U.S.-Backed ‘Moderate’ Rebels Behead a Child Near Aleppo
Members of an American-backed rebel group in Syria beheaded a young child in a grisly execution video.
The footage surfaced early Tuesday of members of Harakat Nour al-Din al-Zenki and a captured child in Handarat, near Aleppo. The young boy, who appears to be prepubescent, is then executed on the back of a pickup truck.
The gruesome videotaped murder of a child drew outrage on social media and the promise of an inquiry from the group’s leadership, which has previously received U.S.-made weapons and American funding. The group no longer gets such backing. But it’s also renewed questions about which rebels the American government has supported in Syria’s ongoing civil war.
<sigh> If only there were a staunch non-interventionist candidate for POTUS.
Just another in a far too long line of bad results created by sticking our nose in far too many places it didn't belong.
In this case, we need to be there. The US needs to destroy the al-Nusra Front (al-Qaeda and ISIS affiliate), and the Free Syrian Army (the so-called "moderate" rebels), and let the legitimate government of Bashar Assad rule. The US also should have supported the coup attempt on Erdogan's government, ISIS's main sponsor
Obama supported the fascist Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt. The rebels he and his Islamophilic Democrat party will support are just the same blood thirsty Jihadists.

I agree with most of your post but I don't think our foreign policy genius's do. (somebody up there doesn't) I suspect it has a lot to do with a pipeline still.
