Islamic State Created By Us To Control Middle East

"As the video of jubilant ISIS members extolling their bloody conquests slipped by, I began to fast forward to get through the madness, but I froze when I saw ISIS thugs attacking captured Iraqis.

"Many of the men being taunted, tortured and killed were leaders of the Sahwa, the Sunni militants who once fought against the American military and the Iraqi government before they realized that their bigger enemy was al Qaeda and joined us in the fight. U.S. forces, grateful for their support, dubbed them Sons of Iraq."

Thirteen months after Americans made it clear they would not tolerate another Libya in Syria, IS has risen just in time for the mid-terms.

"Only those who watch the news and ignore history" are surprised:

"Much like Al Qaeda, the Islamic State (ISIS) is made-in-the-USA, an instrument of terror designed to divide and conquer the oil-rich Middle East and to counter Iran’s growing influence in the region..."

"America’s relationship with Al Qaeda has always been a love-hate affair.

"Depending on whether a particular Al Qaeda terrorist group in a given region furthers American interests or not, the U.S. State Department either funds or aggressively targets that terrorist group.

"Even as American foreign policy makers claim to oppose Muslim extremism, they knowingly foment it as a weapon of foreign policy.

"The Islamic State is its latest weapon that, much like Al Qaeda, is certainly backfiring.

"ISIS recently rose to international prominence after its thugs began beheading American journalists.

"Now the terrorist group controls an area the size of the United Kingdom."

The so-called "War on Terror" is primarily a pretext for maintaining an oversized US military; IS only exists because it serves that purpose.

It is interesting how one of today's biggest media names was playing a coverup role in one of the major "deep state" investigations of thirty years ago:

13 Shocking Facts About Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller - Global Research


"Failure to Aggressively Prosecute the BCCI Scandal

"The BBC noted:

"[Mueller] is also known for leading the probe into the 1991 collapse of the Luxembourg-registered Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI).

"Williams Safire wrote in the New York Times..."

"For more than a decade, the biggest banking swindle in history worked beautifully. Between $5 billion and $15 billion was bilked from governments and individual depositors to be put to the most evil of purposes — while lawmen and regulators slept..."

"Mueller’s handling of the BCCI scandal as the point man for the Justice Department was widely criticized.

"As noted by a Senate report written by Senators Kerry and Brown:

"Over the past two years, the Justice Department’s handling of BCCI has been criticized in numerous editorials in major newspapers, including the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, and the New York Times, reflecting similar criticism on the part of several Congressmen, including the chairman of the Subcommittee, Senator Kerry; the chief Customs undercover officer who handled the BCCI drug-money laundering sting, Robert Mazur; his superior at Customs, Commissioner William von Raab; New York District Attorney Robert Morgenthau; former Senate investigator Jack Blum, and, within the Justice Department itself, the former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, Dexter Lehtinen."

We should also recall how lifelong Republican Bob Mueller failed to adequately explain to the American people exactly how two planes collapsed three steel-framed skyscrapers into their footprints on 911.
