About the most truthful thing you've said in this thread, but you are correct.

quote:

The new al Qaeda was rebranded in 2006 as the Islamic State in Iraq (ISI). It would add "and Syria" to its name later. The group exploited a growing perception among many Sunnis that they were being persecuted by the Shia-dominated government led by Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, starved of resources and excluded from a share of power.


Interesting read from everyone's 3rd favorite left leaning media outlet CNN
