A CNN report back on May 27th, 2013 cited a statement from US Senator John McCain’s communications director that he had visited with anti-Assad “rebels” in Syria. The report noted that while in Syria, John McCain met with General Salem Idris, the leader of the Supreme Military Council of the Free Syrian Army. However, the FSA command reported additional information that was not included in the CNN report, specifically that John McCain also met with FSA Vice Chief of Staff of the Supreme Military Council Colonel Haytham Afisi (shown above and below), as well as Chief of Staff of the Supreme Military Council General Bashir, and Secretary of the Syrian Opposition Coalition Political Committee Hadi al-Bahra.

This post will focus on FSA Colonel Haytham Afisi and his associates by revealing them to be terrorists through their own Facebook posts. It will also present additional attached evidence that these men were likely behind the death of Jordanian pilot Muath al-Kassasbeh who was burned to death in a cage in 2015, an event which was aired on global television and attributed to ISIS.

Excerpt:

In a meeting with Senator John McCain Tuesday in southern Turkey, leaders of the Syrian Opposition Coalition and Supreme Military Council emphasized that increased U.S. support for the moderate opposition will benefit both the Syrian people and the United States in the international fight against terrorism. Leaders briefed Senator McCain on ongoing efforts to fight ISIS extremists, and stressed the importance of international support to the moderate opposition at this critical time. The $500 million program to train and equip vetted moderate opposition fighters requested by President Obama is urgently needed to hold the line against the advances of the Islamic extremist army of ISIS. The Free Syrian Army has been battling ISIS in the northern and eastern regions of Syria, where the Jihadist group has occupied territory and tortured and killed innocent civilians.

End excerpt –

Alas, there was, in actuality, no ‘moderate’ opposition and it has now been proven, although ignored by western mainstream media, that the US has been financing terrorists through the FSA all along. As proof of this, first, simply note the green, white and black flag of the FSA because you will be seeing it throughout this entire post, constantly mingled with the flags of ISIS and al-Nusra Front (al-Qaeda in Syria), as well as other terrorist groups operating within the FSA.

The New American – McCain Made Secret Trip to Syria to Meet U.S. Military, Anti-Assad Rebels

Excerpt:

This was McCain’s first visit to Syria since 2013. A CNN report back on May 27th, 2013 cited a statement from McCain’s communications director that he had visited with anti-Assad “rebels” in Syria. The report noted that while in Syria, McCain met with General Salem Idris, the leader of the Supreme Military Council of the Free Syrian Army. The support that McCain gave to the Free Syrian Army by means of his visit was problematic, however. A report from Breitbart on July 8, 2014 noted that several factions within the “moderate” rebel army may not have been so moderate after all. It observed: Reports coming out of eastern Syria Monday revealed that several factions within the Syrian opposition force known as the Free Syrian Army (FSA) have pledged services to the Islamic State, the group formerly known as the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS). Sources and eyewitnesses said that the FSA has handed over its weapons to the Islamic State in large numbers. The Free Syrian Army was said to be a “moderate” and “secular” force, which was used as the rationale by U.S. officials to supply the opposition force with weapons and training.

Sources told Homs, Syria-based Zaman Alwasl newspaper that several factions within the FSA, including Ahl Al Athar, Ibin al-Qa’im, and Aisha have pledged to support the Islamic State. The report noted that the Obama administration had delivered weapons, supplies, and CIA-sponsored training to the Free Syrian Army. The New American posted an article on May 25, 2013 that summarized the objections expressed by Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) during a hearing of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to discuss sending arms to the Syrian rebels. Senators Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) and Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) had co-sponsored a bill that authorized “critical support to the Syrian opposition through provision of military assistance, training, and additional humanitarian support.”

Paul had offered two amendments to the bill — one that would have forbidden the transfer of weapons to the rebel forces fighting to oust the government of Syrian president Bashar al-Assad, and another that would have prevented the use of U.S. military armed forces in Syria. But both of Paul’s amendments were rejected and the bill sailed through the committee, passing with bipartisan support by a vote of 15-3. Paul said afterwards that it is “a mistake to arm” vetted Syrian rebels to counter the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).

There is one further aspect of McCain’s recent visit to Syria that we should consider. That is whether of not McCain’s action constituted a violation of the Logan Act. As was noted in a recent article posted by The New American, the largely unknown Logan Act, which was passed more than 200 years ago, is a federal statute that makes it a crime for Americans to seek to influence the policies of foreign governments without official permission from U.S. authorities. The Logan Act reads: “Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.”
