Anyhow, as for the American weapons, they’ll probably only be used for disguises, rather than actual attacks. US weapons are like US people: they can do astounding things when they work, but are so fussy and high-maintenance that only Americans can make them work. The weapons we gave Fatah are probably all in Iraq right now, being used by teams of Al-Qaeda troops disguised as American troops, raping children for Al-Jazeera’s cameras.
