NOT provide arms to the Free Syria army. These weapons will eventually end up in the hands of US hostiles (fact).

This petition is to urge our government to avoid history repeating itself. As much of a heated debate the atrocities in Syria have become, arming Syrian freedom fighters is ultimately going to lead to 1) weapons leaking back into the hands of those who intend to harm the US, Western nations, and India and 2) spending enormous amounts of money to provide weapons and then attempt to purchase them back. I would encourage anyone reading this petition to look into what happened during the Russian invasion in Afghanistan and invest some time into looking at WHY the Middle East is in the condition it is right now. Extremists are being bred in the midst of chaos, and even those who are not extremists find the West to be invaders of their land and especially despise the fact that we back Israel.
