Obama’s treason in giving arms to Al-Qaeda in Syria is about to be topped as he has requested to give our enemies $500,000,000.
Obama has already given $500M in arms to Al-Qaeda in Benghazi, now he wants that amount in cash to Al-Qaeda in Syria, calling them ‘moderate’.
These ‘moderate extremists’ have already promised to attack the US and Britain and have been known to commit very brutal acts like killing people using baking ovens.
But, I guess they are moderate if you compare them to Obama himself, who does everything from kill children by the hundreds with drones to bait children to cross very dangerous lands to use them as a pawns in order to destroy a nation.
President Obama asked Congress Thursday for $500 million to train and arm members of opposition forces in Syria, part of an effort to stem insurgent violence that has spilled over into neighboring Iraq.
The proposed assistance can “help defend the Syrian people, stabilize areas under opposition control and facilitate the provision of essential services, counter terrorist threats, and promote conditions for a negotiated settlement,” the administration said in its budget request to Congress.
Potential recipients of the money — opponents of the Syrian government headed by Bashar al-Assad — will be vetted, officials said. Lawmakers have expressed concern that weapons and money sent to Syrian rebels might wind up with enemies of the United States.
“This funding request would build on the administration’s longstanding efforts to empower the moderate Syrian opposition, both civilian and armed, and will enable the Department of Defense to increase our support to vetted elements of the armed opposition,” said Caitlin Hayden, a spokesperson for the National Security Council.
The administration’s budget request includes $1.5 billion for a “Regional Stabilization Initiative” that involves the Syrian opposition as well as neighboring countries Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey and Iraq.
Details of the assistance have not been determined by the Pentagon, but it will involve training outside Syria, possibly Jordan, said a senior defense official who spoke on condition of anonymity because the details were not authorized to be released publicly.
The military could train a small cadre of fighters who would then return to Syria to share their knowledge or it could mean training entire units of rebels, the official said.
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel “has directed his staff to begin developing more detailed plans to carry out the train-and-equip mission, if approved by Congress,” Rear Adm. John Kerry, the Pentagon press secretary, said in a statement.
The initiative would be part of the “Counter-Terrorism Partnerships Fund” that Obama proposed during a foreign policy address last month at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, N.Y.
Somebody please kill this fool
Christopher Santoro Since a group of soldiers from the Mexican army flew in a helicopter, crossed over our border, flew a distance of 2 miles inside US sovereign territory, and fired upon our border patrol officers who were interdicting Mexican drug cartel smugglers….and Oscama has said nothing and not addressed the issue…this is sedition. Since P-Lousy has gone to the border and embraced the illegals arriving here en masse as “Americans”, she is also guilty of sedition.
Furthermore, it has also been discovered that the bus loads of people coming up from El Salvador and Honduras and Guatemala through Mexico is a manufactured crisis. Paperwork has been found and whistle blowers have informed the House of Representatives that, as early as January 2014, companies all over the southwestern United States were sought out by people from the DHS for support and aid to groups of people who would be coming from Latin America in the summer. These people are not workers. Many of them are women with several children. Many are large people who cannot take care of themselves. Intermixed in the groups are gang members who are being released into the United States population. In all of the groups are sick people with measles, smallpox, diphtheria, typhoid, chicken pox, lice, scabies, and a host of diseases that we have virtually wiped out within the United States. This manufactured crisis will be used by Oscama to put hundreds of thousands of more people onto the welfare and social service rolls and collapse the system. The end result of this manufactured crisis is that it will be used to force the issue of Amnesty and a whole new crop of Democrat voters, which will turn red states like Texas and Arizona blue, will be used to turn America into a nanny state.
Because Oscama has refused to address these issues, as well as either exacerbating them or being directly responsible for causing many of them to happen, he can now be charged with sedition and empeached.
All he ever was and all he will ever be is a spoiled, whining brat who has gotten everything he has ever wanted and has never been told “no” and a communist street agitator (AKA community organizer). He knows nothing and cares nothing about the American people, Veterans, or the Constitution.
We are in for troubled, bad times and the amount damage that Oscama, Holder, Lerner, Jarrett, Hitlery, Reid, P-Lousy, Frankenfeinstein, and the rest of the sycophants have foisted on this nation, will be virtually impossible to undo
