Washington Post: This video shows the absurdity of the war in Syria in one single blown-up Humvee
The above video, reportedly recorded outside of Aleppo, Syria and posted online Tuesday, features rebels from the U.S.-backed Free Syrian Army firing a U.S.-supplied anti-tank guided missile at what it is clearly a U.S.-made Humvee.
Rarely do the weapons and equipment of a conflict come together in a single video to highlight how America now fights its wars, but there it is.
According to the caption on the video, the strike killed one occupant and the now-destroyed Humvee was mounted with a 14.5mm anti-aircraft gun.
WNU Editor: It is impossible to rationalize this .... unless you are an arms merchant selling to both sides, or a foreign power that has determined that a continuation in the conflict serves your interests more than peace.

The absurdity of Obama as CINC.
Contradiction solved.
It's actually incredibly easy to rationalize it: remember when ISIS got a huge portion of their equipment by conquering bases held by the US-supported Iraqi government?
Never attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity.
