Arming the Syrian Rebels and the EU

BBC News: Reports that the UK Government and France want the EU to ease its ARMS embargo against the Syrian Rebels.

Lets Get Real:

The UK and France should tell the EU either allow the West to arm the Syrian rebels or the arms embargo will have to come to an end, the Assad Regime is being armed by Iran and Russia, the Assad Regime has bought in Hezbollah terrorists from Lebanon, this has helped them in their fight against the rebels.  The total death toll in the Syrian Civil War has been placed between eight and hundred thousand, the rebels  are being pushed back, the lack of Western help has allowed franchised Al Qaeda groups to become the major fighters.    This in the long term does not help, Syria, Israel and the West.    The feckless Obama Administration drew a red line in the sand when it stated that if chemical weapons were used the US would ACT, the US has not acted  and the Oval of late has given the impression that it no longer sees reality by stating that the War on Terror is OVER, it takes two sides to end a WAR, not the hollow words of President Obama.   Lets arm the moderate rebels, if there are any left, lets give the people of Syria a chance at freedom.
