On the front lines of the battle against the Islamic State, suspicion of the United States runs deep. Iraqi fighters say they have all seen the videos purportedly showing U.S. helicopters airdropping weapons to the militants, and many claim they have friends and relatives who have witnessed similar instances of collusion.
Ordinary people also have seen the videos, heard the stories and reached the same conclusion — one that might seem absurd to Americans but is widely believed among Iraqis — that the United States is supporting the Islamic State for a variety of pernicious reasons that have to do with asserting American control over Iraq, the wider Middle East and, perhaps, its oil.
“It is not in doubt,†said Mustafa Saadi, who says his friend saw U.S. helicopters delivering bottled water to Islamic State positions. He is a commander in one of the Shiite militias that last month helped push the militants out of the oil refinery near Baiji in northern Iraq alongside the Iraqi army.

Duh!!!!
so do many of us here, but a handful on here who think fighting the 80’as cold war is still on while ignoring ISIS
Actually, Col. Warren, quite a few patriotic Americans believe it too.
Russia seems schizoid on the Islamic support issue too.
We Americans are not in cahoots with ISIS. Our president however.... that’s another matter.
If US marked aircraft are delivering supplies to ISIS directly, you can bet your sweet bippy the Russians have pictures and witnesses.
Congress is in on it with him.
I’ll say it. We have @#$@#$ed Iraq left and right.
Things were bad under saddam. Now they are horrific.
I know the next president crushes ISIS if Russia doesn’t first and will give some hope to the Iraqi people of some sort of normalcy.
One of the first pics I saw of the Iraq war was a little iraqi girl with no arms and no legs. i turned the page.
I shouldn’t have.
Saudi Arabia was at the least, the money behind 9/11. We should have rocked them to the ground. We should still.
Saddam was a two cent dictator. couldn’t beat iran in ten years and was our foil to Iran.
The Sauds and Qatar and Turkey and Iran are the enemy.
Saddam was a joke.
Iraq is not alone. Many here in this country feel the same way.
The guy
The gay err guy... never was an American, so you cannot call him a traitor.
Learned a long time ago...Watch what they do, NOT what they say,
Many have known and talked about the bama plan to import 250,000 muslims into the USA. I didn’t believe it when I first heard it, but the problems in the middle east just keep escalating, and NOBODY wants to relocate to another muslim nation. They all want to go to Europe and the USA..to those western nations whose lifestyles muslims despise...to the nations they call ‘the great satan’, and the big zero is throwing wide the doors and throwing out the protective welcome mat.
So how many is it he wants to import???? Heard any recent numbers since the Paris bombing?????
The whole world knows Obama is a Sunni Muslim, but, for some reason, the American people fail see it.
Given what`s occurring in Syria, it is.
My niece goes to school in London and they are all very aware of Barry is a Muslim .
They are stunned by the ignorance.
