According to Almasalah news, the head of the Badr Parliamentary bloc shared this information with parliament on Thursday, claiming that the group is in possession of evidence pointing to US military provisions to Islamic State and further stating that they will be able to share the documented evidence at a later time.

Al-Araji’s claims of US military support to Islamic State are not the first of their kind, nor are they the first coming from this particular group. In January, Hadi Al-Ameri, the Secretary General of Badr, reported to Press TV that a US aircraft had air dropped weapons in the Islamic State-controlled Salahuddin Province in Iraq.
According to Press TV, a study conducted by a London-based group has also found that Islamic State militants had been using “significant quantities” of arms marked “property of the US government.”
The weapons were believed to have been transferred to the Islamic State from other rebel groups in Syria, sometimes dubbed as “moderate” by the US government. US Senator Rand Paul had also previously remarked on the possibility of weapons transfer to Islamic State terrorists, stating that “one of the reasons why ISIS has been emboldened is because we have been arming their allies.”
As Badr has not yet revealed the documents, it is unclear whether the new evidence would reveal similar instances of US inadvertent support of Islamic State.

Well this sounds like " A friend of a friend of a friends second cousin" type of politics thing.
If Syrian rebels stole the weapons from other groups and they got into the hands of ISIS I cannot come to the conclusion that the USA is willfully arming ISIS.
It's like those people that think the Jews are responsible for everything bad on the planet.
IE The Jews have all the money and money buys bullets and guns so the Jews are responsible for every death type of stuff....
blah.

The key phrase is at the end,
"US inadvertent support of Islamic State." that doesn't gel entirely with what is written at the start of the report. However this is something that has been put to and in the Iraqi parliament, so Hadi Al-Ameri will have dot the I's and cross the T's to be at least plausible and, as to exactly what he means.
To add; Hadi Al-Ameri has also talked about Iran's major contribution to defeating Isis in Mosel, and Iraq is recognizing that, and asking for more help from Iran, and also it has been reported that the US ishappy enough to not interfere in Tikrit while Iranian troops sort it out there.
It kinda makes you wonder too why Netanyahu still had to rattle on about Iran in his American speech, while all this is going on, it makes him look bad IMHO...second thoughts, he was likely talking shiite anyway.

You see, thats the beauty of it. The US CONTINUES to supply the "moderate Syrian Rebels",(ISIS) with the only goal being a war torn Syria, and eventually the removal of Assad. All the while, the US draws every other country in the ME, with the exception of Israel and Saudi Arabia(because they are behind this), thus being able to assess their military power and capabilities, and to use their resources up, because a much bigger WAR is coming to the ME. A war like we have never seen.
Short story is the US has manipulated the ME to fight the ME for them.

Lets not forget that the US was supplying the Syrian rebels a few years back when they were trying to overthrow Assad, and were met with heavy resistance from the Syrian army and the world wide community at large.
