Rebranded Al-Qaeda Cell In Syria Receiving US Weapons
[MINTPRESSNEWS] Though many scoffed when the Al Qaeda affiliate in Syria, Jabhat Al-Nusra, rebranded itself Jabhat Fateh al-Sham...formerly al-Nusra, the current false nose and mustache of al-Qaeda in the Levant... , that cosmetic change was apparently enough to convince the US government to start sending them arms. In the recent push by rebels in the city of Aleppo, Al-Nusra /Al-Sham took a leading role and was reportedly among the rebels groups who received US weapons. Those weapons will first be used to kill Syrian government troops and after that, well, who knows? Posted by: Fred 2016-08-30 |
