An "Islamic fundamentalist terrorist" organisation which whistleblower Sibel Edmonds links to Operation Gladio/B and succinctly describes as a re-branding of al-Qaeda.

The Islamic State (IS), also known as Daesh, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), is described as an Islamic fundamentalist terrorist organisation which reportedly was created by US, British and Israeli intelligence to promote the "War on Terror" narrative.

Funded by USA, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Turkey and Qatar, the I-CIA-SIS uses a lot of US weapons. It is alleged to have posted gruesome videos online and is said to have claimed responsibility for a series of attacks, most notably the downing of the Russian Airbus Metrojet Flight 9268 on 31 October 2015, the mass murder in Paris on 13 November 2015 and the mass murder in Brussels on 22 March 2016.

A week after the Brussels attacks, former UK prime minister Tony Blair called for Britain to step up military action to “crush” ISIS or be faced with a terrorist “act of such size and horror” that it will result in “many more victims” than the atrocities in Brussels and Paris. Accused by some of scaremongering, and echoing the views of US presidential hopeful Donald Trump, Blair wrote in The Sunday Times:

“ISIS has to be eliminated with greater speed and vigour. Where they need active on-the-ground military support from us, we should give it. They have to be crushed.”

Official Narrative

Wikipedia claims that "from its beginnings the establishment of a pure Islamic state has been one of the group's main goals," and has a fairly extensive treatment of the group. It claims that "the group was founded in 2003 as a reaction to the American-led invasion and occupation of Iraq." Not much is told about ISIL by the corporate media, other than that they are an "Islamic terror" group responsible for destabilization in Iraq and that they are a bigger terror threat than their close affiliate Al Qaeda.

Audio leaked in January 2017 suggested that the US was hoping ISIS would expand to the point at which it would lead to regime change in Syria.

Origins

In 2015, former Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency Michael T. Flynn stated that the rise of ISIS was a "willful decision" of the US government. In its original form, ISIS was composed of and supported by a variety of Sunni Arab terrorist insurgent groups, including its predecessor organisations, Al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI) (2003–2006), MujahideenShura Council (2006–2006) and the Islamic State of Iraq (ISI) (2006–2013), other insurgent groups such as Jeish al-Taiifa al-Mansoura, Jaysh al-Fatiheen, Jund al-Sahaba and Katbiyan Ansar Al-Tawhid wal Sunnah, and a number of Iraqi tribes that profess Sunni Islam.

Alain Chouet, a senior French spook stated that "Western governments and the financial sponsors of jihad... [W]e remain allies with those who have sponsored this terrorism for the last 30 years."

The Islamic State grew significantly as an organisation owing to its participation in the Syrian Civil War and the strength of its leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, an alleged to be a Mossad agent. Economic and political discrimination against Arab Iraqi Sunnis since the fall of the secular Saddam Hussein also helped it to gain support. At the height of the 2003–2011 Iraq War, its forerunners enjoyed a significant presence in the Iraqi governorates of Al Anbar, Nineveh, Kirkuk, most of Salah ad Din, parts of Babil, Diyala and Baghdad, and claimed Baqubah as a capital city. In the ongoing Syrian Civil War, ISIS has a large presence in the Syrian governs of Al-Raqqah, Idlib and Aleppo.

ISIS is known for its extreme interpretation of the Islamic faith and Sharia sharia law and its brutal violence, which is directed at Shia Muslims, indigenous Assyrian/Chaldean/Syriac Christians and Armenian Christians, Yazidis, Druze, Shabakis and Mandeans in particular. It has a cultish militia perhaps 35,000 strong which claimed responsibility for attacks that have killed thousands of civilians. ISIS had close links with al-Qaeda until the groups split in February 2014.

ISIS’s purported original aim was to establish a caliphate in the Sunni-majority regions of Iraq but expanded to include controlling Sunni-majority areas of Syria. A caliphate was proclaimed on 29 June 2014, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi — now known as Amir al-Mu'minin Caliph Ibrahim — was named as its Caliph, and the group was renamed the Islamic State.

Support by Western Intelligence

In July 2014, it was reported that the Islamic State was created by the CIA/MI6/Mossad as part of NATO's Gladio B and that Israel was using it as a front organisation. NSA documents presented by Edward Snowden have revealed that the British and American intelligence and the Mossad worked together to create the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). Snowden said intelligence services of three countries created a terrorist organisation that is able to attract all extremists of the world to one place, using a strategy called "the hornet’s nest" to protect the Zionist entity by creating religious and Islamic slogans. According to documents released by Snowden "The only solution for the protection of the Jewish state 'is to create an enemy near its borders'." Several sites have posted the interview and transcript of an interview Al-Maydeen TV conducted with Sheikh Nabeel Naiem Abul Fattah, an Egyptian who says that he helped set up al Qaeda in the late 1980s. Naiem said that ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is "basically a U.S. agent," claiming that he established ISIS training camps in Jordan that "were supervised by the Marines." Glenn Greenwald tweeted in response that the claims Snowden claimed the confirm it were not te found in the NSA documents, hinting at possible interference by intelligence agencies.

A Jordanian official reported ISIS leaders being trained by US Intelligence at a base in Jordan. “Key members of ISIS it now emerges were trained by US CIA and Special Forces command at a secret camp in Jordan in 2012, according to informed Jordanian officials,” writes William Engdahl. A scripted "geopolitical struggle between the US and Russia" is “the objective of leading neo-conservatives in the CIA, Pentagon and State Department all along,” Engdahl continues. “The CIA transported hundreds of MujahideenSaudis and other foreign veterans of the 1980s Afghan war against the Soviets in Afghanistan into Chechnya to disrupt the struggling Russia in the early 1990s, particularly to sabotage the Russian oil pipeline running directly from Baku on the Caspian Sea into Russia. James Baker III and his friends in Anglo-American Big Oil had other plans. It was called the BTC pipeline, owned by a BP-US oil consortium and running through Tbilisi into NATO-member Turkey, free of Russian territory.”

Sweden's Foreign Minister Margot Wallström, speaking to a Swedish TV channel shortly after the 13 November 2015 massacre in Paris, said “Of course we have cause for concern, not just in Sweden but throughout the world, because there are so many being radicalised. And again, it reminds us of the situation in the Middle East, where the Palestinians see that there is no future for them and have to either accept a desperate situation or resort to violence.”

In 2016, an apparent terrorist hideout was discovered, complete with audio and video recording equipment, generator, Arabic language newspapers and ISIS flags. The French authorities later claimed that this was part of a terrorist 'exercise', although local police - who should have been notified if it were - denied knowing anything about it.

Funding

The Daily Beast’s Josh Rogin wrote that "The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), now threatening Baghdad, was funded for years by wealthy donors in Kuwait, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia, three US allies that have dual agendas in the war on terror." Andrew Tabler, senior fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy wrote that "Everybody knows the money is going through Kuwait and that it’s coming from the (Persian) Gulf... Kuwait’s banking system and its money changers have long been a huge problem because they are a major conduit for money to extremist groups in Syria and now Iraq."

Former Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki pointed the finger directly at Saudi Arabia and Qatar during a France 24 television interview: "I accuse them of inciting and encouraging the terrorist movements. I accuse them of supporting them politically and in the media, of supporting them with money and by buying weapons for them."

Oil Trade

Israel is reported to be the main buyer for oil from Islamic State controlled territory that produces an estimated 20,000-40,000 barrels of oil each day and generates $1-1.5 million daily profit for IS. The oil is extracted from the Deir ez-Zor region of Syria and two fields in Iraq and transported to Zakhu in Iraqi Kurdistan, which provides Israel with 75% of its oil supplies. More than a third of such exports go through the Turkish port of Ceyhan, described by the Financial Times as a “potential gateway for ISIS-smuggled crude."

Contract bombings in Iran

In July 2016, a documentary aired on Iranian state TV reported that ISIS militants were paid 600,000 euros to carry out a bombing campaign at 50 locations in Tehran and other big cities in Iran.

Military Hardware

US military hardware including Humvees has been captured by ISIS. In January 2016, Mother Jones headlined an article "The Pentagon Has No Clue How Many Weapons It Has Lost to ISIS", writing that "Everything from M-16s and bullets to Humvees and tanks have been lost. But neither the US nor Iraqi governments can say how much US-supplied materiel has been diverted to militant groups or how it's ending up there."

Leaders

I-CIA-SIS leaders only live twice (or thrice)

Several key ISIS leaders appear to have received high level training and support from Western intelligence agencies. Some evidence suggests that the US even trained some of the fighters who went on to join ISIS at a secret base in Jordan in 2012. Aaron Klein was told by Jordanian officials that, "dozens of future ISIS members were trained at the time as part of covert aid to the insurgents."

Turkey reportedly trained ISIS fighters at a location in the vicinity of Incirlik Air Base near Adana. According to a source close to former Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, the Obama administration turned a blind eye to the fact that Turkey was equipping and then sending fighters to Syria before they went on to Iraq. The source even went on to accuse the White House of being "an accomplice" in the ISIS takeover of major Iraqi cities.

Iran's PressTV reported that "the White House itself, as well as some of America’s closest supposed allies, all share some of the blame in aiding the growth of ISIS in the region.

Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi

Edward Snowden has revealed that ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi received intensive military training for a year from the Mossad, besides taking courses in theology and the art of public speaking. A Russian expert in oriental studies, Vyacheslav Matuzov, told Voice of Russia radio in July 2014 that "All facts show that al-Baghdadi is in contact with the CIA and during all the years that he was in prison (2004-2009) he has been collaborating with the CIA."

Mohammed al-Rashed

Mohammed al-Rashed was arrested on 28 February 2015 in Turkey on charges of helping young people from the UK to join ISIS and enter Syria. He made a statement admitting helping South Africans, Indonesians, Australians and Nigerians, and claimed that since seeking asylum in Canada in 2013 he had been working for the Canadian government in exchange for citizenship.

Nabil Na’eem

Nabil Na’eem, the founder of the Islamic Democratic Jihad Party and former top al-Qaeda commander, told the Beirut-based pan-Arab TV station al-Maydeen all current al-Qaeda affiliates, including ISIS, work for the CIA:

“What I want to tell you, the efforts of all Islamic countries, Sunni and Shiites, must combine to eradicate these groups because these groups are the claws of colonialism in the region,” Na’eem said.

Omar al-Shishani

Omar al-Shishani, reported killed in 2016, was reportedly a "star pupil" of US special-forces training.

Inspiration for atrocities

Videos posted by ISIS have been used as justification for military action in various countries.

Bombing Libya

On Monday 16 February 2015, Egypt launched air strikes against Islamic State targets in Libya after IS posted a gruesome video online purporting to show the beheading of 21 Egyptian Coptic Christian hostages. Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi vowed to avenge the beheading on Sunday night, saying the country reserved the right to respond in a way it sees fit. Pope Francis described the 21 murdered hostages as "martyrs", saying they were "killed simply because they were Christians".

Bombing Iraq

The UK Prime Minister David Cameron warned on 17 August 2014 in The Sunday Telegraph that "If we do not act to stem the onslaught of this exceptionally dangerous terrorist movement, it will only grow stronger until it can target us on the streets of Britain. We already know that it has the murderous intent" and underlined that the "generational struggle against a poisonous and extremist ideology" may take "the rest of my political lifetime." On 26 September 2014, the UK Parliament backed British participation in air strikes against Islamic State extremists in Iraq, voting by 524 votes to 43 to bomb Iraq.

Drone strikes in Syria

MQ-9 Reaper drones based in the Middle East are controlled from RAF Waddington

On 7 September 2015, speaking to the Commons on its first day back after the summer break, David Cameron justified as an act of self-defence the targeting of UK citizens fighting alongside ISIS in Syria by an unmanned General Atomics Reaper drone costing £10 million. Reyaad Khan, a 21-year-old from Cardiff, who had featured in a prominent ISIS recruiting video in 2014, and Ruhul Amin, 26, were killed in the attack on the Syrian city of Raqqa on 21 August 2015. A third Briton, Junaid Hussain, 21, was killed by a separate US airstrike three days later as part of a joint operation.

The strikes were authorised by David Cameron at a meeting of senior members of the National Security Council some months ago after intelligence agencies presented evidence to ministers that Khan and Hussain were planning to attack commemorative events in the UK. It is understood that the two events were the VE Day commemorations, presided over by the Queen at Westminster Abbey on 10 May 2015, and a ceremony to mark the murder of Lee Rigby in Woolwich on Armed Forces Day on 27 June 2015. Following preparations, which took place over a period of months, the prime minister convened a meeting of the National Security Council attended by the attorney general Jeremy Wright who advised that a strike would be legal on the grounds of self defence.

Questioning by Jeremy Corbyn

Questioning the legal basis for the use of drones, Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said:

“Urgent consideration now needs to be given to the appropriate process by which attacks such as this one are sanctioned, on what evidence and on what basis of law.” On 11 September 2015, it was revealed that a letter sent to the UN Security Council (UNSC) by the British government had claimed drone strikes in Syria were “a necessary and proportionate exercise of the individual right of self-defence of the United Kingdom,” but added that “action against ISIL in Syria is lawful in the collective self-defence of Iraq.”

Jeremy Corbyn said Cameron’s failure to mention the additional justification of defending Iraq raised the question of whether parliament had been misled:

“The government appears to have used an additional and entirely separate justification for this covert strike in their letter to the UN, which was not mentioned in the prime minister’s statement to parliament. Why did the government cite the defence of Iraq when justifying this strike to the UN, but not when doing so to parliament?”

“Is it because parliament previously voted against action in Syria, making this justification at odds with the will of the Commons? The prime minister cannot face two ways on this issue – he needs to urgently explain this discrepancy.”

UN response

The UN Security Council has not followed up on the mounting evidence that ISIS is a product of Western Intelligence agencies, and has instead issued predictable resolutions condemning its acts of "terrorism", which have been used as justification for "humanitarian intervention".

UNSCR 2170

On 15 October 2014, the UN Security Council blacklisted six people, including Abu Muhammad al-Adnani the ISIS spokesman, and threatened sanctions against those who finance, recruit or supply weapons to the insurgents. The 15-member council unanimously adopted UNSCR 2170 (2014) in an announced effort to weaken the ISIS and al-Qaeda's Syrian wing, the al-Nusra Front stating that it "deplores and condemns in the strongest terms the terrorist acts of ISIS and its violent extremist ideology, and its continued gross, systematic and widespread abuses of human rights and violations of international humanitarian law."

Syria's UN Ambassador, Bashar Ja'afari, calling the adoption of UNSCR 2170 "important", stressed that ISIS and other groups had no connection with Islam or the heritage of the region. He said that Syria had been beset with the crimes of such groups for the past three year, and had been fighting them, while influential States in the region and elsewhere had continued their support for the groups while portraying them as moderate opposition.

UNSCR 2249

On 20 November 2015, a week after the Paris attacks, the UN Security Council unanimously adopted UNSCR 2249 (2015), paragraph 5 of which "Calls upon Member States that have the capacity to do so to take all necessary measures, in compliance with international law, in particular with the United Nations Charter, as well as international human rights, refugee and humanitarian law, on the territory under the control of ISIL also known as Daesh, in Syria and Iraq, to redouble and coordinate their efforts to prevent and suppress terrorist acts committed specifically by ISIL also known as Daesh as well as ANF, and all other individuals, groups, undertakings, and entities associated with Al Qaeda, and other terrorist groups, as designated by the United Nations Security Council, and as may further be agreed by the International Syria Support Group (ISSG) and endorsed by the UN Security Council, pursuant to the Statement of the International Syria Support Group (ISSG) of 14 November, and to eradicate the safe haven they have established over significant parts of Iraq and Syria."

David Cameron hailed UNSCR 2249 as providing the "clear legal basis" for Britain to launch airstrikes against ISIL in Syria, a view shared by a number of retired British diplomats. However, the BBC reported that UNSCR 2249 does not invoke the UN's Chapter VII, which gives specific legal authorisation for the use of force. And an editorial in The Guardian of 27 November 2015 stated:

"Many MPs are talking as if the UN Security Council has authorised bombing in law, when – although there may be a legal case for action based on self-defence – it has in fact done no such thing."

In a 17-minute interview on the BBC's Andrew Marr Show, Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn maintained that a mandatory UNSC resolution was required to legitimise any British bombing of ISIS in Syria, and that innocent civilians would be killed in such airstrikes. Corbyn nonetheless bowed to pressure from Shadow Cabinet colleagues and gave Labour MPs a free vote on whether to extend airstrikes against Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) from Iraq into Syria in the parliamentary debate taking place on Wednesday 2 December 2015.

The Ayes (Friends of Israel) Have It

RAF Tornados bomb Syria's Omar oil field

In October 2015, a huge oil deposit was found in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights in Syria, with enough reserves to last Israel for decades. The announcement follows Israel's controversial granting in 2010 of oil exploration rights in Syria to Genie Energy, whose major shareholders include Rupert Murdoch and Lord Jacob Rothschild.

On 1 December 2015, it was reported that US, British, French and Israeli energy interests in a Syrian oil bonanza could be the prime beneficiaries of the ongoing military operations in Iraq and Syria which are ostensibly to defeat Islamic State but designed to overthrow the Bashar al-Assad regime.

On 2 December 2015, following a 10-hour debate, the House of Commons voted by 397 to 223 in favour of bombing Daesh in Syria. Instead of targeting terrorists, however, David Cameron ordered RAF Tornados from Akrotiri in Cyprus to bomb the Omar oil field in eastern Syria. The second wave of airstrikes on 5 December 2015 also targeted the Omar oil field. Three Brimstone missiles (costing £100,000 each) were deployed for the first time in another RAF airstrike on the Omar oil field on 10 January 2016. That attack came hours after the RAF bombed two buildings near Daesh stronghold Raqqa and a tunnel complex. A Reaper drone (£10 million each) targeted an ISIS position, also near Raqqa.

SANA, the Syrian news agency, declared:

"Britain didn't ask permission from Syria's government. Cameron told lies."

The Turks were great friends, and I have a great relationship with Erdogan, [who] I just spent a lot of time with, [and] the Saudis, the Emirates, etcetera. What were they doing? They were so determined to take down Assad, and essentially have a proxy Sunni-Shia war, what did they do? They poured hundreds of millions of dollars and tens of tons of weapons into anyone who would fight against Assad – except that the people who were being supplied, [they] were al-Nusra, and al-Qaeda, and the extremist elements of jihadis who were coming from other parts of the world. Now, you think I'm exaggerating? Take a look. Where did all of this go? So now that's happening, all of a sudden, everybody is awakened because this outfit called ISIL, which was al-Qaeda in Iraq, when they were essentially thrown out of Iraq, found open space and territory in [eastern] Syria, [and they] work with al-Nusra, who we declared a terrorist group early on. And we could not convince our colleagues to stop supplying them. So what happened? Now, all of a sudden – I don't want to be too facetious – but they have seen the lord. Now we have ... been able to put together a coalition of our Sunni neighbors, because America can't once again go into a Muslim nation and be the aggressor. It has to be led by Sunnis.

Even the prominent military think tank RAND Corporation has argued that “bitcoin and the dark web” are the newest terrorist threat.”	Whitney Webb	September 2023
