United States Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said Thursday that his country would continue to support moderate rebel forces in Syria, but will withhold non-lethal assistance to the rebels until it can assess who is in control of arms depots and border crossings.
According to AFP, Hagel told reporters that setbacks for Syrias Western-backed opposition are a big problem and the United States is assessing the damage.

Pity. The moderate rebels(an oxymoron) have been killed by the islamists, killed by the SAA, or have surrendered to the SAA.

Sgt. Hagel needs to direct the DoD to spend more time supporting the US Military, instead of kissing the boots of Obama and his Muslim terriorist buddies.

Hagel and the band of incompetents are wandering in eternal darkness with a solar powered lamp searching for a moderate muslim that doesn’t exist.
Stupid is as stupid does.

A "moderate" muslim is a muslim who hasn't actually appeared in an internet video killing a Christian or a Jew - yet.
