Pentagon Paying ISIS-Linked “Rebels” $400 Per Month to “Eventually” Fight Assad

Recently declassified Pentagon documents confirmed West's role in using radicals to topple Syria

 

The Pentagon announced Monday that it has begun paying “moderate”
Syrian rebels up to $400 per month to fight ISIS and eventually the
Syrian government.



The program, deemed “critical” by Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter,
aims to equip as many as 5,400 fighters within the next 12 months,
reports USA Today.



According to Pentagon spokeswoman Elissa Smith, roughly 6,000 Syrians
have already expressed interest in the program, with more than half
preparing to be vetted.



The program has reportedly taken months to move forward due to a lack
of fighters willing to “adhere to laws of war and pledge to conduct
themselves properly.”



The announcement raises several red flags given recently declassified Pentagon documents confirming Western governments’ regional support of al-Qaeda, a terrorist organization now deceptively labeled “moderate.”


In reality, as stated by USA Today, the alleged fight against ISIS, another group with documented ties to the West, is merely about creating an opposing force to bring down the Assad government.


“Their primary mission will be to protect their towns and villages
from ISIL fighters,” USA Today states. “Eventually, they are also
envisioned to become a viable opposition to the regime of President
Bashar Assad.”



As admitted by retired four-star General Wesley Clark in 2007, the
overthrow of Syria has been a goal of the Pentagon since at least 2001.
