Israeli (????)Think Tank: Don’t Destroy ISIS; It’s a “Useful Tool” Against Iran, Hezbollah, Syria
This says it all!
According to a think tank that does contract work for NATO and the Israeli government, the West should not destroy ISIS, the Islamist extremist group that is committing genocide and ethnically cleansing minority groups in Syria and Iraq.
Why? The so-called Islamic State "can be a useful tool in undermining" Iran, Hezbollah, Syria and Russia, argues the think tank’s director.
"The continuing existence of IS serves a strategic purpose, " wrote Efraim Inbar in "The Destruction of Islamic State Is a Strategic Mistake, " a paper published on Aug. 2.
By cooperating with Russia to fight the genocidal extremist group, the United States is committing a "strategic folly" that will "enhance the power of the Moscow-Tehran-Damascus axis, " Inbar argued, implying that Russia, Iran and Syria are forming a strategic alliance to dominate the Middle East. http://www.salon.com/2016/08/23/israeli-think-tank-dont-destroy-isis-its-a-useful-tool-against-iran-hezbollah-syria/
The U.S. just put boots on the ground in Syria, and when the U.S. did that, they DID NOT ATTACK ISIS, they attacked groups that were backing Assad. So maybe there is no think tank that said this, and it was just idiot joe claiming to be a think tank after watching CNN.
And that's not even getting to the point that if they really were a "think tank" they'd know ISIS is an American creation.
No ISIS in Northern Syria
When Nato troops entered Northern Syria, they expected a huge conflict. But instead they found NOTHINGthis article gives a good reason why - because in reality, ISIS has been staging from Turkish soil, with the full knowledge and support of the Turkish government.
