In an exclusive interview with Al Jazeera's UpFront aired on Friday, Karzai said the US government had allowed ISIL, also known as ISIS, to flourish inside Afghanistan.
"In my view under the full presence, surveillance, military, political, intelligence, Daesh [ISIL] has emerged," he said.
"And for two years the Afghan people came, cried loud about their suffering, of violations. Nothing was done."
Karzai said the US administration of President Donald Trump used ISIL as an excuse to drop a massive bomb on Afghanistan in April 2017.

I never thought that one day I would support Taliban against American made Daesh in Afghanistan.
In sha Allah, we all come together as Muslims to resist the wars on our region, regardless of sectarian, ethnic, or racial differences.
It is good for us to be rid of the US from this region.
I never thought that one day I would support Taliban against American made Daesh in Afghanistan.
And I never thought I would support Bashar Al Assad, but here we are with Israel's attacks on Syria. We need to join together, regardless of differences, and never lose sight of the big picture.
