By now, you have probably all heard of ISIS or IS (Islamic State), who have been taking large swathes of land in Iraq and Syria. We have done videos on them before, explaining who exactly they are and what they stand for. But what you might not know is how they came into being. You might also have thought that it was odd that they seemed to appear from no where? Their rise is obviously an incredibly complex geopolitical issue, but we think the energy policies of various Western governments and the relentless pursuit of control over international oil markets may have contributed to the emergence of militant groups like ISIS. In this video, we have tried to explain why. It is, of course, just one view. There are many others, which we encourage you to look into.
