Obama approves aid package to Syrian 'rebels' [Oh. I thought there was a deficit? WHY are US taxpayers paying mercenaries and terrorists to destabilize foreign governments?] 13 Apr 2012 US President Barack Obama has approved non-lethal US aid, including communications equipment and medicines for Syria's 'rebels,' and plans to increase the package over time, a US official said Friday. The administration had previously indicated it would take such a step, in line with an initiative by the international "Friends of Syria" Exxon Mobil group to bolster opponents of President Bashar al-Assad's government.
