A botched weapons program run by the CIA and several Arab intelligence agencies to arm Syrian rebels is being compared to the ATF's botched gun-running operation Fast and Furious, which ran guns to Mexican drug cartels. [More]#@!***!! will you &$#@!*!!~ people stop with the #@!*#@! "botched" already?
Yes, the U.S. makes sure foreign scumbags get guns, directly and indirectly. Any comparison beyond that is superficial, as the intent of "gunwalking" was quite different.
PJ Media ought to know that.

How do you know they aren't connected?
ReplyDeleteI don't even know where to begin to try to answer that except to refer you to my "intent of gunwalking' link and then refer you to start reading through my journalists guides (see "Complete Guide" click-through in sidebar). F&F was to salt the mine to enact new disarmament edicts. The Syrian thing is to effect geopolitical change, and the guns did not come from U.S. FFLs.
