Well, what a shock. Something that our ‘leader’ has decided to fund, has now crumbled. Pretty much the reverse Midas touch signature of this entire administration. Conservative Tribune reports:
President Barack Obama, in his supposed attempt to fight radical Islamic terror organizations, has suffered a major blow after “moderate” Syrian rebel group he backed announced its dissolution last weekend.
The Hazm movement, a Syrian militia with over five thousand fighters, recently lost several key battles with the Al Qaeda-affiliated militia Jabhat al Nusra.
The problem is that Obama armed Hazm — which, ironically, means “Determination” — with large shipments of advanced anti-tank TOW missiles — equipment that has now fallen into the hands of the savage radical Islamists of Jabhat al Nursra, the face of Al Qaeda in Syria.
In a recent statement from the group, they explained why they made the decision to dissolve their ranks despite Obama’s support.
“Given what is happening on the Syrian front, offenses by the criminal regime with its cronies against Syria as a whole, and Aleppo specifically, and in an effort to stem the bloodshed of the fighters, the Hazm movement announces its dissolution,” the statement read.
The Guardian reported that the leaders of Hazm announced that their members have now joined forces with the Shamiah Front, a group engaged in fighting Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s army that isn’t exactly trusted by Washington.
The Obama administration clearly lacks any level of clear vision on who they can and cannot trust in the confusing scheme of rebel groups currently in Syria and Iraq. Allegiances seemingly change daily.
By shipping a warehouse full of advanced anti-tank weaponry to Hazm who just folded into the hands of the enemy, Obama has now equipped enemy combatants with state-of-the-art weaponry that will no doubt be used against Western allies at some point in the near future.
The dissolution of Hazm is further evidence that Obama’s strategy — if it can be called that — in Syria is failing.
Just like just about everything else this administration tries to accomplish.
This is the kind of mess you would expect to happen in a third world country- not the United States. Thank you again, Obama, for ensuring that we will likely get attacked by our own weaponry. Better buy a lotto ticket now, because you are winning.
