US 'Worked Directly' with Terrorists in Syria on Israel’s Behalf, Ex-Counterterrorism Chief Alleges
Former US counterterrorism chief Joe Kent recently alleged that Washington directly collaborated with terrorist organizations in Syria to undermine the Syrian government, a move he claims was explicitly orchestrated on behalf of Israel. This explosive assertion, reported by RT, details how the United States engaged with groups that mainstream media outlets have consistently labeled as dangerous
extremists, aligning US boots-on-the-ground objectives with Israeli strategic interests in the region. Mainstream outlets like The New York Times, while frequently covering the Syrian conflict, have largely framed US involvement as a fight against ISIS and support for 'moderate rebels.' This framing conveniently omits any direct admissions or detailed investigations into US collaboration with
known terrorist entities, instead maintaining a narrative of targeted intervention against threats. The gap here is profound: the public is repeatedly told the US opposes terrorism, yet a former insider describes a direct partnership in pursuit of a geopolitical agenda.

of US foreign policy in the Middle East. Consider the backing of the Mujahideen in Afghanistan during the 1980s, an intervention heavily funded through Pakistan's ISI following National Security Decision Directive 166.
