(Such breathtaking indifference to scholarly precision...)
--The US, France, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar, and the Gulf monarchies
have all in the recent past supported al Qaeda and/or the Islamic State
(ISIS) with arms, money, and/or manpower.
--The first example of this was in 1979 when the United States began
covert operations in Afghanistan, six months before the Russians
arrived, promoting Islamic fundamentalism across the southern tier of
the Soviet Union against “godless communism”. All the al-Qaeda/Taliban
shit then followed.
