This quote suggests otherwiseThere's a significant and important difference between US support for some Syrian opposition groups ending up with some parts of IS/AQ, and them being directly funded which is what you say (and the article doesn't). Unless you're a simplisitic campist and the later suits your narrative.
A year into the Syrian rebellion, the US and its allies weren’t only supporting and arming an opposition they knew to be dominated by extreme sectarian groups; they were prepared to countenance the creation of some sort of “Islamic state” – despite the “grave danger” to Iraq’s unity – as a Sunni buffer to weaken Syria.
What the fuck.

Yes, this has been more than obvious from the start of the war in Ukraine, and there's clearly an element of 'theatre' there, seeing as he was widely viewed as western-friendly when president. He appears to have stepped into the shoes of Zhirinovsky.Medvedev’s current job seems to be to say absolutely mad things all the time so that his boss looks like a restrained centrist to the domestic audience.
What the fuck.
Whether or not the Renault passengers had anything to do with this, or indeed whether or not there ever was a Renault, the announcement of an arrest is good news in that it doesn’t suggest the attack will be used as a pretext for escalation in Ukraine or mass mobilisation.
You can see Putin's point of view. All the hallmarks of a NATO operation.Bugger. Putin now linking the attacks to Ukraine. I retract the above.

Complete bollocks. Bush, Blair and the all those brave squaddies who invaded Iraq are the true founders of ISIS.
