Ten Reasons Confirming that ISIS is a U.S. Creation
Published in Albawaba on 30 - 12 - 2015

The United States of America (U.S.), has admitted it has under-estimated the power of the so-called Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, (ISIS) and Congress has demanded a revision of U.S. strategy.
The support provided to the Arab fighters by the CIA is the reason behind the creation of Al Qaida, which laid the foundation stone for the Islamic State.
The Islamic State, also known as ISIS did not grow out of the blue, its origins are well-known. History has revealed how this so-called "State" was born. There is a general agreement that it did not emerge suddenly but was heralded by several preliminary manifestations. Among these manifestations was the well-designed U.S. agenda drawn up to sponsor it, be that at the onset of its formation, or even when the U.S. turned a blind eye to its expansion, up to the point that its slogan of "fighting the allied forces led by America" became a strong reason for its continued existence and expansion.
Among the indicators that the U.S. and ISIS have interests in common, is the continuous American patronage of ISIS from the start. The American reaction to ISIS' control of huge areas in western Iraq and Syria was quite limited, as reported by most military analysts. It was well below the kind of reaction required for confrontation, although the U.S. is supposed to be the leader of the international allied force.
This confrontation did not actually achieve any kind of victory on the ground, and ISIS is still in control of vast areas and expanding to new ones.
Strangely enough, the U.S. President justifies ISIS' expansion by saying that U.S. Intelligence had belittled it and under-estimated its strength, despite the fact that his country is spearheading the international allied force fighting it. We can link this to Congress' criticism of the U.S. strategy with regard to ISIS.
Discovering the link between ISIS' evolution and international intelligence is not a question of simply analyzing the phenomenon, but rather it is a matter of basing it on political fact. This is evidenced by a relationship that has been declared and publically nurtured, with neither party attempting to cover it up, especially at the beginning. As matters evolved, the U.S. portrayed itself as the leader of a war against terror, so any talk of it supporting terrorism was unbelievable, while ISIS considered that it was the spearhead for establishing an Islamic state.
The contradiction here becomes very obvious. The U.S. fighting terror cannot support ISIS. On the other hand, ISIS freely practicing its right to a state sees the U.S. as the devil's head, along with all the other countries siding with it. ISIS cannot imagine that any country was behind its inception or ever gave it any support. It sees itself as acting on its own initiative, carrying out the solemn duty and essential role of establishing an Islamic state.
The United States of America has helped establish ISIS; it was actually never out of the picture. This "State" was born in reaction to the U.S. military forces invading Iraq in 2003. The nascent, armed organizations found a very fertile environment for Jihad (struggle) and an excuse for entering Iraq, on the pretext of defending the country against the U.S. invasion. These ideas led to the establishment of an armed organization trying to fight the U.S. at the beginning, or to enter Iraq using that excuse. Later on, the U.S. supported the organization, while claiming to fight it.
The U.S. support of Jihadist organizations in Iraq was aimed at confronting the Shiite power, especially since these organizations regarded Shiites as infidels and outcasts; therefore they believed it was a duty to fight them. Therefore, the U.S. created this situation in Iraq in order for the country to be divided, after a period of struggle between the Sunni, Shiite and Kurdish areas.
The American sponsorship of jihadist organizations in Iraq is not limited to the initial direct financial support. It also includes providing the necessary nurturing environment for them, since this will help America achieve its goal. There were numerous other indirect forms and means of support, some of these were evidenced in the prolonged delay in confronting this "State", and the eventual, extremely feeble confrontation, even with the "huge" coalition collected for this purpose. For this confrontation to be effective, it was supposed to last several years, so as to actually eradicate the "State". Elimination becomes very hard to achieve if only air strikes are launched without ground troops, assuming that this should only take weeks, or maybe months according to military estimates. That is where the importance of the point mentioned earlier arises, that the Islamic State is actually a product of the intelligence agencies.
There are ten reasons by way of which we can confirm that the creation of the "Islamic State" was sponsored by the U.S. The beneficiary of its existence and spread, for the achievement of its political and military goals, is also the U.S. The emergence of these organizations has actually made that possible.
The American CIA did support the Arab fighters, the so-called Arab Jihadists, in the war in Afghanistan. These were the initial nuclei for the Islamic State in Iraq later on. Aboumossab Al Zarkawy took advantage of the Afghani arena to train his military formations before moving to Iraq in 2004. In addition, he himself was a product of American and Arab support for fighters battling the Russians at the beginning, that is, before redirecting his struggle to fighting the U.S. in Iraq.
A transformation took place within the Tawheed wa Al Jihad and its name was changed to Al Qaida in Mesopotamia. This group began gradually to relinquish its loyalty to Al Qaida and to spread within Iraq. It called itself the Islamic State in Iraq, then it added Syria and finally it shortened the name to the Islamic State, on the assumption that there were more lands to be added later.
The U.S. is responsible for the support of these armed Takfiri organizations and groups which consider others disbelievers, thus causing the emergence of a fearful phantom which it has nurtured, or at least failed to confront, for years. Whether the U.S. has recognized the size of the danger posed by these groups or not, is therefore beside the point. Once awakened by the obvious threat, it decided to fight them and started a coalition of many countries, assuming that people might eventually forget what it has done, and their little fish memories will not be able to retain old information for long.
The U.S. helped the Arab fighters in Afghanistan to achieve a certain goal, which was conquering the Russian bear. These fighters with their drilling camps, moved to Pakistan after the end of the Afghan war. Osama Bin Laden tried to archive the names of these fighters in what he called later on the "Qaedat Al Bayanat" or the Database, so as to have a register of "Mujahdeen" (religious fighters) ready to defend Islamic territories that are subject to being seized. At the same time he was trying to defend those fighters who had torn up their passports on their arrival in Afghanistan to fight and who had no way of going home. Simultaneously, the Pakistani intelligence was getting rid of some of them by way of one-way air trips. Therefore, the U.S. had summoned the jinni, but it failed to exorcise it, even after waging a war in October 2001 as a reaction to the blowing up of the twin towers.
Most of the Arab nations adopted the American viewpoint, and they all gave support and prepared fighters. But they did not send regular army men so as to avoid a declaration of war on their part as such a declaration could have sparked a third world war. So these countries organized armies from members of organizations holding a firm religious belief and armed them to fight. These countries suffered severely later on.
In this context the U.S. did exploit the Jihad spirit that prevails within Islamic Jihadist groups to be used to combat its enemy, Russia, within an optimal period; an enemy that once shared leadership of the world with the U.S. In this spirit it turned the battle in favor of these organizations, though they looked feeble when compared to the regular army of one of the strongest forces in the world.
The U.S. entered Iraqi territory on March 20, 2003, alleging it wanted to oust an unjust dictator and establish democracy, among other reasons. Another pretext was the refusal of Iraq to surrender its development plans for nuclear and chemical arms. But until the exit of U.S. forces in December 2011, all that was actually witnessed there was the nurturing, implanting, and harboring of these Jihadist groups out of which the "Islamic State" emerged.
This state moved on solid ground from its main Al Qaida headquarters in Iraq, although the American forces were in reality occupying Iraq for close to nine years. These years, if the intention was there, could have been sufficient to neutralize its harmful effect. Actually the contrary is what has happened. These nine years have witnessed the formation and care of this organization until it became state controlling large parts of Iraqi and Syrian land at the same time.
The entry of Aboumossab Al Zarkawy during 2004 to Iraq under the organizational name of Al Tawheed wa Al Nour and Jihad was under orders from Osama Ben Laden, head of Al Qaida at that time. The name was changed after that to become Al Qaida organization for Mesopotamia. In the year 2006 Abou Amr Al Boghdady and Abou Hamza Al Mohager were chosen to lead the organization and announce the Islamic state in Iraq. This can only confirm two things, either that the U.S. has failed in confronting the jihadist groups, or that it has actually supported these groups in the light of a strategy aimed at possessing these organizations for political reasons. These reasons could have been re-dividing the Arab and Islamic world in favor of the neighbor Israel.
The entry and exit of the U.S. forces to and from Iraq after almost nine years of war, gave Iran the right to intervene in Iraq in support of a Shiite leadership—one that would rule according to sectarian values and that will require armed groups. These groups are still working in Iraq for the same purpose. The U.S. has also used this conflict to divert Iran's attention from guarding its borders against the threat of Al Qaida and ISIS.
The political chaos observed in Iraq is one of the fruits of a policy planned to make Iraq an aggregate of all those forces that terrified America with horrifying incidents such as the 9/11, 2001 bombing. And, in turn, the aim of that too was to move the battlefield from the U.S. to another location. That is why the pretext for the invasion of Iraq was the ousting of President Saddam Hussein's regime. He was a tyrant who ruled Iraq by force, thus rendering the political relationship with his people, his neighbors and throughout the international arena, problematic.
Following the invasion, all the Iraqi military institutions were dissolved. The country's borders went unprotected, which, in turn, attracted the forces of international terror organizations to relocate their bases of struggle with the U.S. from Afghanistan to Iraqi territory. This new location eventually turned into a place of volatile conflict, a cause of great disappointment to the Americans---similar to what they met in Afghanistan. The U.S. then changed from a country combating terror to one nurturing it.
America also helped to install the sectarian spirit between Sunni and Shia. They were able to gain some success on that front as this spirit was prevalent in the area at the time. They helped the Shiites into power after a long political isolation that had lasted decades. They also helped initiate Takfiri groups which consider others disbelievers. These groups then confronted the Shiites and war erupted between them. The ultimate aim was to emphasize the instability of Iraq after the exit of the American troops, in order for it not to pose a threat to the U.S. in the future.
The U.S., however, succeeded in taking active steps with a view to destroying the Arab and Islamic world, to say the least. It tried to achieve this through igniting sectarian conflicts, on one side, and attempting to separate the people of the same nation in each Arab country, on the other. Without any doubt, the political environment, of the Arab Spring countries is witness to this American policy that usually requires some time to execute.
The U.S. has succeeded in mutilating the image of Arabs, Muslims and Islam. This was achieved through the most enormous planned mutilation campaign ever executed by an Islamic state (ISIS). The project also aimed to divide the Arab Islamic world through the growth of these organizations that controlled the political system in Libya, a part of Yemen, in Syria and in Iraq. It was about to succeed, except for Egypt, where the Egyptian Military intervention put a stop to a plan that was all in favor of Israel.
The American tool for achieving this were the jihadist and non-jihadist groups and organizations which openly advocate war against the U.S., making the U.S attitude to them strange and surprising.These of course look as if they are conflicting projects, but they are adhered to for political and military goals.
The religious groups and organizations involved appear to have emerged from an Arab-Islamic environment. In reality though, they have all been created by the great American devil for political purposes. The main purpose is the destabilization of the Middle East region in the short term, and possibly the long term too. Destabilization would definitely favor Israel. The ignition of wars between Arab nations in the area would benefit neighboring Israel, along with division and dwarfing of the Arab armies. All this would serve only the Zionist entity that still strongly feels itself a stranger in the area.
Although the American army did exit Iraq three years ago, it left behind groups and organizations of jihadists including the "Islamic State". This presence does provoke destabilization of Iraq and the countries in the region; the U.S. can conceive of only one solution for the stability of its ally "Israel" and that is: dividing the region.
