Just so you understand who it is the US will be overtly arming in Syria [View all]
Published on Aug 17, 2014
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".
