I can compare the rise of ISIS to the increase of the Taliban. When the “Taliban” rode into Kabul, engaging and finally dislodging the Northern alliance from Kabul in lightning speed, the world withheld their breath – who are these people, and where did they come from? Where did they get their advanced armaments, and who is bankrolling them. Only later did we learn that they were armed by the USA, paid for by KSA and that they were the children recruited from refugee camps inside Pakistan and kept in boarding schools where they were taught an extreme interpretation of Islam. They were trained in the art of the kill, aka Universal Soldiers, by the best of the CIA. Fortunately or unfortunately, by the time they were old enough to fight – the Russians abandoned Afghanistan. The Northern Alliance, who were then lording it over in Kabul after the Russians, were pro-Iranian Mujahideen that USA/Pakistan/KSA did not like a bit, so they sent in the Taliban, and – the rest is history. Ironically, when the USA decided to remove the Taliban after 9/11 – the USA approached the Northern Alliance, which was then cornered by the Taliban along the borders with Iran. Dr. Abdullah Abdullah (present president of Afghanistan), who replaced Sha Masaud after he was assassinated by Al Qaeda, agreed to let his men do the ground battle. At the same time, the USA provided arms, logistics, and air cover on the understanding that the Northern Alliance would not demand political control after the Taliban was out.
MUSLIMS ARE PLAYED BY THE WEST LIKE PAWNS ON A CHESSBOARD…and with the allure of money and power, our leaders play by their roles. What is so maddeningly painful is the way Muslims are being pitted against each other, slaughtering one another not by hundreds but by thousands, and effectively shattering the lives of millions. Something is terribly wrong, and I see no light at the end of the tunnel…go self-destruct.
