i'm certain he wasn't the one who dropped them there or the one who said where to put them.

Not good, but if you saw how many made it to the Kurds, this single crate wouldn't seem like such a big deal.

Only a truly deranged mind could blame this on the President. It's akin to blaming him for a friendly fire accident.

Well, it an obvious and expected consequence of the policy he chose.

However, it does seem to be the exception rather than rule so I personally see no huge problem here. Weapons get captured in a war. But I'd rather see them have to fight for them as opposed to just dropping them in their lap.

You mean his policy as to arm the Kurds? You would do otherwise?

No, not exactly. I mean the overall policy of fighting from 20,000 ft or whatever.

However, I'm not too comfortable arming anyone in Syria either.

We should really be working with Assad, since he already has logistics and armed forces in place.
But if we are going to work with opposition, we should not be politicizing each mishap that happens. Obama is not there picking drop sites, it's the military doing it.

Given this policy in the past has proven to arm ISIS. I think he certainly should receive criticism for using the same policy expecting a different result.
