US sent weapons to Syria through Ramstein military base
2017-09-14
They wanted Barack Obama as president, so really, they oughtn't complain.
[DW] Washington's air base in southwestern Germany was used for a time to store and send weapons to Syrian rebels, according to the Suddeutsche Zeitung. If the report proves true, the US could have violated German law.

The US military has been using its massive air base in western Germany to arm rebel groups in Syria without Berlin's permission, according to a report from German newspaper Suddeutsche Zeitung published on Wednesday.

The US military may have violated German law with the alleged weapons transfers as the German government has not approved any weapons transports of this type since the conflict in Syria began in 2011.

#1  They wanted Barack Obama as president, so really, they oughtn't complain


a) He isn't President anymore.

b) Who the new President is, is one the Germans don't want.
