Obama Asks Congress for $500 Million for Rebels

June 26th, 2014

The ink is hardly dry on this one: Militants in Iraq Take Over Four Cities, Make Off with Arms Cache and Nearly Half a Billion Dollars.

So they are backing the good terrorists and the bad terrorists.

The amount needed for the good terrorists is interesting, wouldn’t you say?

The bad terrorists make off with about a half billion dollars, and now the Obombya regime wants about a half billion dollars to arm and train the good terrorists.

You do the hokey pokey
and you turn yourself around
That’s what it’s all about.

Via: BBC:

President Barack Obama has asked the US Congress to approve $500m (£294m) to train and equip what he described as “moderate” Syrian opposition forces.

The funds would help Syrians defend against forces aligned with President Bashar al-Assad, the White House said.

The aid would also counter Islamist militants such as the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (Isis), it added.

Isis’s advance in neighbouring Iraq has led some in Congress to press Mr Obama to take action.

Tens of thousands of people have died and millions more have been displaced in three years of civil war in Syria, as rebels fight troops loyal to Mr Assad.
