ISIS is only flavor of the month, from Contras, to Al Qaeda, to the next one around the corner, as long as we don’t have “big enemies” to spend more on defense against, the MIC will keep the fear tactics going to find another.

Sorry, but I see Cheney, Rumsfeld, Feith, Perle, Wolfowitz, and all the other “enablers” under that hood. Without them, Al Qaeda and ISIL never would have become “popular”, and Netanyahu and Likud, haven’t helped much by bombing folks locked in a fish tank for decades, who are just trying to resist THEIR oppression.
Read the spin carefully: ""The terrorist threat was not created by the Iraq War 10 years ago"Note how he doesn’t specify which terrorist threat. Before the 11th of Sept.’99 Islamist terrorists existed.Now, if you ask which group came along and when, then you get a different story.
