Here's some news from another angle because I doubt our media would make this public. What do any of you think? Discuss?

PressTV-'US erasing evidence of its ISIL support'

The United States is trying desperately to “erase” any evidence of support for Daesh terrorists, says Scott Bennett, a former US Army psychological warfare officer.

He made the remarks in an interview with Press TV on Wednesday when asked about a report that the US military admitted its airstrikes in Syria "may have resulted in civilian casualties" over the past several days.

The US military's Central Command (CENTCOM) said in a statement on Tuesday that it launched multiple attacks against Daesh terrorists in Syria during last week.

It said US warplanes may have targeted civilians in their strikes near the cities of Raqqah, Dayr al-Zawr, and Shaddadah.

Bennett said this is not surprising, but “it is an indicator of the desperation that’s beginning to emerge from the Obama administration there, rushing as fast as they can to erase the evidence of their own complicity and financing and training of the ISIS (Daesh) mercenaries.”

Daesh terrorists left “Saudi Arabia and various parts of the North African and Persian Gulf country Wahhabi Takfiri Salafist countries,” he said, adding “they all went into Syria on the checks and dollars and chips and planes and Humvees that the United States and Great Britain provided.”

Now, “the US senses the world opinion being turned against it with regards to its interventionism, its policies of militant interventionism beginning to blow back on them,” he noted.

He went on to say that “the United States is taking a quick desperate action to try to obliterate the evidence and destroy everything that may be linked back to them.”

“The United States is trying desperately to save face, trying to salvage what reputation that it may have left in the Middle East,” he added.

Daesh terrorists still control parts of Iraq and Syria. They are engaged in crimes against humanity in the areas under their control.

US warplanes have been conducting airstrikes against Daesh in Iraq since August 2014. Some Western states have also participated in some of the strikes in Iraq.

Since September 2014, the US and some of its Arab allies have been carrying out airstrikes against Daesh inside Syria without any authorization from Damascus or a UN mandate.
 
US support was for the FSA and Kurds

I don't know about that, but this article says the US supported ISIS & is now trying to erase any evidence of that. The article is from Iranian press

There are around 1,000+ groups. I don't know them all but I do know some of them.
There is a fluidity as needs and circumstances change, they do what they must to survive, but that is typical of many mideast militia groups

Not an area of white hats, not even among the western forces.

Never has been

What doesn't give me a warm and fuzzy is knowing that Turkey has the biggest arsenal of NATO'S nukes.
 
Here's something I discovered the other day. Ambassador Stevens had been not only working with Qaddafi's opposition, he was working with Turkey regarding the arming of anti Assad groups.

And this...

It is incontestable that the Obama administration has worked closely with the Islamist government of Turkey in efforts to arm and train “rebels” in Syria.

Stevens’s last meeting on the night of September 11, 2012, right before the State Department’s Benghazi compound was attacked, was with Turkey’s consul general, Ali Sait Akin.

et al,

Scott Bennett is not what he claims to be; certainly not a Special Ops asset.

OK, there are lots of guys that tell "fish stories" now and then. But this guy is something else.

A big problem I see with this.....is the fact the article is from Iranian press and that means if what Bennett told them is BS, they will still believe it

FSA tag teams with al Nusra (AQ in Syria) and the Kurds don't have a warm and fuzzy for the US anymore because Obama and NATO are allowing Erdogan to bomb the shit out of them.

Most of the Middle East hasn't had the fuzzies for US in many years

I think Egypt is rated number one as the "we really hate America's guts" now. After we gave the Egyptian people the Muslim Brotherhood, I can see why they feel that way.

But the information that the CIA was actively involved with Turkey, Qatar and Syria and directing money and weapons has been out there for years.

What's sad is that they were using the Syrian Muslim Brotherhood to funnel the weapons to the jihadists errrr rebels.

I mean what could possibly go wrong?

:lol:

Hell's bells the New York Times did a huge piece on this back in 2012.

Maybe so now....but we've been hated over there for many years. Long before Gaddafi or the hostage crisis 79-81....they hold a grudge & don't forget it
