Evan McMullin's hypocrisy exposed.
International relations professor Max Abrahms recently tweeted1:
"We relied on Al Qaeda types for regime change in Libya and Syria. Al Qaeda has been a feature not a bug of our policies."
Evan McMullin replied to this with the following tweet2:
It appears Evan McMullin has a very short memory, because in August 2016 he admitted that Max Abrahms was correct:
"My role in the CIA was to go out & convince Al Qaeda operatives to instead work with us."3
The internet never forgets, Evan. Bad news for liars with short memories.
As a reminder, the Hillary Clinton emails available on Wikileaks4 revealed that back in 2012 while Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State, she was advised that 'Al-Qaeda is on our side in Syria'.
In addition to Evan McMullin's tweet, numerous international observers have made claims regarding the CIA training and supplying weapons to Al-Qaeda linked rebels.
As a reminder, in 2013 Obama's CIA began delivering weapons to the Syrian 'moderate rebels'. In the same year, London based global defense consultancy group IHS Jane's reported that:
* 10,000 of the estimated 100,000 insurgent fighters were linked to Al-Qaeda.
* As many as 35,000 belonged to powerful factions that were fighting for an Islamic State.
* Only around 30% of rebel forces were friendly to the West.
* 70-75% of forces against Assad were jihadists.
