIS but there are ways to make that

not happen much.

What does Syria say about another sovereign nation bombing their lands with precision air missiles guaranteed to kill only the bad guys?

Will the mass media tell us who these guys are in detail?

3. Smoke and mirrors

They're all terrorist groups from the same pool of Takfiri freaks. They have had infighting between them because it's a struggle for who be top beheader.

I've not checked any Syria news. Assad is certainly aware that this is a ruse being used to start the bombing campaign that fell through last year. It's about taking out Syria.

4. I am not sure it is about taking out Syria if the missiles only fall on ISIS and not Syrian military

5. A big if, but time will tell. Obama will have to walk a fine line in Syria

to arm the right rebels and dismantle ISIS--not to mention his stated goal of replacing the Assad regime.

[Fred Sanders]

6. Yes, time will tell. I trust Obama to take care, the Pentagon not so much.

7. There are no "right rebels"

Please go back and watch the video I posted.

I've followed the Syrian conflict since it erupted. There's just a power struggle between terrorist factions and they're all backed, trained and financed by Washington, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Turkey. Al Nusra fighters got medical treatment in Israel! Why do you think ISIL hasn't attacked in Jordan or Israel or Turkey or the oppressive Gulf monarchist kingdoms?

8. Obama claims that certain rebel groups have been "vetted."

Do you think he is lying or just naïve? To be honest, I don't know what to believe here.

9. Lying

Anyone who has followed the Syrian conflict knows just what I've posted here. I'm talking regular peeps in the public. You think these politicians (Obama, Kerry, McInsane, etc) don't know this?! The US and partners created this beast. One could speculate that some of them (terrorists) went rogue but the facts don't support that.

I'll ask this, again: Why doesn't ISIL attack Jordan, Turkey, Israel, Saudi Arabia and Qatar?

That's a rhetorical question meant to assist you in seeing the ugly truth.

10. Thanks for making your case. I need to do more research on this.
