re: How CIA and MI6 Created ISIS

Yeah, this was nothing new. I think there was a general who had said that we created ISIS.

This is an old British SOP. They did it in Palestine before WWII with the Palestinians....attempted it even with the Zionists at the time. Create or support a wedge group to keep the locals more interested in fighting each other as to spend less time focusing on British stuff. Worked great as well for the British Raj in India
