US Helping ISIS in Iraq
TEHRAN (FNA)- Former Iraqi Transport Minister
Salam al-Maliki underlined that Washington is on the same side with the
ISIL, and urged his country’s popular forces to expedite uprooting the
terrorists in Al-Anbar province.
“There are compelling evidence which prove that
the US has supplied the ISIL with weapons and intelligence,” Al-Maliki
told FNA on Wednesday.
He noted that the recent statements of the US
officials indicate that they are willing to prolong the battle for
winning back Anbar province.
Al-Maliki, however, said that the Iraqi forces are preparing for fresh operations in Fallujah and Ramadi in Anbar province.
Last month, a senior Iraqi intelligence official
revealed that the US helicopters drop weapons and other aids for the
ISIL terrorists in the Western province of al-Anbar.
“The fighters present at the forefront of fighting
against the ISIL always see US helicopters flying over the
ISIL-controlled areas and dropping weapons and urgent aids for them,”
the official who called for anonymity told FNA.
Yet, he said the helicopters could have also been sent from Turkey or Israel.
He added that in addition to dropping aids, the
helicopters transfer the ISIL ringleaders and wounded members from the
battleground to some hospitals in Syria or other countries which support
the terrorist group.
The official cautioned that such assistance
further prolongs the conflicts in Anbar, adding that when the Iraqi army
and popular forces purge the terrorists from Anbar province, the US
helicopters will transfer the ISIL ringleaders to other regions to
prevent the Iraqi forces’ access to ISIL secrets.
Scores of Iraqi soldiers were killed by the ISIL in two deadly ambushes in Anbar province on Friday.
The restive region has long been a flashpoint of fighting, where the terrorists are largely in control.
Forces stationed in the province continue to be on
alert, and were instructed in a visit by Defense Minister Khalid
al-Obaidi to proceed with “caution and precision,” so as to avoid
“unjustified losses.”
In a relevant development in March, a group of
Iraqi popular forces known as Al-Hashd Al-Shaabi shot down the US Army
helicopter that was carrying weapons for the ISIL in the Western parts
of Al-Baqdadi region in Al-Anbar province.
Also in February, a senior lawmaker disclosed that
Iraq’s army had shot down two British planes as they were carrying
weapons for the ISIL terrorists in Al-Anbar province.
“The Iraqi Parliament’s National Security and
Defense Committee has access to the photos of both planes that are
British and have crashed while they were carrying weapons for the ISIL,”
al-Zameli said.

I'm not sure we can pay attention to anything that comes from Standard and Poor. This agency, like all others, has been corrupted beyond belief. The banking financiers have bought Congress, lock, stock and barrel, and none of the so-called "regulatory" agencies can be depended on to do their job and protect the American public. All government agencies and all others related in any manner whatsoever are criminal in nature and staffed by people with no honor and no integrity. As far as Brazil, the World Bank and IMF have been working for years to bankrupt Brazil and force them to "fall in line" so the bankers can steal or control all their natural resources and assets. The recent list of "suicided" bankers falls short by several thousand. Most are criminals who have escaped prosecution and need to be removed from the face of the earth.
