In Al Jazeera’s latest Head to Head episode, former director of the Defense Intelligence Agency Michael Flynn confirms to Mehdi Hasan that not only had he studied the DIA memo predicting the West’s backing of an Islamic State in Syria when it came across his desk in 2012, but even asserts that the White House’s sponsoring of radical jihadists (that would emerge as ISIL and Nusra) against the Syrian regime was “a willful decision.”
Amazingly, Flynn actually took issue with the way interviewer Mehdi Hasan posed the question—Flynn seemed to want to make it clear that the policies that led to the rise of ISIL were not merely the result of ignorance or looking the other way, but the result of conscious decision making:
Hasan: You are basically saying that even in government at the time you knew these groups were around, you saw this analysis, and you were arguing against it, but who wasn’t listening? Flynn: I think the administration. Hasan: So the administration turned a blind eye to your analysis? Flynn: I don’t know that they turned a blind eye, I think it was a decision. I think it was a willful decision. Hasan: A willful decision to support an insurgency that had Salafists, Al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood? Flynn: It was a willful decision to do what they’re doing.
Hasan himself expresses surprise at Flynn’s frankness during this portion of the interview. While holding up a paper copy of the 2012 DIA report declassified through FOIA, Hasan reads aloud key passages such as, “there is the possibility of establishing a declared or undeclared Salafist principality in Eastern Syria, and this is exactly what the supporting powers to the opposition want, in order to isolate the Syrian regime.”...

I’ve been expecting confirmation of this. It was only a matter of time.
Barack Obama
John McStain
What a team...
ISIS was created through the efforts of Valerie Jarrett, Obama, McCain,Brennan, Code Pink, Susan Rice, Samantha Power, etc.
Imagine Soetoro’s surprise when they refused to accept him as leader of the caliphate!
The US has become a terrorist sponsoring state and, with the Iran agreement, the world’s largest financier of terrorism. too.
Obama and Jarrett created the “flotilla” against Israel—using Brennan and Code Pink as go-betweens to communicate with the visible “flotilla” people.
And all this time I thought providing material support to a terrorist organization was against the law.
Well, that was pretty plain to us at FR a long time ago. Its interesting to see it confirmed by someone in the know.
But when ISIS burst onto the scene fully armed with US equipment, then nipped across the border to take possession of the enormous stockpiles of equipment our president had helpfully left for them, it was pretty obvious.
When you see them using Turkey as their safe rear zone, and sending their wounded there to be treated, its pretty obvious its a Turkey/Qatar/Obama operation. Which is why he has done so little to stop them. And when the Turks announce their intent to attack them, they attack the Kurds instead.
I'm sure it seemed like a great idea on paper: recruit our Al Qaeda enemies and turn them loose on our other enemies, like Khadafi, like Assad. You can imagine Obama would have been glad to take credit for it had they not gone hog-wild chopping off Christian heads and massacring innocents all over the middle east. The Turks don't care, but its embarrassing on the six o'clock news. So he has had to pretend to have nothing to do with them, while being careful to do nothing to actually harm them.
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

...Hillary Clinton, Huma Abedin, etc.
Yes. We've "known" this all along. So the only surprise is that this report is seeing the light of day.
The big question is, "Who owns and operates the above-named people?".
Hmmm...
“And all this time I thought providing material support to a terrorist organization was against the law.”
That was before the fundamental transformation of the United States of America.
Now, providing material support to terrorist organizations is US government policy.
I was hoping that during the debate questions on ISIS, one of the candidates would have the guts to point the finger at the single most important figure in the rise of ISIS: Hillary Clinton. She shipped to them hundreds of millions in US arms that were previously used by her Al-Qaeda friends in Libya. Those AQ buddies weren’t happy at all about it, so they killed her middleman, a guy who was known as Ambassador Stevens.
That’s awesome.....sick and sad and twisted...but still awesome
Obama used Code Pink's Medea Benjamin as a courier, strapping around State Department to talk to the Muslim Brotherhood directly. William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn were in Egypt with Benjamin at the same time on the same mission.
When I read about that, I knew Obama was skank and not on the level with us.
Paging Ken Starr, Mr Ken Starr, please.
Federal trials for everybody, and we'll get to the bottom of it. Let Starr hire Bill McCollum, all the ex-CIA and ex-DIA people, all the FBI ex-counterintelligence people, and 10,000 CPA's to follow the money, and let's tuck in.
Hold all the suspects in Fort Jefferson in the Dry Tortugas, like we did the infamous Dr. Mudd. Just let 'em sit on ice until we get around to their "speedy trial".
And wait for the rats to squeak.
One question in my mind is, do they get regular federal trials, or do some of them get the full Article III treason-trial treatment? (Barky, Valerie, Hildebeast)
“Who owns and operates the above-named people?”.
Soros is visible.
