"Purple Shovel"? If this is an example of how the US arms its friends, I guess the Kurds should be grateful they're still on the Obama administration's spit list.

Meet The Obscure Company Behind America’s Syria Fiasco
A multimillion-dollar deal with a minuscule arms dealer led to the death of a US citizen, delays in arming Syrian rebels, and the purchase of weapons from a pro-Russia dictatorship — all for a pile of defective 30-year-old weapons.

Think about that for a second. We are, to this day, arming, funding, training, fucking ISIS. Thats who the "rebels" are.

This is your State Department, Ladies and Gents. May they one day understand the weight of misery that they have created throughout the world.

Why are we arming Syrian "rebels?" Whatever we give them will end up with ISIS.

With the entry of the Russians into Syria, in support of Assad, we (the USA) should be drawing a big sigh of relief, pulling out, and sending a card to Putin asking him to let us know if we can be of any assistance.

Someday Americans will be wary of doing business with Washington Dc, for fear of helping them ruin the country.
