Lead singer of rock band Muse, Matthew Bellamy left a pretty cryptic reply to a fan’s question, “What do you think about all that “ISIS” stuff?”
He answered with a video from a 1990 C-SPAN interview with Dan Raviv and Yossi Melman, discussing their book about Israeli espionage.
He points us to 22:13 – 23:00 where Raviv says the English name for “Mossad”, is the Israeli Secret Intelligence Service, or ISIS.
This left me scratching my head because of a few things.
1) What supermassive black hole did he pull this obscure clip from?
2) Is the lead singer of Muse suggesting that the Mossad has some kind of a connection with Islamic State because of a coincidental acronym coined 9 years before the terror group’s establishment?
“@UnnaturalDesire: What do you think about all that "ISIS" stuff?” This is interesting from 22:13 – 23:00 http://t.co/WfPlRlsBYR

My guess he somehow saw this and is trying to be funny, but these kind of statements are like nectar for the anti-Israel conspiracy theorists so watch out!
Anyway, in response I thought I’d make a conspiracy theory of my own with an obscure clip.
ISIS is HOMER!
edit… silly me, in a rush I forgot to h/t @extreme_name on Twitter. Thank you!
