Congresswoman Calls US Effort To Oust Assad “Illegal,” Accuses CIA Of Backing Terroists<\/a><\/h3>\n

One point we\u2019ve been particularly keen on driving home since the beginning of Russian airstrikes in Syria is that The Kremlin\u2019s move to step in on behalf of Bashar al-Assad along with Vladimir Putin\u2019s open \u201cinvitation\u201d to Washington with regard to joining forces in the fight against terrorism effectively let the cat out of the proverbial bag.<\/p>\n

That is, it simply wasn\u2019t possible for the US to explain why the Pentagon refused to partner with the Russians without admitting that i) the government views Assad, Russia, and Iran as a greater threat than ISIS, and ii) Washington and its regional allies don\u2019t necessarily want to see Sunni extremism wiped out in Syria and Iraq.<\/p>\n

Admitting either one of those points would be devastating from a PR perspective.\u00a0No amount of Russophobic propaganda and\/or looped video clips of the Ayatollah ranting against the US would be enough to convince the public that Moscow and Tehran are a greater threat than the black flag-waving jihadists beheading Westerners and burning Jordanian pilots alive in Hollywood-esque video clips, and so, The White House has been forced to scramble around in a desperate attempt to salvage the narrative.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well, it hasn\u2019t worked.<\/p>\n

With each passing week, more and more people are beginning to ask the kinds of questions the Pentagon and CIA most assuredly do not want to answer and now, \u00a0US Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard is out calling Washington\u2019s effort to oust Assad both \u201ccounterproductive\u201d and \u201cillegal.\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0In the following priceless video clip, Gabbard accuses the CIA of arming the very same terrorists who The White House insists are “our sworn enemy” and all but tells the American public that the government is lying to them and may end up inadvertently starting \u201cWorld War III.\u201d<\/p>\n
