US Intelligence Responds: ”No Comment” To Questions of the US Government “Knowingly” Supporting The Islamic State (ISIS) | Global Research – Centre for Research on Globalization

On May 25, I wrote an article entitled “DOD Admits Supporting ISIS, Buffer Zones In Syria,”
where I detailed the importance of documents obtained by Judicial Watch
via a lawsuit filed by the watchdog organization against the Defense
Intelligence Agency revealing that the US government was not only well
aware of the fact that al-Qaeda/AQI/ISIS made up the bulk of the
so-called “opposition” in Syria but that the US supported these
terrorist organizations in their drive to create an “Islamic State” in
Syria and Iraq.

These documents were stunning in their open admission that the
US government was knowingly supporting al-Qaeda in Iraq and Syria and
even more so in the admission that the US gov’t was supporting the
creation of the Islamic State. But they were only stunning in
the fact that they were released without the relevant portions being
redacted. They were much less than surprising when one considers the
fact that any informed observer was able to deduce the US policy long
before the documents were ever released.

After all, every action the US took in terms of its policy toward
AQI/ISIS resulted in strengthening the organization. Even more so, when
one comes to understand the fact that the ISIS/AQI was entirely created
by the United States and NATO to begin with, the story of what is
happening in the Middle East becomes that much clearer. In other words,
it was the open admission of support for ISIS – in un-redacted official
form – was surprising. The actual support for ISIS, unfortunately, was
not.

With growing reports in the alternative (but notable silence amongst
the mainstream) press, it was almost inevitable that the corporate media
or the intelligence apparatus would have to address what they surely
deem publicly to be a “conspiracy theory.”

That response finally came on May 26, when Brad
Hoff of the Levant Report, one of the reporters who helped break the
story of the DIA documents in the alternative and independent media, was
contacted by the DIA in order to provide a statement regarding the
documents. This was long after Hoff had published his article on the DIA
release.

Interestingly enough, the statement from the DIA can be summed up in
one word – “Nothing.” This is because the answer to every single
question asked by Hoff was essentially met with “no comment.”

In other words, when asked whether or not the United States has
actively supported al-Qaeda, ISIS, and/or other terrorist organizations,
the DIA answered that it could not confirm that the United States has
NOT funded al-Qaeda and ISIS. Obviously, this is because the United
States has indeed funded these organizations. It created them……read it all here…..US Intelligence Responds: ”No Comment” To Questions of the US Government “Knowingly” Supporting The Islamic State (ISIS)
