Lebanon - Hezbollah armed with American M4's and even look like US Soldiers

This is a response to the propaganda going on by pro-Assad propaganda forces that simply because a Syrian FSA soldier carries an M16, he got it from the americans.
If that were to be the case, then the USA must be loving Hezbollah in Lebanon since many of their men carry M16s or even newer M4 models and they even look like American Soldiers.

Think about it :)

  • Does that mean every ak-47 on the battlefield comes from Russia? Do you know how many companies are licensed to build our weapons?

  • Third party arms sales, that is all. They got them from someone we sold them too, not from us directly. Plus they can be made other places, not just in the USA. The fact they modeled their uniforms after ours was their decision, not ours.

    • @NSAID1010 Hezbollah has proven military success and I don't think there are plans for fighting in multiple environments.

      2006? They stood their ground and was able to hit back at Israel. Even the Israeli's admit the whole war was a failure. Given the fact that Israel outnumbers Hezbollah with every advantage they weren't successful.

  • The gear could and probably was stolen from Lebanon, US still supports Lebanon with arms; so a few thefts here and there. With some illegal support by Hezbollah members in the military, and viola Hezbollah is using our weapons.

    • @Kmanbay Hezbollah is listed as a terrorist organisation by the U.S government, unlikely.

    • @Epsimrove what do you mean unlikely. The guy is correct. Wait a minute. You think Hezbollah and Lebanon are one entity? Lol. I don't think you know your politics son

    • @Noalias I thought he was suggesting the direct arming of Hezbollah. Regardless Hezbollah is still a less likely candidate to arm the FSA, especially with the arming of Libyan rebels by Nato.

    • @Epsimrove dude. We can only speculate. On assumptions this is pointless to argue over. There are so many black market weapon suppliers who knows what's going on. Maybe just maybe the weapon manufactures. Because us doesn't make these weapons. People confuse a us made weapon as if it's a government made weapon. Lol 2 different things here. So yea back to what I was saying so what a us company black market sale to this guy to that guy to him to her to his brother to that man and viola! M16 mak More..

    • @Noalias The Syrian crisis is saturated with politics, although yes it is all speculation. The reason I care about this is because given the volatile nature of the region any large scale military conflict would undoubtedly affect us. These people aren't losers, they are human beings.

  • It's more likely that these are cheap poorly made Iranian knock-offs.

    • @Epsimrove Check this Iranian website under Assault Rifle/S-5.56:
      http://diomil.ir/en/aig.aspx

      Hezbollah get most of their stuff from Iran.

    • @exPFC Wintergreen Yes Hezbollah does receive military aid from Iran. Although concerning Syria it isn't in Iran's interest to overthrow the Assad regime; leaving only a few culprits.

    • @exPFC Wintergreen yeah, but would you want to buy an Iranian knockoff for 100 bucks or a Saudi surpluss (brand new) for 134.99?
