ISISIs USA among supporters of terrorist groups in Middle east?  The question seems to be rather radical and annoying as well as disturbing… and surely the more so for the USA itself, who plays the role of GENDARME for freedom, liberty and democracy in the world. However when you take a look at several excerpts from an interview with ANN WRIGHT a former US Colonel and former diplomat made by Sophie Shevardnadze, a journalist working for RT, you feel truly disappointed and even hopeless for the future of this planet.

Regarding the header this is what former US Colonel says;

Anne Wright: The people that have been kidnapped – I mean, the international folks have been in the hands of ISIS for quite a few months now. The beheadings of course are horrific, and as vice-president Biden has said…something about the “gates of hell” being opened; I think the administration certainly feels the pressure that something needs to be done about it, about this group of horrific people. Now, whether it is further american military on the ground – I suspect not, because the feeling in the U.S. is that we do not want our military involved in ground operations any further in Iraq or in Syria. However, I do believe that the types of pressure that can be put on groups that do support ISIS, that have allowed ISIS to purchase military equipment, that are working with ISIS to buy on the black market oil from the oil fields that ISIS has captured – I think that’s really where ultimately the pressure points are…

SS: Which groups are you talking about? Could you be more precise?

AW: If you look at who is behind the oil, who is behind the oil from those oil fields, where it is going, through what borders is it going – some of it is going up into Turkey, so you’ve got to put pressure on the Turkish government to stop the flow of oil; you’ve got to put pressure on the Turkish government to stop allowing these large groups of international fighters that have crossed the border from Turkey for the last several years. I would say, you have to put pressure on the Saudis: the Saudis have been pouring a large amounts of money, as have the governments of Kuwait and of Qatar, into various groups of the foreign fighters.

SS: But so had the Americans, I don’t think these are the only people that are funding the foreign fighters in Syria. Americans are the ones who are funding them just as much as are the Qataris or the Saudis…

AW: Yes, I totally agree with you on that; I do not believe that they are funding ISIS, the U.S. is funding other, what they think are more moderate groups that are fighting the Assad government, but the ones I was actually talking about were those that either by turning a blind eye, or by actually funneling money and weapons into ISIS are giving it the power to gain territory and hold it.

SS: So there’s my question – the U.S. has propped up many allies that it later had to confront. The likes of Al-Qaeda, or Taliban – do you feel like it contributed to the rise of ISIS in Syria as well – involuntarily, of course – by funding the rebels?

AW: Certainly, the instability that has been caused by the U.S., starting 10, 11 years ago, from 2003, with the U.S. invasion and occupation of Iraq and earlier than that, the U.S. going in to Afghanistan after 9/11 – all of those events have triggered a large number of people from Arab and Muslim worlds, who have to the U.S.: “we don’t like what you’re doing in those areas”, and they have been coming in to Iraq and in Afghanistan and have been trained, and equipped and then have been available to go to other parts of the world, including Libya, to act as mercenaries for whomever wants to hire them.

Now having read these statements made by a former member of the US army and a former US diplommat one should ve extremely naive to believe the US has had a finger in all what has been happening in the region all along.  Moreover it is very noteable to see that Anne Wright draws attention to some other countries which she believes to have been providing support to ISIS either directly or indirectly.

These points are so cruical they could even be used as evidence at the International Court Of Justice, to try those who have committed (and have been committing) severe war crimes in the region.

Time will show …
