50,000--100,000 well armed ISIL/ISIS men equipped with surplus American military hardware, and yellow TOYOTA pickups specially fitted in red neck Texas came out of NATO deonme Turkey, and special ops Western puppet Jordan....the King there is half English, and is sometimes spotted making silly puerile Masonic signs with foreign leaders.
Then
The Americans say....'Where did they come from?".....I don't know....a bit like oh ah where did those four passenger planes come from during 9/11? Why weren't they detected for 40 minutes? Not one single piece of shit sacked there after?
In fact ISIS/ISIL, with the very timely FAKE beheadings is in fact a Zionist GLADIO operation to destabilize the Middle East for Greater Israel or Eretz Israel, articulated CLEARLY in the 1996 document: "A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm............' written by Israel/American neo-cons.
Turkey, Jordan, the USA and UK are 'merely' old toothless servile prostitutes to this ZIONIST policy.
Saudi Arabia and Qatar provide MONEY and some American arms, but are not the main problem, or for that matter the only problem to the ISIS/ISIL business.
Wahabism and Salafism is a problem that is given teeth by the Zionist prostitutes in the West and the ME region.

British/American air campaign “missing the point.”–Wahhabi Salafism Is the Danger
General Jonathan Shaw, Britain’s former Assistant Chief of the Defence Staff, says Qatar and Saudi Arabia responsible for spread of radical Islam
.
Qatar and Saudi Arabia have ignited a “time bomb” by funding the
global spread of radical Islam, according to a former commander of
British forces in Iraq.
.
.
General Jonathan Shaw, who retired as Assistant Chief of the Defence
Staff in 2012, told The Telegraph that Qatar and Saudi Arabia were
primarily responsible for the rise of the extremist Islam that inspires
Isil terrorists.
.
.
The two Gulf states have spent billions of dollars on promoting a
militant and proselytising interpretation of their faith derived from
Abdul Wahhab, an eighteenth century scholar, and based on the Salaf, or
the original followers of the Prophet.
.
.
But the rulers of both countries are now more threatened by their
creation than Britain or America, argued Gen Shaw. The Islamic State of
Iraq and the Levant (Isil) has vowed to topple the Qatari and Saudi
regimes, viewing both as corrupt outposts of decadence and sin.
(Hezbollah was sanctioned by Israel in the 1980's........and HAMAS directly created by Israel in the the1970's.......The Muslim Brotherhood created by the UK in 1928, in Egypt to head off secular progressive nationalism, and the Mullahs of Iran installed by the USA/UK in 1979)

.
So Qatar and Saudi Arabia have every reason to lead an ideological
struggle against Isil, said Gen Shaw. On its own, he added, the West’s
military offensive against the terrorist movement was likely to prove
“futile”.
(The leaders of Saudi Arabia and Qatar don't think rationally like the general.....but more like Israel.. and the crisis management mindset that comes from total unaccountability and sheer hubris...'I can control anything and everything')

“This is a time bomb that, under the guise of education, Wahhabi
Salafism is igniting under the world really. And it is funded by Saudi
and Qatari money and that must stop,” said Gen Shaw. “And the question
then is ‘does bombing people over there really tackle that?’ I don’t
think so. I’d far rather see a much stronger handle on the ideological
battle rather than the physical battle.”
.
Gen Shaw, 57, retired from the Army after a 31-year career that saw him lead a platoon of paratroopers in the Battle of Mount Longdon, the bloodiest clash of the Falklands War, and oversee Britain’s withdrawal from Basra in southern Iraq. As Assistant Chief of the Defence Staff, he specialised in counter-terrorism and security policy.
.
All this has made him acutely aware of the limitations of what force can achieve. He believes that Isil can only be defeated by political and ideological means. Western air strikes in Iraq and Syria will, in his view, achieve nothing except temporary tactical success.
.
When it comes to waging that ideological struggle, Qatar and Saudi Arabia are pivotal. “The root problem is that those two countries are the only two countries in the world where Wahhabi Salafism is the state religion – and Isil is a violent expression of Wahabist Salafism,” said Gen Shaw.
.
“The primary threat of Isil is not to us in the West: it’s to Saudi Arabia and also to the other Gulf states.”
(Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Turkey and Iran)
.
Both Qatar and Saudi Arabia are playing small parts in the air campaign against Isil, contributing two and four jet fighters respectively. But Gen Shaw said they “should be in the forefront” and, above all, leading an ideological counter-revolution against Isil.
.
The British and American air campaign would not “stop the support of people in Qatar and Saudi Arabia for this kind of activity,” added Gen Shaw. “It’s missing the point. It might, if it works, solve the immediate tactical problem. It’s not addressing the fundamental problem of Wahhabi Salafism as a culture and a creed, which has got out of control and is still the ideological basis of Isil – and which will continue to exist even if we stop their advance in Iraq.”
.
Gen Shaw said the Government’s approach towards Isil was fundamentally mistaken. “People are still treating this as a military problem, which is in my view to misconceive the problem,” he added. “My systemic worry is that we’re repeating the mistakes that we made in Afghanistan and Iraq: putting the military far too up front and centre in our response to the threat without addressing the fundamental political question and the causes. The danger is that yet again we’re taking a symptomatic treatment not a causal one.”
.
Gen Shaw said that Isil’s main focus was on toppling the established regimes of the Middle East, not striking Western targets. He questioned whether Isil’s murder of two British and two American hostages was sufficient justification for the campaign.
.
“Isil made their big incursion into Iraq in June. The West did nothing, despite thousands of people being killed,” said Gen Shaw. “What’s changed in the last month? Beheadings on TV of Westerners. And that has led us to suddenly change our policy and suddenly launch air attacks.”
.
He believes that Isil might have murdered the hostages in order to provoke a military response from America and Britain which could then be portrayed as a Christian assault on Islam. “What possible advantage is there to Isil of bringing us into this campaign?” asked Gen Shaw. “Answer: to unite the Muslim world against the Christian world. We played into their hands. We’ve done what they wanted us to do.”
.
However, Gen Shaw’s analysis is open to question. Even if they had the will, the rulers of Saudi Arabia and Qatar may be incapable of leading an ideological struggle against Isil. King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia is 91 and only sporadically active. His chosen successor, Crown Prince Salman, is 78 and already believed to be declining into senility. The kingdom’s ossified leadership is likely to be paralysed for the foreseeable future.
.
Meanwhile in Qatar, the new Emir, Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani, is only 34 in a region that respects age. Whether this Harrow and Sandhurst-educated ruler has the personal authority to lead an ideological counter-revolution within Islam is doubtful.
.
Given that Saudi Arabia and Qatar almost certainly cannot do what Gen Shaw believes to be necessary, the West may have no option except to take military action against Isil with the aim of reducing, if not eliminating, the terrorist threat.
.
“I just have a horrible feeling that we’re making things worse. We’re entering into this in a way we just don’t understand,” said Gen Shaw. “I’m against the principle of us attacking without a clear political plan.”
