We're Betting on the Syrian Rebels? The ones that Signed a "non-aggression" Cease Fire w/ISIS?

By Elizabeth Nelson

Okay, when are we going to realize that Romney was right again about Obama, that he has a history of not pick the winners and losers, that he picks the losers in everything, and he's done it again in betting on the Syrian Rebels to "defeat ISIS" to ensure our Safety. President Barack Obama plans to outline in an address to Americans an expanded military and political effort to combat Islamic militants in Syria and Iraq, and urge Congress to quickly give him authority to arm Syrian opposition forces

What could go wrong arming and training Syrians Rebels, aside from the fact that they hate us and why they will fight for ISIS. Guess what, ISIS and those Syrian Rebels that we wanted to arm with knowledge and whatever arms we send to them have just signed a Cease Fire with ISIS. Moderate Syrian rebels and the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) reportedly struck a cease-fire deal on Friday, according to a group that has monitored Syria's civil war. The groups agreed to a non-aggression pact in which they promised not to attack each other.

The development could influence members of Congress to vote “no” on an authorization to train and equip moderate rebel groups as early as next week. The White House has requested the authorization, but some lawmakers have already been skeptical the opposition groups can be trusted.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a monitoring group based in the United Kingdom, said the groups reached the agreement in a suburb of Damascus, Syria’s capital.

Under the deal, "the two parties will respect a truce until a final solution is found and they promise not to attack each other because they consider the principal enemy to be the Nussayri regime,” Agence France-Presse reported. Continue reading The Hill

Why would they entertain a Cease-fire? Oh, uh, maybe it's not a "cease-fire" it's a, "non-aggression pact," just like Obama's, "ISIS isn't ISLAMIC" and we were at "war" with al-Qaeda, we're just sissy slapping ISIS.  There is a reason the Rebels are being civil, because the enemy of my enemy is my friend.  

Just like al-Qaeda, they were once fighting alongside the rebels. Yes, just like al-Qaeda before they kicked them out, for being to barbaric. We conservatives saw this coming, but no one was listening.  I'll repeat myself, one more time .... the Syrian Rebels (and HAMAS) are fighting with ISIS, just like Boko Haram.

Nussayri is a pejorative term for the Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shiite Islam to which President Bashar al-Assad belongs.  Syria’s armed opposition initially welcomed jihadists including Islamic State members in their fight against Assad.   Continue Reading Yalibnan.com

Once in the family, always in the family. “This underlines serious frustration with lack of US-backing to [Free Syrian Army] opposition in fight vs Assad,” he tweeted.  

So, the moral of this story:

If you want something done right, we have to do it ourselves.
