U.S. Alliance with FSA & ISIL in Six Photographs

Oct 1, 2014, Rick Sterling, Dissident Voice
The following six photographs confirm that a favorite “moderate rebel” leader, Abdel Jabbar al-Okaidi, is allied with ISIL.
The first photograph is from Spring 2013 and shows Okaidi with the American who has been the principal coordinator of US policy on Syria. The last two photographs are from a meeting days ago when Congressmen Adam Kinzinger (Rep Illinois) and George Holding (Rep. North Carolina) met with Okaidi and other “moderate rebels” in Turkey.
Other photos show Okaidi with ISIL fighters and being interviewed about his relationship with ISIL. The photographs are from videos identified at bottom.

By funding “moderate rebels” like FSA Colonel Okaidi, the US is in effective alliance with ISIL.
Under international law it is illegal to encourage, support and aid military and paramilitary activities against another State.
