1. US Arming Syrian "rebels"
Thom Paine ,   USA   (06.15.13)
So lets get this straight, Obama wants to continue to arm Al Quaida, the Islamic brotherhood, etc. While demanding that US citizens give up their guns at home?!? Obamas dreams of a caliphate it sounds like to me! It is disgusting beyond words.
2. Whether the US knows what they're doing or not, the result
tom ,   tel aviv   (06.15.13)
will be bad as expected. How many ears left of Obama's mistreatment of power...?
3. guns vs. freedom vs. nsa
sam ,   merlin oregon   (06.15.13)
Why give guns to foriegners that we take from americans? I know nsa reads this tells cia to watch so understand clearly giving foriegners weapons is hypocrytical by americas president when wants to take american civil rights to guns. Try to ban guns in syria first. Maybe they will stop with a ban. Ask newtown folks. They think bans work to stop violence. A newtown bloomberg ban theoretically should work to end this war and all war forever! Put your money in syria bloomberg. They need amagic fix. Dont send guns period.
4. What could possibly go wrong?
Stan Marsh ,   South Park   (06.15.13)
5. Where's the logic?
Yaara ,   Israel   (06.15.13)
I don't understand the logic. In Syria USA wants to aem Al-Qaida while in Afghanistan they are faiting them. It's Afghanistan 30 years ago all over again. The USA armed the taliban against Russians. Now they want to arm Al-Qaida agains Syria and Russia. No good will come out of it for Israel. At the end of Syrian war they will all unite agains Israel and use americans weapons.
6. Very bad move for Israel...
Al   (06.15.13)
This will put Israel in no defense posture from future attack from Syria. Small arms lead to bigger arms leads to no fly zones leads to boots on the ground. Study every single USA involvement over the past 40 years and you will understand. This does not bode well for Israel. In fact I propose it is meant to reign in Israel and force her to accept bogus peace deals, nothing more and nothing less. Obama is finally doing what you always wanted to do. Namely throttle Israel.
7. what a bad move
david   (06.15.13)
Surely they learnt from Afghanistan and Israel from Iran/Iraq war that supplying your enemies even with a common enemy will always result in them pointing them at you after ! Way to go USA throw Israel under a bus. What a joke
