After US president Barack Obama's initial request on 26 June, 2014 for 
funding to arm those fighting the fascist regime of Bashar al-Assad, 
the media was full of stories like this 
<http://www.ktvn.com/story/25881313/president-obama-seeks-500-million-to-train-equip-syrian-rebels>:

    President Barack Obama is asking Congress for $500 million to
    train and arm vetted members of the Syrian opposition, as the U.S.
    grapples for a way to stem a civil war that has also fueled the
    al-Qaida inspired insurgency in neighboring Iraq.

Many on the so-called anti-imperialist /"Left"/ found this request 
somewhat embarrassing because they had been saying for years that 
Obama has always been the principal force funding and training Assad's 
opposition. So without offering something like a shred of evidence of 
previous funding, they simply claimed it and made reports like these.
