Glenn Beck Says the U.S. Is Using Islamic State as a ‘Pawn’

theblaze.com In a particularly fiery commentary Monday night, Glenn Beck charged the United States government with “harnessing” the Islamic State for its own gain. “The president prefers ISIS contained. Why?” the show host asked on The Glenn Beck Program. “Because they are a pawn in their own documents for him to get what he wants: Assad out and to have a proxy war with Iran and Russia.”... The documents Beck was referencing is a recently released Department of Defense document from 2012, around the same time as the attacks in Benghazi, and the host says it backs up his claim that U.S. foreign policy “supports ISIS,” which he describes as “quite a charge.”
