This is total nonsense.

We should be looking at the "root causes" starting with Tony, Dick and Dubya's "crusade" for Middle Eastern oil sold under the guise of hunting for non-existent WMDs and Iraqi yellowcake uranium purchases from Niger that never happened.  A conflict that left an estimated half million Iraqis dead and gave ISIS the opportunity to fill a power void created in the region.

The UK and US broke it... they bought it.
