US behind terrorist group, Sudanese President says

The President of Sudan, Omar al-Bashir has accused the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) of being behind terrorist group, Boko Haram.

Al-Bashir also stated, during an interview with EuroNews, that the Mossad, Israel’s intelligence agency, is behind the Islamic State sect.

“I said CIA and the Mossad stand behind these organizations. There is no Muslim who would carry out such acts,” Sudan’s President said.

Al-Bashir also warned that violence alone could not bring an end to extremism.

“Our policy has been largely successful, after we arrest these young people we bring a group of young scholars to engage in dialogue with them about their thoughts, and we succeed to bring a lot of them back from their radical ideas,” he said.

The CIA and the Mossad had earlier been accused by Lebanon’s Hezbollah of supporting the terrorists groups.
