Presentation Transcript

  1. Al Qaeda, ISIL, Split Ties Al Qaeda’s central leadership in Pakistan has officially renounced ties with an increasingly independent ISIL. This move, possibly an attempt by Al Qaeda to reassert control, follows a wave of deadly infighting between ISIL and other rebel groups, which has killed 1,800 – 2,300 since mid-January. Relations between Al Qaeda and ISIL began to suffer last year, when ISIL blatantly ignored an order from Al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri to withdraw from Syria.

  2. Al Qaeda, ISIL, Split Ties • Al Qaeda, ISIL split will likely have a mixed effect on US interests in the region. • Within its statement, Al Qaeda endorsed Jabhat al-Nusra , as its official branch in Syria. • Jabhat al-Nusra, a powerful Islamist jihadi group, is already popular with Islamist and secular rebel groups and may benefit from its exclusive Al Qaeda status.
