It's hard for me to ignore that every time ISIS so much as farts, the US stuffs untold sums of dollars into the G strings of the nation-whoring defense sector.

Any way you look at it they are right.

Either ISIS was created as an Insurgency to fight against western incursions into Iraq, Afghanistan and the middle east in general.

Alternatively, ISIS was created by US operatives specifically to destabilize countries in the middle east.

If anything the seeds that sprouted into ISIS were sown by the US one way or another.

I think it would be wrong to say the US created ISIS, but they had a hand in it's inception for sure.

If Bruce Wayne witnessed the murder of his parents and developed a thirst for vengeance (that he otherwise would not have developed), it's safe to say the murderer of his parents created Batman.
