For instance he confirms that the West is (still) supporting the wrong side in Syria - the Sunni mujahideen - and has worked to defeat relatively secular regimes in Egypt, Libya and Syria. Why? Christian leaders in Syria have expressed satisfaction with the Assad regime's treatment of them - before and after the war commenced. The Senator confirms this. He discusses the supply of American weapons to the IS via Libya and American logistic support for the IS during the war. This fits the information I have seen. Staggering - again, why?
He expresses great reservations about Turkey's Erdogan as I have - here and here. Despite the spin he may have been exposed to on his trip (and despite the well-meaning Libertarian worldview of the interviewers) I still think the information is largely accurate and well worth considering.
