AP News: US poised to vet possible arms for Syrian rebels
Seriously? I can understand their fears about al-Qaeda (although I am sure there are some US officials who secretly fund them as they have in the past) but in what parallel universe would Hizbullah have access to weapons intended for the FSA?
“The effort, U.S. officials told The Associated Press, would vet members of the Free Syrian Army and other groups to determine whether they are suitable recipients of munitions to fight the Assad government and to ensure that weapons don’t wind up in the hands of al-Qaida-linked terrorists or other extremist groups such as Hezbollah that could target Israel.”
