Let this former CIA counterterrorism agent (Amaryllis Fox) explain some things to you.

I can't even fanthom why people are up here blaming Obama and his administration for this crap.

Your seriously gonna make a blanket statement like that to dismiss the notion this Administration has made very serious errors and steps in their handling of not only the ISIS, but the Syrian War and the Arab Spring as a whole? Very foolish.

First to your point of CIA or US Military training groups that support our interest...yes it happens, everyone knows that. Did the military train the 50K ISIS army under there Shonda flag, in between beheadings? ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NOT. THEY NEVER DID. They trained moderate* militias that break apart, get absolved by other militias overtime that fight the Assad regime...its not crazy to think that someone who was trained by the US eventually pledged allegiance to isis and joined their group...a lot of time over fear.

ISIS didn't just start with the Syrian war...their roots were the sectarian violence in Iraq and underground war vs the Iraq government and US forces. The one Bush put down after he rebuilt troop levels back up there. A lot of leadership within ISIS were/are x-Iraqi Army leadership.

Specifically to the mishandling of the Syrian War and the ISIS breakout from Syria into Iraq...Remember these words "JV team" by Obama? This is the same type of complicity that have lead to attacks here at home. The Presidents own words: Obama confesses: 'We don't have a strategy yet' for dealing with Islamic State - Washington Times

Look Im not gonna get into what we should have done, that's the Presidents job and his administration. He and his crew have failed egregiously. Peoples lives are in danger here in this country and especially Europe. This was certainly preventable.
