"There are some big takeaways from Lieutenant General Michael Flynn’s interview.
Flynn, the director of the Department of Intelligence, reported directly to the White House, Joint Chiefs, and Secretary of Defense. Flynn had read the DIA report and said, “I paid very close attention to it- I argued about it.”
Hasan asked Flynn: “Did you say we should’t be supporting these groups?” Flynn answered, “Yes.”
Ultimately the Obama administration made the decision to arm radical jihadists instead of heeding intelligence that warned them of the rise of ISIS.
Flynn acknowledged that his warning against arming radical groups in Syria were ignored and that there was a “willful decision” to arm and support radical jihadists that ultimately gave rise to ISIS.
Independent journalists like Brad Hoff and Nafeez Ahmed have gotten it right while the mainstream media has been wrong or silent.

According to Flynn, a high level, critical document that was used to argue against supporting al-Qaeda in Syria to top officers in Washington."
