On Elizabeth O'Bagy (the chief US groupie of the Fee Syrian Army) an American correspondent in the Middle East sent me this: "so what they don't tell you is that shes a senior member of the Syrian Emergency Task Force the pro-FSA lobbying group which took mccain to syria and is pushing for intervention, meaning she s paid by a pro-FSA group."
