UNITED STATES USING ISIL TO ATTACK SYRIA THROUGH BACK DOOR - ANALYST
10:43 08/10/2014 >> INTERVIEWS
Washington has pretexted ISIL in order for the United States to carry
out military intervention in Syria, says a political commentator.
Ken Stone, with the Hamilton Coalition to Stop the War from Ontario,
told Press TV in an interview on Tuesday that the United States is
using ISIL "as a pretext to attack Syria through the back door."
"The fact is that ISIS is a Frankenstein, a monster, that the
US created and went out of its control somewhat," Stone stated,
mentioning the other name of ISIL.
"Now the United States is trying to reign it in," he added.
The analyst also commented on the ongoing battle between Kurdish
forces and the ISIL Takfiri terrorists in the town of Kobani, which
is located near the Syrian border with Turkey.
"I don't think the United States is particularly interested in helping
the people of Kobani or the Kurds in Syria defend themselves against
ISIS," Stone said.
He argued that the issue of Kobani was "caused initially by the
United States, its allies and the Friends of Syria group, who wanted
to overthrow the legitimate government of Syria."
The head of the Kobani Governing Council, Anwar Muslim, has said that
airstrikes carried out by the US-led coalition against ISIL positions
in Syria are not working.
"Washington seems to feel - as usual - that it is the cop of the
world; that it can go ahead without United Nations Security Council
approval and intervene where and when it feels like to mislead a
number of countries to become part of the coalition of the clueless,"
Stone stated.
The ISIL militants have been trying to seize control of Kobani since
mid-September and despite capturing nearby Kurdish villages, they
have failed to take over the town due to resistance by Kurdish forces.
