The Pentagon and the CIA are involved in an embarrassing infighting over Syria:  the two US government's services are supporting different rebel groups.

The CIA saying alliances of convenience in the face of a mounting Russian-led offensive have created marriages of battlefield necessity, not ideology,” Nancy A. Youssef of the Daily Beast wrote, adding that the Pentagon and the intelligence community have busied themselves in a catfight over Syria.  

In late March 2016 Los Angeles Times reported that Syrian militants “armed by different parts of the US war machine” began to fight each other in the Aleppo region.

To make the matters even more complicated, it is well documented that since the very beginning the Obama administration was fully aware that it was supporting Islamists allied with al-Qaeda and even with Daesh.       By Sputnik News | June 14, 2016
