There is the Taliban created using the ISI
There is the Caucasus Jihadists created using MIT, and Saudi Intelligence
There is 'al-CIA-duh' using Saudi money
There is the Sinkiang separatists created via Pakistan/Turkey and Saudi money with the USA
Then there is the al-Nusra front created by the USA, using Turkey, Saudi Arabia and certain Gulf States.
Such American created terrorist groups, trained by the USA can never bring peace and progress in such countries....only war, strife, fighting and DESTABILIZATION.

Al-Qaeda Fighters Merge With ISIS at Syria-Iraq Border
After Weeks of Fighting, Nusra Commander Pledges Loyalty to ISIS
By Jason Ditz at antiwar.com
The move reflects the growing ISIS control of the border between Iraq and Syria, and as ISIS was expanding its hold in Syria’s Deir Ezzor Province, Nusra could no longer practically resist them.
Nusra and ISIS were initially both al-Qaeda affiliates, but ISIS has since been disavowed over its tactics. As ISIS becomes more successful than al-Qaeda itself ever was, groups like Jabhat al-Nusra may be finding themselves looking to switch sides to the ideologically very similar faction.
The question of this merger being repeated is non-trivial, as Nusra is likely the second most successful rebel faction in Syria behind ISIS, and a merger would expand ISIS control over much of Syria, ending the disputed status of many towns.
