McCain enters Syria to meet rebels
WASHINGTON - US Senator John McCain crossed from Turkey into Syria on Monday to meet with rebel leaders in the war-torn nation, according to a spokesman for the top lawmaker who advocates arming the Syrian opposition.
That old man is going to talk us into a war we shouldn't get near... | McCain, the 2008 Republican presidential nominee, slipped across the border in an unannounced visit lasting several hours before he returned to Turkey.
I can confirm the trip. It was today, aide Brian Rogers said, confirming a report that first appeared on The Daily Beast, adding that no other lawmakers traveled with McCain into Syria.
