As opposed to arming Al Qaeda? Since when has Assad attacked America? Continue spouting the neocon line Demohawk. The neocons only want Assad deposed because of his support for Hezbollah in Lebanon. So let it be known that you'd rather arm America's enemy if it benefits Israel. Good to know.

Tether yourself to the facts.

The Syrian people support Assad. That's not coming from me that coming from UN representatives. I know this is contrary to the WaPo/CIA narrative but that's the message coming from the people on the ground according to the UN. Will provide YouTube link in a moment.

Read the article below. How can you call yourself a progressive and yet believe reflexively the pronouncements of the CIA, NSA and its mouthpieces in the media and Washington? Seriously, we are talking about the most illiberal group of people in this country. How can you believe in liberal policies domestically yet support such an evil foreign policy abroad, which results in the deaths of so many brown people you liberals claim to love so much?

read a history book goon. Reagan armed the Mujhadeen to fight the Soviets in Afghanistan and then those Mujhadeen became Al Queda.

We armed the group that became AQ.

Praetorian guard protects the swamp.

It's expensive to do investigative journalism. The media that you speak of are a very few and far between. Glenn Greenwald is a good journalist. So is Sharyl Attkisson and Eva Bartlett. So there are some good folks out there however for the most part the praetorian guard which mostly includes the NYTs and WaPo (in print) publish articles which are disseminated nation wide and parroted by other news organizations. It's a cheap form of journalism and it serves as good protection of the swamp.

Decatur has gone full neocon. History isn't relevant when it stands in the way of perpetual war.

Read the article below.


Article does not make the claim that the US is arming and training JAN as part of the CIA program. There's some quacky prediction at the end but it doesn't amount to anything. Also, the article distinguishes between JAN and the moderate opposition.

If you can provide a better article with some real sourcing I'll read it.
