I'll admit we played a large role. Two things primarily caused this group rising in recent history, the vacuum we left leaving Iraq and the vacuum formed by the Arab spring spreading to Syria. The U.S., Iran, Saudi Arabia, and others have at times supported and fought the proto-version of this group... It's an impossibly messy region.
The roots of ISIS, though, go far, far, deeper than that. Only so much of the blame can be passed to the U.S.; you wouldn't see the rise of an ISIS like group following a power vacuum in most of the remainder of the world.
