Are these the same “rebel forces” we’re supporting in Syria to overthrow Assad?
If so, what a real big mess this has turned out to be.
Obama is Now Officially Arming the Syrian Rebels

Actually, I think that arming of the Syrian rebels was what Benghazi was all about and why the US opened a mission there where they had a CIA installation. Much there that hasn’t been explained.
I can see no valid reason to dedicate any Tomahawk platform to deal with on-the-move insurgents. Especially at between $1M and $1.5M apiece. Air cap and drones with $60K Hellfires are much better, IMO.
I think he just wants to waste the Tomahawks.
