I found this sentiment (someone else's) posted online in 2015:
"The real and only purpose for ISIS is to create public support and justification for a full scale Syrian invasion to overthrow the Assad government. Remember last year when the "Weapons of Mass Destruction" cries didnt work to win public support for another war?
ISIS is the backup plan.
Its all scripted and all planned. Just another move on the world domination chess game. Whats sad is the majority of Americans are eating it up like their own government hasnt lied repeatedly for justification of WAR.
Nothing we can do really. The game is rigged and we are the pawns. Do people really think the "Syrian Opposition" is going to be any more humane than the Assad Regime? These are the same people that are in ISIS. The same "Freedom Fighters" we saw eat human hearts and decapitating people. Taking out Assad is just going to set the stage for pure anarchy. Just like in Iraq. We took out Saddam and Iraq went straight to hell."
