The real story is ISIS and its predecessor, al-Qaeda, as well as a host of other Wahhabi-Salafi jihadist mercenary "armies" that were recruited, organized, armed, trained and unleashed -- first on Afghanistan, then on to Yugoslavia, Chechnya, Iraq, Xinjiang,Libya, Syria, Tunisia, Egypt, Somalia, the Philippines, and other Muslim nations -- by and/or at the behest of U.S. intelligence services; a strategy which was the brainchild of geopolitical strategists like former National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski and his ilk. It's a myopic hallucination to see this reckless American hegemonic strategy as representing Islam when these mercenaries are no more representative of Islam than a band of Blackwater butchers is of Christianity.
First MI6 and then the CIA have been in bed with the Muslim Brotherhood since before we were born and this secretive group (which can hardly be seen as representative of mainstream Islam) has been used by the Anglo-American Empire to do its destabilization dirty work in the Middle East and elsewhere. The real source of evil comes not from the mercenaries or their religious beliefs (like the dumb Christian kid from Nebraska duped into murdering Iraqis for the U.S. Army), but from the powers who work overtime in Washington DC to engineer destabilization, deprivation, terrorism, chaos, civil strife and sectarian violence.
You are absolutely correct: WE're not getting this in the mainstream media. It's suppressed beneath a bunch of Islamophobic, War on Terror fairy tales. How was Trump ever supposed to "defeat" ISIS without getting the boys over at Langley (and their Pentagon and private special ops assets) to suspend logistical support, materiel and intelligence directly to those very ISIS mercenaries THEY trained and pay (either directly or through proxies)?
