US Intelligence Responds ''No Comment'' To Questions Of Support for ISIS
By Brandon Turbeville
On May 25, I wrote an article entitled “DOD Admits Supporting ISIS, Buffer Zones In Syria,”
where I detailed the importance of documents obtained by Judicial Watch
via a lawsuit filed by the watchdog organization against the Defense
Intelligence Agency revealing that the US government was not only well
aware of the fact that al-Qaeda/AQI/ISIS made up the bulk of the
so-called “opposition” in Syria but that the US supported these
terrorist organizations in their drive to create an “Islamic State” in
Syria and Iraq.
These documents were stunning in their open admission that the US
government was knowingly supporting al-Qaeda in Iraq and Syria and even
more so in the admission that the US gov’t was supporting the creation
of the Islamic State. But they were only stunning in the fact that they
were released without the relevant portions being redacted. They were
much less than surprising when one considers the fact that any informed
observer was able to deduce the US policy long before the documents were
ever released.
After all, every action the US took in terms of its policy
toward AQI/ISIS resulted in strengthening the organization. Even more
so, when one comes to understand the fact that the ISIS/AQI was entirely
created by the United States and NATO to begin with, the story of what
is happening in the Middle East becomes that much clearer. In other
words, it was the open admission of support for ISIS – in un-redacted
official form – was surprising. The actual support for ISIS,
unfortunately, was not.
