Syrian government forces have captured a large number of weapons and ammunition, including US and Israeli-made rockets, in the framework of the ongoing security operation in the Damascus countryside.
Medium-size machine gun rounds, rifles, tank and artillery rounds as well as hundreds of Grad rockets and a large number of US made anti-tank missiles and Israeli 128 mm rockets were among the captured equipment.
Let’s take a moment to thank us taxpayers
All the more so since it would appear that these are most likely to end up in the hands of Hezbollah. You gotta love irony.
According to Tommy J., these will have to be delivered ASAP to nearest US embassy, with VAT paid to US State D.! :)
To keep all of this gear out of the hands of America’s enemies I suggest that they bring it home and sell it American citizens. The government gets revenue and we get ready for a possible coup against our duly elected president.
“The government gets revenue and we get ready for a possible coup against the fascist left socialists ” FIFY
It is apparent from the sheer number of these hidden caches that the militants – whether FSA or al Nusra – negotiated their surrenders and transit in bad faith. They handed over little of their functioning weapons caches and simply hid the bulk – on off-chance of using or selling them in future.
“Medium-size machine gun rounds…” I just love these well-educated writers.
Most of them don’t know the difference between a semi-automatic rifle and a semi-trailer truck.
I guess “medium” means something between about 7 and 8 mm? “Large” would be something over 12, and “small” something under 6?
When I first saw the pics I thought the ATF people had raided a Chicago neighborhood.
Interesting observation. Chicagoland, Illinois, USA is actually getting much safer since last year (2018). According to the sick media in ‘Murica they recorded “only 589” killings last year. That’s a celebratory stupendous improvement compared to 2017 – 650 killings and 2016 – 762 killings. So living conditions are becoming better and better in the great 2.65 million soul metropolis next to Lake Michigan. (On a side note, I would like to “acquire that Russian SPG-9 73 mm. recoilless gun in the first picture and a stack of ammo so I can remove some of my annoying neighbors here in the Big Apple, oops I meant Big Ghetto.)
LMAO, You should post on this site more often. :)
Thank you US taxpayer.
