Secret Pentagon Report Reveals US Government “created” ISIS?
Ever wonder where ISIS came from when you never heard a thing about this terrorist group until about a year ago?
Thanks to a lawsuit by Judicial Watch, a 2012 Defense Intelligence Agency assessment has been released (in heavily redacted form) that might answer how ISIS became so strong, so fast, and managed to form their Islamic State so quickly.
The report leaked online — ironically enough — the Sunday before Memorial Day in the United States.
In short, the report revealed the US Government did with its foreign policy what it always does — stick its nose into other people’s business and cause maximum blowback.
So let’s see how the Obama led US Gov helped create ISIS …
The US Government’s Foreign Policy …
It’s no secret (or maybe it is to most people?) that the US Gov has been involved in covert regime change operations since the late 40’s (after the US became the world’s leading superpower at the end of WWII).
Almost immediately, they started meddling in the Middle East, which is — at least partially — to blame for that region being in complete chaos.
This, by the way, is not at all speculation …
Years after these events take place, the Government quietly admits to it in some form or someone leaks the story. The mainstream media ignores the revelations and the American people never look into it.
It appears the rise of ISIS is another example of the US Government’s mistakes. Here’s the story …
Obama wanted regime change in Syria …
In short, Obama wanted Syria’s president Bashir al-Assad gone.
Speculation abounds as to why, but many believe it’s because Assad refused to sign an agreement with Qatar to let an energy pipeline run north to supply much of Europe and bypass Russia. Assad’s rationale for opposing it was “to protect the interests of [his] Russian ally, which is Europe’s top supplier of natural gas.”
Obviously, the energy in the Middle East — gas and oil — is super valuable and the US wants to be in control of it (not Russia).
So Obama wanted Assad gone …
According to investigative reporter Nafeez Ahmed in Medium, the “leaked document reveals that in coordination with the Gulf states and Turkey, the West intentionally sponsored violent Islamist groups to destabilize Assad, despite anticipating that doing so could lead to the emergence of an ‘Islamic State’ in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).
“According to the newly declassified US document, the Pentagon foresaw the likely rise of the ‘Islamic State’ as a direct consequence of the strategy, but described this outcome as a strategic opportunity to “isolate the Syrian regime.”
In other words, the people in Washington thought that they could play chess with the Middle East and that all the islamic world were pawns they could move around on a board to achieve their end goals.
