Hagel: US rethinking possibly arming rebels
None
The Obama administration is rethinking its opposition to arming Syrian rebels, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said on Thursday.
At a Pentagon news conference, Hagel said the administration is considering a range of options. He said he personally has not decided whether it would be wise to provide weapons to the rebels. "Arming the rebels, that's an option," Hagel said. "We must continue to look at options." He added that the US is considering a range of options in consultation with allies. (AP)
