A source inside of Russia claims Syrian militants are firing American-made surface-to-air missiles at Bashar al-Assad's warplanes. Russia has supplied many of those warplanes, so they see the situation as American weapons shooting down Russian planes. Russian Gen. Nikolai Makarov said: "We have reliable information that Syrian militants have foreign portable anti-aircraft missile systems, including those made in the USA... it should be cleared up who delivered them." Prior to Makarov's comments, there had been "unconfirmed reports" of Syrian rebels using shoulder-mounted missiles. This came to light when Syrian rebels claimed to have shot down a fighter jet near the Iraq border in August. Some have suspected the missiles could be U.S. Stingers.  However, there is extant footage of Syrian opposition fighters using old Soviet SA-7 heat-seeking missiles to shoot at aircraft as well. Thus the bottom line is that confusion reigns, and Russia appears to be using the confusion to try to ascertain exactly where the U.S. stands.

If jihadists have surface-to-air missiles then it is better for us that they be Stingers (I won’t say why)

The best situation is where they have nothing but sticks as weapons.

Only an evil idiot would arm these animals.

[penelopesire]

I don’t believe he was trying to get the weapons out of the hands of Libyan jihadists. That is BS!! They are all the same people for cryin out loud!! Libyan terrorists are helping the Syrian terrorists in the whole miserable conflict in Syria. The whole thing is a cluster you know what and this is Obama’s dangerous policy setting the whole middle east on fire.

Catherine Herridge deserves to be more famous than Woodward and Bernstein. Hope she gets both the Pulitzer and Nobel!

According to sources Obama was in WH watching Benghazi in real time per guest on Judge Jeanine Pirro - Fox News...

[cherry]

there is always a reason these things just "happen".....I suspect that there is some very dangerous info being hidden, and perhaps, as some suggest, the attack was ordered to stop any "talking" by the Ambassador....

with these corrupt traitors...bamey boy and his ilk....ANYTHING is believable....

Obama has been arming jihadists out the wazzoo.

That’s the whole point of his existence.

The guest who said this was Lt. Colonel Anthony Shaffer

Three week delay of the FBI reaching Bengazi —had there been forensic evidence showing rebel use of US arms against a US Consulate...?

Syrian rebels?

No.

They’re IRGC.

He’s arming Hezbollah/MB/AQ/IRAN.

“the son of a Muslim father and stepson of Muslim stepfather, that his half-brothers in Kenya were Muslims, and that he was sympathetic to the Muslim agenda. He asked the Arabs to show patience.

Obama promised that once he overcame some domestic American issues (like healthcare reform), he would show the Muslim world how he would deal with Israel”

And, he is well-paid for it. $181,000,000 in September alone, only 2% of which is reportable: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10000872396390444223104578040471465823726.html

A mysterious Libyan ship — reportedly carrying weapons and bound for Syrian rebels — may have some link to the Sept. 11 terror attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Fox News has learned. 

If you look at page two of the ambassador’s itinerary it states he was meeting with a shipping company. This company handles all the ports in the country. I stated a few nights ago who is he arranging a port for ?

[penelopesire]

Dittos! I totally agree.

[American Constitutionalist]

At least motive is established... for the reason to allow Chris Stevens to die in the attack to keep him quit.

[blueunicorn6]

My understanding is that the sides line up like this:

Syrian Government - Russia, Iran, various groups in Lebanon

Syrian Rebels - USA, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Qatar

Your guess is as good as mine as to why anyone is supporting either side. Religion, tribal, economic, old allies?
