You have a problem with this? I don't.

A backer of Sen. Bernie Sanders (Vt.) during the Democratic presidential primary, Gabbard last month introduced the Stop Arming Terrorists Act, which would bar the U.S. government from providing money or other support to the Islamic State or Jabhat Fatah al-Sham, the al-Qaeda group formerly known as Jabhat al-Nusra, or to any of their allies or to any countries that support them directly or indirectly.

“If you or I gave money, weapons or support to al-Qaeda or ISIS, we would be thrown in jail,” she said in announcing the legislation. “Yet the U.S. government has been violating this law for years, quietly supporting allies and partners of al-Qaeda, ISIL . . . and other terrorist groups with money, weapons and intelligence support, in their fight to overthrow the Syrian government.”


And there ya go, told.
