Please tell me you are kidding.   All world events in some way could then be tied to 'founders of the Islamic State'.   

You could claim Gaddafi is a founder of ISIS considering his autocratic/brutal/terrorist supporting reign.    Take the time and read a quick Biography of saint Gaddafi.   

The Assad government has not been killing its own citizens?   At best it's a draw between factions but I'd wager the body count for Assad/Russia in being to look like the chain saw versus Paul Bunyan and his Ox.    For god's sake please don't try to justify either.
