Must-read by @MaxBlumenthal on how the "moderate rebels" armed by US & whitewashed by Western pundits are the same forces now slaughtering Kurds on Turkey's behalf. Amazing that Syria proxy war cheerleaders have the nerve to call its critics "apologists."

@MaxBlumenthal "Virtually the entire apparatus of anti-Assad insurgents armed and equipped under the Obama administration has been repurposed by the Turkish military to serve as the spearhead of its brutal invasion of northern Syria."
-@MaxBlumenthal
@MaxBlumenthal "Before, when their goal was regime change in Damascus, they had the blessing and wholehearted support of official Washington. But now that they are slaughtering members of a much more loyal US proxy force, their former patrons and enablers are rushing to denounce them."
