Incorrect. The proxy army is owned by forces aligned to the United States, so its ownership passes to whomever the President is at the time, as does responsibility for destroying the figures and the systems which permitted these groups to get going in the first place, which was a segment of the CIA, people representing the military industrial complex of the world, with a co-mingling of other agencies from America, as well as support from the UK government, Israel and a few other minor players, mostly from continental Europe.
Trump announces capture of five 'most wanted' ISIS terrorists who were lured from Syria to Iraq with fake Telegram app messages - including top aide to 'caliphate' leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi
President Trump tweeted that five top ISIS leaders had been captured
Iraqi agents took one of them in February – Ismail al-Eithawi, a top lieutenant to ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi
They used Eithawi's cell phone to reach four of his top commanders with the Telegram messaging app and lure them into a trap
The ISIS terror army was created in 2012 as an al-Qaeda offshoot, re-branded from the previous group known as 'al-Qaeda in Iraq'
ISIS was the most aggressive and effective rebel force in Syria before the U.S. and other Western nations started pushing back with vigor

Hmmm....wonder if any of these 5 met with McCain last February 2017? Remember McCain did make an unexpected trip to Syria then?

Perhaps when they stop being paid with western money from western sources, directed by current employees of the US government, or supplied with arms using networks of supply arranged and maintained largely through the efforts of the intelligence agencies which call America their home?
IS are not an out of control asset. They have always done precisely as they were designed to, just like Osama Bin Laden always did, and like the rest of his goons always did.

Were they the five ol' traitor McGhee McCain was taking a selfie with several years ago?.....
It described the five as "some of the most wanted" leaders of ISIS. They were named as Saddam al-Jammel, Mohamed al-Qadeer, Ismail al-Eithawi, Omar al-Karbouli and Essam al-Zawbai and were shown in yellow prisoner uniforms.
