Hmm....I'm not sure how accurate that is. By reading that, you would assume that everything was the result of fallout in Iraq and nothing was happening spontaneously in Syria. It's very selective in what facts it chooses to list. It glosses over the actual founding of ISIS (Islamic State in
SYRIA) and makes it seem like it was entirely an event that arose in Iraq that met up with elements in Syria. I'd argue the opposite was true. You saw ISIS arise in Syria and then meet up with elements in Iraq.
