U.S. aid 'spawning new breed of jihadists'

WND.com reports: “Concern is mounting that increased aid the Obama administration has promised so-called ‘moderate’ Syrian rebel forces, who largely have been taken over by Muslim militant fighters, not only could go to the extreme al-Qaida-authorized Jabhat al-Nusra but also the renegade al-Qaida group, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Sham (Syria), which is wreaking havoc in Iraq, informed sources here tell WND.
The assistance given to date hasn’t done much for ‘moderates’ on the battlefield in Syria, who have been outnumbered by the al-Qaida-linked groups.
In addition, increasing numbers of European jihadists have gone to Syria to join al-Nusra and ISIS, which here is also known as DAASH – Dulat-al-Islamfi al-Iraq wal-Sham.
According to regional experts, ISIS is heavily financed by Saudi money. One source said that the Saudis recently allocated some $300 million from oil funds to reconstruct the civil infrastructure of the Syrian city of Aleppo, using ISIS as the prime contractor.
In addition to more than 2,000 Europeans, Central Europeans and North Africans, there are an increasing number of Americans who are joining the two groups in Syria, where training camps have been set up for them…”
