Hmmmm.......Seems my gut feeling a year ago was right, ISIS was working with Turkey the goal was Kurdish Oil. (See Below).

It has come to light that the ISIS terror organization and its supporters planned details of the attack on Mosul in a hotel in Istanbul under the protection of the Turkish Intelligence Organization between the 28 February and 2 March. The militants reportedly met in Jordan’s capital Amman on the 1 June and invaded Mosul a week later.
