Reality Check: GOP Candidates Wrong on Origin of ISIS in Latest Debate (except Rand)

[ZakCarter]

“The name ISIS was said over 100 times during the last GOP debate and yet so many factually incorrect statements were made. Ben Swann gives those candidates a Reality Check about where ISIS really came from.”

I like how he has all the Reality Check videos on his youtube channel. When he was doing them in 2012, I remember how hard that was to spread the videos at first, because they were only available on the TV station's site and couldn't be embedded. Always liked Reality Check, he has been very consistent with them.

Thanks CPUd! We've been putting them in direct Facebook embeds too and that's where we're getting the most traffic these days - almost 300k views on this one already, and over 45 million on an Origin of ISIS video we released at the beginning of the year!

The origin of ISIS was Al Qaeda in Iraq: http://www.vox.com/cards/things-abou...w/what-is-isis

Thank you for posting this. I heard our jackass in chief Barack neocon Obama push the same false narrative yesterday. "Assad oppresses the Sunni majority so we must overthrow Assad." Bollocks. Before we said "Saddam oppresses the Shiite majority so we must overthrow Saddam."

Saudi Arabia oppresses pretty much every minority.. Do we ever have to do anything about them ?

Oh but the Saudi majority oppress the minorities so it's okay. Seriously that's the narrative being pushed. Do these idiots not realize that Christians are a minority in the region? So Saddam didn't let the Shiites get their version of Sharia law so he had to go so that Shiite Sharia law could be enforced. Assad won't let the Sunnis have their version of Sharia law so he had to go so that the Sunni version of Sharia law could be enforced. The neocons and neolibs are all for the spread of Sharia law. That's the narrative Rand needs to start pushing.....and it's actually the truth. These people are disgustingly evil.

[jmdrake]

Okay. Ben Swann showed clips from Rubio, Christie and Kasich pushing this false narrative. We need to hammer Rubio on it. Kasich is irrelevant. Christie is almost irrelevant. Did Cruz push the "We've got to protect the Sunni majority from Assad" narrative? How about Trump? We can destroy any candidate who did so if we play our cards right. Assad protects the Christian minority.

Assad protects the Christian minority.

That's why he is the bad guy. Anybody with a shred of common sense is an enemy. Didn't you get the memo?
