Though it has long been known that ISIL forces have been using American and Saudi Arabian weapons, it has been found that the number of these is far more than what could’ve been captured in battle alone. There has been some conspiracy theorists hinting at these facts beforehand, however, the complete disorder found in big-picture situation in the Middle East means we should question how much of this we take into complete seriousness. It’s known that over 90% of the weapons used by ISIL originated from Russia, a precedent that was set as far back as the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, so why would it be strange to think, considering the amount of U.S. involvement in the Middle East in the past 30 years, that less than 10%, however significant, of the weapons used by ISIL combatants, had origins within the United States? Being that Saudi Arabia’s influence and power in the region, not to mention the various weapons deals with the United States, it should also not be seen as the uncovering of some new. What is much more important than this, is the fact that Iraqi government has declared victory over the Islamic state, which has added substance to this weapons conspiracy mentioned before. What is even more strange, is that Russian president Putin of Russia has ordered a large amount of troops to leave Syria, even after failed UN peace talks with the Assad Regime and the various rebel groups. I believe the Russian backing and sudden expulsion from a regime known for causing a major humanitarian conflict should be much more relevant today than the fall of the Islamic State in Iraq, or what weapons the crumbling terrorist organization used.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
