I'd say Obama is insane for sending TOW missiles to Al Qaeda allies. That's ing insane

US is actually considering to call Al Qaeda allies their democratic army in Syria. That's ing insane.
yep. HNIC been like Nixon on steroids but the media is ballsdeep so we'll never know the extent of his shenanigans. crazy times.
that from consortium news too?
Repugs armed, financed,helped the mujahideen in Afghanistan, they turned into the Taliban. good move
Reagan/Repugs gave arms, help, and probably poison gas to Saddam, then claimed he hit the WTC and invaded his country for oil.
Reagan sold arms to Iran, took the money to fund the contras in Nicaragua, a country that is still lawlessly ed up by contras 30 years later, spewing 100Ks women and children piling up on the TX border, trying escape the USA created in their country.
History sucks, doesn't it? it makes all y'all rightwingnuts look so stupid, ignorant.
What does HNIC stand for?
chump is usually pretty quick with the google searches
i'm pretty sure he knows what it means, he's just doing 21 Questions (100K edition) again.
Chump it's basically like Commander in Chief.
Why do you use it?
Because it sounded funnier than CIC.
Why do you think it's funny?

The article says that they will talk with them. It said nothing about the TOW missiles. The part where we are giving weapons to AQ or their allies is what I was asking for confirmation for.
It is a fact the Free Syrian Army has been provided the TOWs:
a Saudi official confirmed the delivery of 500 TOW an ank missiles to the Free Syrian Army (FSA).
The delivery of the TOW missiles — which have also been provided by the CIA — will increase the capabilities of the FSA against Syrian armor

it is also a known fact that the FSA has been allied with Al Nusra (Al Qaeda) to form The Army of Conquest:
Take for example al-Qaida affiliate Nusra Front. In March this year the group formed an alliance with the Free Syrian Army – touted as a moderate Syrian opposition group by the US. The alliance christened itself Army of Conquest to jointly take on the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Subsequently, both Nusra and the Free Syrian Army have participated shoulder-to-shoulder in several battles against Assad’s forces. And in case there were any doubts about their cooperation, Nusra recently released a video thanking the Free Syrian Army for providing it with US-made anti-tank TOW missiles. So much for US claims that it was only supplying equipment to moderate Syrian rebels.

thus the following statement is spot on:
Okay so then if they give it to that ex Syrian colonel that has been leading the secular FSA then that means they give it to AQ. Nice. I'm not some dumbass that doesn't understand the dynamics of the actual major players and who is who.
If you want to fearmonger that they will fall into enemy hands particularly after the lessons of our enemies then great but that is not what you are doing. If we actually had tanks on the ground then you might really have a point.
That leads us to an interesting question: who does have tanks on the ground in Syria that is fighting the FSA former military forces? Could it be your boys the Russians? The same ones that are bombing the former Syrian Army positions and are otherwise enforcing the in bent regime?
I'm going to start calling you Boris.
Similarly considering how the Russians enforced Eastern Ukraine and launched offensives, a bunch of TOWs sounds like a good answer.
Not sure why you are stating that. I am merely responding to your question regarding:
The part where we are giving weapons to AQ or their allies is what I was asking for confirmation for.
I merely responded to that.
It's not fearmongering if my statement is factual. Which it is as proven above.If you want to fearmonger that they will fall into enemy hands particularly after the lessons of our enemies then great but that is not what you are doing. If we actually had tanks on the ground then you might really have a point.
Again, not sure why you call this an interesting question as you seem to know the answer to it. Also has nothing to do with my original factual statement which you questioned in the first place:That leads us to an interesting question: who does have tanks on the ground in Syria that is fighting the FSA former military forces? Could it be your boys the Russians? The same ones that are bombing the former Syrian Army positions and are otherwise enforcing the in bent regime?
I'd say Obama is insane for sending TOW missiles to Al Qaeda allies. That's ing insane
I am used to childlish namecalling around here so you can do that if it makes you feel good.I'm going to start calling you Boris.
Greg Abbott is the worst kind of dog whistle politician.
It would be funny to see what would happen if Obama made a public statement praising Greg Abbott. I think the Guv's head might explode trying to figure out if he needed to immediately refute Obama's claim and stake out ground on the other side of that statement.
Disagree. Handing TOWs to jihadi extremists and terrorist affiliates is definitely not a good answer.
here is the video of Al Qaeda thanking the FSA for the TOW weaponry gifts... Guess Santa came early....
