Bro, this is all i have to say about ISIS-K(and i dont like conspiracy theories): But I strongly feel US/NATO created ISIS-K. why? well who have ISIS-K been attacking? The Taliban, America's enemy. Looks like a US proxy against a US enemy that has been conventionally hard to attack and defeat. THis is just how ISIS attacked America's enemies- Iraqi govt allied with shiite Iran+ Assad govt in SYria(in the initial phase of the Syrian war). how did ISIS-K even popup in Afghanistan?Probably via NATO transfer of "personnel" from Iraq+ Syria to Afghanistan. ISIS-K is a very SKETCHY terrorist grp because their origin and objectives are very weird.
