Fast and Furious: Syrian Edition.
Have the Syrian rebels been supplied Surface to Air shoulder fired missiles? In recent testimony to Congress, State Department Officials acknowledged that 10,000 to 20,000 of those are missing or unaccounted for in Lybia.
Too bad it didn’t crash into the ground and do that right on top of the folks saying all the akbars.
Exactly.
Supplying al Qaeda with Surface to Air shoulder
fired weapons was a PRIME PLAN of the US State Dept, Obama,
Clinton, Huma, and Holder. First, Syria, and
then all commercial flights will be the target,
as they planned.
And how funny will it be when one of these surface to air missiles is used against a heavy airliner in Europe or here in the US?
You can thank the democRATS for the unraveling of the Mideast.
I've seen a lot of helicopters shot down and they never go up like this!
It’s almost as if some “conservatives” want Syria to go Islamist like Egypt.
Could the fuel lead to an explosion like this?
Probably a Soviet MANPAD design in the double digits.
You’re right. Watching the video at the end after the initial fiery explosion, the way it blew up in the sky in a strange black cloud the way it did,it didn’t seem like the helicopter met its fate via missile.
So now we know what Ambassador White was up to in Benghazi. Pity it turned out so badly for him.

20,000 shoulder launched rockets missing in Libya. I think I know where one of them went.
They screamed Allahu Akbar when they hit it. I doubt these are akin to the Founding Fathers, no matter what McCain, Romney and Obama think. There is bipartisan support for these rebels, and it is more idiocy.
They do.
Hope and pray zero doesn’t decide he needs to inject American air forces into Syria for a poll bump.
Yes it is rather pathetic seeing some of the ignorance spewed on here relating to this subject. The same people who were all over Obama for Libya and Egypt are cheering for exactly the same thing in Syria. Yeah lets turn the entire middle east into a sunni extremist paradise. It is no surprise that Qatar is funding these terrorists, they(along with Saudi Arabia) also happen to fund the majority of mosque constructions around the world. This is just another way to spread their brand of islam around the world.
Don’t get me started on this “impartial envoy”, the same man who brokered a peace treaty in lebanon giving syria overlordship over lebanon, stripped christians of any power they might have had and put the power firmly in the hands of sunni muslims, who further enforced their position in the country by promptly naturalizing 250000 palestinians which amounted to roughly 8-10% of the population at the time.
Personally I see the sunni threat as equal if not far greater than the iranian shiite threat, especially due to the sunni in chief.
