Islamic State (IS) (formerly known as Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS)[1]) is a terrorist organization that operates in Iraq and Syria. Founded by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, it grew out of al Qaeda in Iraq[2] and the former name ISIS has been used since its split and rebuke by al Qaeda commanders in April 2013[3] for excess brutality. It was founded during the Operation Iraqi Freedom of 2003. Its current leader is Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. IS currently fights non-Muslims, the Iraqi Army and Kurdish Peshmerga troops.[4] The goal of IS is to construct an Islamic Caliphate in Syria and Iraq.[5]

Ramzan Kadyrov, (Chechnya), 38, said the U.S. secretly controls the Islamic State. [6] However this claim seems unlikely, because the Islamic State was only founded to fight the U.S.
