The only way I see it even remotely having the possibility of any truth would be that a group of Libyan rebels said "hey, let's keep kicking ass" and joined up with ISIS. This is where my thought of the inadvertent support came in, as we helped in the overthrow of Ghaddafi.
It wouldn't be the first time someone we supported came back and bit us in the ass.
Regardless.... all speculation and hearsay.

Saudi Arabia and Iran are arming, financing, and supporting Sunni and Shia extremist in a sectarian proxy war. The U.S. And Russia are doing the same thing. There are other countries in the region chipping in to support whatever side of the sectarian schism they fall on. Plus there are guys like Saddam, Ghaddafi, and Assaud trying to retain power.  Guys like al Maliki who were supposed to help stabilize Iraq, but exacerbated the problem. It's like putting Barry Bonds on "the clear" and "the cream."  It's PEDs for terrorism. The U.S. involvement is just one piece in the puzzle. It's like all the countries got together and decided to build Frankenstein's monster and they all supplied a body part. 

I'll give you two tidbits which will tell you how F'ed up the situation is. 

1). Back when al Zarkawi was still alive Bin Laden was worried his methods were too violent. In other words, al Qaeda thought they were worse than al Qaeda. They have only gotten worse. 

2). The U.S. and Iran are cooperating with each other in a sectarian civil war which means the side were fighting is so bad we decided to kiss and make up with the Ayatollah Khomeini side. 

That's how F'ed up it is. 

PS What role do you think our cooperation with Iran to fight Sunni extremists like ISIS played in the arms agreement? Reminds me of how Pakistan allowed us to conduct military operations across their border after a sale of F16 fighters.
