The CIA Has Given So Many Weapons to Syrian Jihadis, ISIS is Now Selling Them on Facebook
According to Foreign Desk News,
Jihadis in Syria are using Facebook as a marketplace to buy, sell and barter a wide variety of American-made weapons and munitions ranging from rocket launchers to machine guns.
A Facebook page called “The first weapons market in the Idleb countryside” showcases posts withphotographs of weapons, claimed to be CIA-supplied, inviting buyers to contact page administrators privately using popular messaging applicationWhatsapp to discuss sales and transactions.
An AGS-17 Soviet-era grenade launcher is listed for $3,800 and below that a thermal camera made by Oregon-based company FLIR, is listed alongside posts advertising the sale of 105mm cannon shells.
Weapons like TOW and MANPAD missile launchers, which the CIA has provided to rebel groups in Iraq and Syria, and can pose serious threats to civilian and military jets, are also advertised on the page.
Since Facebook has banned all talk of weapons sale and trading on their social media platform, the pagehas since been removed, however, not before they received thousands of likes and potentially unloaded countless weapons.
