Some movement? Umm, no...no matter how much Johnny Boy assures us to 'trust him' on this one, and especially after Syrian rebels have pledged loyalty to al-freakin-Qaeda!Newser: Both House and Senate intelligence committees have voted to stop sending military aid to Syrian rebels by freezing the funding intended to ship arms, sources say. According to the Hill, the decision was made last month, amid fears that the weapons would end up in the hands of Islamist militants. The Senate committee "voted to allow them to make some movement on this, but it’s restricted," says one insider. "It was a very restrictive amount." Syrian rebels do not appear to have received any new US arms, Reuters adds, and are confused by the hold-up.
