How many fighters does $42 million get you?

Yes! You can complain about millions and I'll complain about trillions. Fair enough

 

You don't get to "trillions" going missing until you first have "millions" going missing. Of course, you'd understand this if you took the time to think. But keep on sticking to your stance which lacks merit, accountability, and common sense. It's the Gator trifecta!

Wonder how much we wasted here arming al.Qaeda

 

 

US-trained Division 30 rebels 'betrayed US and hand weapons over to al-Qaeda's affiliate in Syria'

 

Pentagon-trained rebels in Syria are reported to have betrayed their American backers and handed their weapons over to al-Qaeda in Syria immediately after re-entering the country.

 

Fighters with Division 30, the moderate rebel division favoured by the United States, surrendered to the al-Qaeda-affiliated Jabhat al-Nusra, a raft of sources claimed on Monday night.

 

Division 30 was the first faction whose fighters graduated from a US-led training programme in Turkey which aims to forge a force on the ground in Syria to fight against Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (Isil).

 

A statement on Twitter by a man calling himself Abu Fahd al-Tunisi, a member of al-Qaedas local affiliate Jabhat al-Nusra, read: "A strong slap for America... the new group from Division 30 that entered yesterday hands over all of its weapons to Jabhat al-Nusra after being granted safe passage.

 

"They handed over a very large amount of ammunition and medium weaponry and a number of pick-ups."
