A newly released declassified audit from the US Department of Defense shows that negligent accounting by the military has resulted in the Pentagon not knowing what happened to more than $1 billion in arms and equipment meant for the Iraqi Army.
The Office of Inspector General for the Pentagon's findings from September 2016 was made public Wednesday as a result of a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request from human rights group Amnesty International.
Over $1 billion worth of arms and military equipment designated under the Iraq Train and Equip Fund (ITEF) and meant to assist the Iraqi government in combatting Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL), was not accounted for, the DOD audit found.

It would be extremely sloppy unless done on purpose. This proves that US was arming the rebels. You can get a lot of weapons and ammo with a billion dollars.

Aren't the Pentagon and ISIS on the same side? Temporarily. A trillion here, a trillion there and soon you are talking about real money.
