Ex-US Intelligence Officials Confirm: Secret Pentagon Report Proves US Complicity In Creation
Zero Hedge ^ | 6/8/15 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 06/08/2015 5:52:59 PM PDT by Nachum

Two weeks ago, courtesy of the investigative work of Nafeez Ahmed whose deep dig through a recently declassified and formertly Pentagon documents released earlier by Judicial Watch FOIA, we learned that Western governments deliberately allied with al-Qaeda and other Islamist extremist groups to topple Syrian dictator Bashir al-Assad. In his words: "According to the newly declassified US document, the Pentagon foresaw the likely rise of the ‘Islamic State’ as a direct consequence of the strategy, but described this outcome as a strategic opportunity to “isolate the Syrian regime.”

Now, in a follow up piece to his stunning original investigative report titled "Secret Pentagon report reveals West saw ISIS as strategic asset Anti-ISIS coalition knowingly sponsored violent extremists to ‘isolate’ Assad, rollback ‘Shia expansion", Nafeez Ahmed reveals that according to leading American and British intelligence experts, the previously declassified Pentagon report confirms that the West accelerated support to extremist rebels in Syria, despite knowing full well the strategy would pave the way for the emergence of the ‘Islamic State’ (ISIS).

The experts who have spoken out include renowned government whistleblowers such as the Pentagon’s Daniel Ellsberg, the NSA’s Thomas Drake, and the FBI’s Coleen Rowley, among others.

Their remarks demonstrate the fraudulent nature of claims by two other former officials, the CIA’s Michael Morell and the NSA’s John Schindler, both of whom attempt to absolve the Obama administration of responsibility for the policy failures exposed by the DIA documents.

This is Nafeez Ahmed's follow up story, originally posted in Medium

"US complicity in creation"

God the father, the Son, and the Spirit may contend with this assertion.

Maybe the biggest story since the Bay of Pigs or the JFK Assassination. Obama and his merry band of idiots deliberately tried to take down Egypt, Libya and Syria and replace them with Muslim Brotherhood leaders.

They succeeded in Egypt, then the Egyptian public threw them out.

Libya is a disaster.

In Syria, they decided to use “local rebels” to do the fighting. They helped create ISIS.

THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES HELPED TO CREATE THE MOST VIOLENT, ANTI-WESTERN TERRORISTS IN THE WORLD. And Hillary Clinton was right there with him, soliciting bribes from foreign governments to the Clinton Foundation in exchange for US Support.

This is the Uniparty bipartisan foreign policy elite in action all the way, an elite whose bloodline runs back through the “Cold War” when we ‘contained’ Communism by talking to it and appeasing it, along with fighting limited wars.......

This was good Intelligence and is the type of document that is an assessment. It takes into consideration every turn that can be reasonably determined as an outcome of the situation (At an given time).

I would be more concerned if the Pentagon was thinking intelligently and did not see the possibility of ISIS gaining control, or that the politics of the administration so skewed the reporting that it missed these tibets of intellectual discussion.If this was a planning document that was policy using ISIS and there was an officer in charge that would be an entirely different matter.
