...but what they don't tell you is that "rebels" are mostly not Syrians but rather mercenaries from over 80 countries who belong to, or fight alongside, the Al Nusra Front, which is Al Qaeda's affiliate in Syria. Confused? Don't be! All through the US military interventions in Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, Libya, and Iraq, the USA has used Al Qaeda as its foot soldiers on the ground. Syria is just the latest country to suffer at the hands of the Americans and their terrorist mercenaries.
