I suspect ISIS was a Russian invention. Something to justify their moving in and taking over Syria, then the whole Middle East. I also suspect Obama was in on the scheme, despite his and Kerry's moans and groans.

From Aug 23, 2015:

"a recent investigation conducted by Novaya Gazeta, one of the few independent newspapers left in Russia, complicates this cozy tale of counterterrorist cooperation. Based on extensive fieldwork in one village in the North Caucasus, reporter Elena Milashina has concluded that the “Russian special services have controlled” the flow of jihadists into Syria, where they have lately joined up not only with ISIS but other radical Islamist factions.

In other words, Russian officials are adding to the ranks of terrorists which the Russian government has deemed a collective threat to the security and longevity of its dictatorial ally on the Mediterranean, Bashar al-Assad."

Kinda stupid analysis. Russia has been a welcome ally in Syria since 1971. They didn’t need an excuse like ISIS to put as many people into Syria as they pleased. Assad would have welcomed them with open arms.
We on the other hand, who actually created ISIS had a fantastic reason. We meant for them, with NATO Air Support, to remove Assad just as we did in Libya. But Putin killed the NATO air support politically, and nobody in the USA wanted it either.
Then ISIS helped by going full rabid.

But we created them, there are photos of McCain laughing with them.

ISIS was the invention of someone....maybe the Russians...maybe Saudi Arabia....maybe the US. The thing is, they were a rag-tag army with no real infrastructure, no air defense, and no great sympathy from the general public in the region.

I would say this. If Russia gets them out of Syria, he probably deserves the Noble Peace Prize. But then I’d be wondering...where exactly they go to....Iraq? And would the US administration go and rescue Iraq? There’s another step to this whole story which I think will become apparent and lead onto more serious consequences. Iran isn’t about to allow ISIS to fester and grow in Iraq....so they will jump into a military encounter.

If you follow prophecy, Russian and Iran could be positioning themselves for an attack on Israel. I’m sure that’s why Bibi met with Putin—to state the facts LOL. There is apparently also an energy prize to be won by grabbing Israel.
