it has occurred to me that i may be shit-posting in too many threads, so i have elected to move them all here. ---------------------------------------------- using papers recovered from the founder of ISIS, spiegel went to great effort to investigate the beginnings of isis. from the americans puppet regime in iraq dissolving the iraqi military, to networks formed in abu ghraib, to a little village in rural syria, spiegel is very thorough in their investigation. imo this is a must read. its a long read, but i reckon it needs to be read by anyone that hopes to have a well-reasoned opinion. in short, isis was formed by secular sunni baathist nationalists (saddams people); former iraqi intelligence officers. the people that pull the strings arent 'jihadists', they are former intel spooks. this is what real journalism looks like: http://www.spiegel.de/international...cture-of-islamist-terror-group-a-1029274.html
