Who, pray tell, is Shrooms, much less who is this person (or organization)
working for?

And why does this sound like I'm reading something on the PNAC site?

>
> *Al Qaeda ideology*
> Al Qaeda or militant Jihadi groups[1] have an internationalist perspective
> and want to establish a global Islamic caliphate based on a strict
> interpretation of Sharia law. The ideology of Al Qaeda groups is closely
> related to Salafi/Wahabi ideology (the totalitarian political doctrine
> which is practiced in Saudi Arabia). Whilst Salafism is an extremely
> repressive, puritanical ideology which follows a literal interpretation of
> the Quran, it is important to note that not all Salafists believe in
> violent means to establish their goals and that some Salafists are
> prepared
> to work within a democratic system. By contrast, militant Jihadi groups
> reject the concept of democracy holding that their interpretation of Islam
> is mandated by God. They believe that it is a religious duty to defend the
> Muslim community against enemies of Islam and are prepared to die as
> martyrs for that cause. They regard anyone who does not subscribe to their
> ideology (including liberal Sunni Muslims and Shia Muslims) as
> heretics/Kafir. Some, known as Takfiris, believe that they have the right
> to kill heretics. Al Qaeda affiliated groups in the region include
> Egyptian
> Islamic Jihad, Al Qaeda in the Arabian peninsula in Yemen and Saudi
> Arabia,
> Jund Ansar Allah in Palestine, Fatah Al Islam in Lebanon and Al Qaeda in
> the Islamic Maghreb in Algeria and Morocco. [2]These groups do not have a
> broad popular support base, primarily due to their use of terrorist means
> targeting civilians in countries in which they operate and their following
> of an interpretation of Islam which is alien to almost everyone.
>
> *Mainstream political Islam*
> It is important not to confuse militant Jihadis with mainstream political
> Islamist groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood. Whilst the Muslim
> Brotherhood is undoubtably conservative and reactionary, they have broad
> based popular support across the Middle East and North Africa and have won
> democratic elections in Palestine, Tunisia and Egypt. They gained
> prominence during the Islamic revival of the 1970s, as a direct response
> to
> western imperialism. They work to reinstate Islamic laws and believe in
> the
> concept of Islamic unity and the return of the caliphate abolished by
> Ataturk in 1924 although they primarily struggle on the national level.
> They advocate that political Islam is compatible with the establishment of
> a modern, democratic, multi-party state that respects human rights,
> including the rights of religious minorities.[3] Pursuing social justice
> and particularly reducing the gap between rich and poor has been a key
> tenet of their ideology and to this end they established a vast network of
> social services which gained them the support of the urban and rural
> poor.[4] Although they have been known to use violent means to achieve
> their goals, the Muslim Brotherhood officially rejects the use of
> violence.[5]
>
> The experience of countries that have been governed by the Muslim
> Brotherhood show a wide gap between their rhetoric and reality. Highly
> authoritarian and repressive regimes have been established where they have
> come to power. Yet we should not regard the Muslim Brotherhood as a
> violent
> terrorist organization or overlook the support the organization has
> amongst
> broad sections of a religiously conservative population. Therefore
> strategies for dealing with, and opposing, the Muslim Brotherhood should
> be
> fundamentally different from our approach to militant-Jihadi groups. The
> Muslim Brotherhood is prominent in the Syrian National Coalition (the
> bourgeois opposition in exile which is backed by the West, Gulf States and
> Turkey and influenced by foreign agendas). The Syrian National Coalition
> also includes secular and leftist opposition groups (including Christian
> and Kurdish parties), the Free Syrian Army, grass-roots opposition groups
> and independents. It advocates establishing a civil, democratic Syria.[6]
>
> Between the ‘moderate’ political Islamists and Al Qaeda there exists a
> broad spectrum of other Salafist groups which subscribe to puritanical
> versions of Islam some of which are militant. They include Al Nour party
> in
> Egypt, Islamic Jihad and Jaysh al Islam in Palestine, and Ansar Al Islam
> and Ahrar Al Sham in Syria. Further, although the overwhelming majority of
> people in the region are Muslim, many are also secularists, including the
> vast majority of Syria’s grassroots civil opposition. Socialist and
> anti-authoritarian/anarchist currents also exist within Islam with roots
> that can be traced back to the ninth century.[7]
>
> *Al Qaeda groups in Syria*
> The two Al Qaeda affiliated groups operating in Syria are Jabhat Al Nusra
> (Al Nusra Front – JAN) and the Islamic State of Iraq and Sham (ISIS).
> Both
> can be traced back to groups established to fight against the American
> occupation of Iraq and grew in strength due to the sponsorship of the
> Syrian government. This is important to note because whilst the origins of
> Al Qaeda globally go back to Afghanistan, where they were supported by the
> CIA to fight against the Soviets in the 70s and 80s, this is not the
> experience of Al Qaeda groups operating in Syria or Iraq today which fight
> against US imperialism, Zionism and all western influence.
>
> Some of JAN’s members are Syrians that returned from fighting in Iraq
> when
> the uprising broke out in 2011, but many foreigners also joined their
> ranks. Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi, the leader of Al Qaeda in Iraq claimed that
> JAN was its branch in Syria. However, JAN’s leader, Abu Mohammed Al
> Golani,
> has rejected this claim whilst simultaneously pledging allegiance to Al
> Qaeda globally. ISIS is a part of the Al Qaeda network and the majority of
> its members are foreigners. Whilst exact numbers are not known it is
> estimated that together JAN and ISIS have around10,000 members, less than
> 10 per cent of estimated armed opposition fighters.[8] Both aim to
> overthrow the government of Bashar Al Assad, establish and Islamic
> caliphate and a strict interpretation of Islamic law, are opposed to
> Western intervention and are opposed to the US and Israel.
>
> The numbers of JAN and ISIS are relatively small, yet they have a
> disproportionate strength compared to other armed opposition groups. They
> have battle-experience from Iraq and have received a lot of military
> support from Gulf countries, particularly Saudi Arabia and Qatar, which
> aim
> to destabilize Syria through sectarian conflict in order to prevent a
> popular revolution from succeeding. By contrast other armed groups are
> still mainly dependent on light weapons and what they can seize from
> Syrian
> army bases they have captured. JAN and ISIS are concentrated in the north
> of the country, along the Turkish border in Aleppo and Idlib governorates,
> in Al Raqqa governorate, and in the east in Deir Al Zour governorate along
> the border with Iraq. They have attempted to set up Islamic emirates in
> areas under their control, established Sharia courts and placed
> restrictions on the rights of women and minorities.
>
> Both groups have been responsible for carrying out attacks against
> civilians, including suicide bombings, the arrest of opposition activists,
> the torture and extrajudicial killing of Syrian army soldiers they have
> captured, and sectarian killings. Most recently they have been responsible
> for atrocities carried out against the Kurdish population, causing over
> 20,000 Kurds to flee to Iraq in August. The extremism and violence
> practiced by such groups is an increasing trend and major cause for
> concern. Yet, it must be borne in mind that the overwhelming majority of
> the estimated 120,000 deaths and vast majority of cases of torture and
> brutality in Syria over the past 2.5 years have been carried out by the
> Syrian regime.[9]
>
> Al Qaeda affiliated groups have the potential to cause chaos and violence

> *Relationship of militant Jihadi groups to the Free Syrian Army (FSA)*
> The Free Syrian Army is the main, and by far the largest, armed opposition
> group in Syria.  It’s leadership is linked to the SNC. The FSA is
> comprised
> of officers and soldiers that have defected from the regime as well as
> anti-regime elements of the civilian population. It is committed to the

> Syria. The FSA is comprised of many battalions. The leader of the FSA,
> Salmin Idriss has stated he is committed to secularism, yet some
> battalions
> are Islamist (mainly Muslim Brotherhood affiliated), some are secular and
> some are comprised of Christians, Kurds and Alawites. There are even women
> only brigades.
>
> Whilst serious human rights abuses have been carried out by elements of
> the
> FSA, these appear to be mainly isolated incidents rather than wide-spread
> and systematic attacks on civilians and civilian areas. Human Rights Watch
> has noted that “many of the antigovernment groups reported to be
> carrying
> out abuses do not appear to belong to an organized command structure or to
> be following Syrian National Council orders”.[11] When such incidents
> have
> come to light the SNC and FSA have condemned them and called for the
> arrest
> and prosecution of those responsible, something that has never been seen
> from the Assad regime.[12] The FSA is generally held in high regard by the
> civilian population and seen as protector and defender of the people.[13]
>
> ISIS and JAN operate outside of the FSA chain of command and reject the
> leadership of the SNC. Yet, due to their advanced military capacity and
> military successes against the Assad regime, some FSA battalions have
> cooperated with them. The majority refuse to do so, and as militant Jihadi
> groups have grown in strength and carried out increasing attacks on
> civilians, particularly sectarian violence, the FSA leadership has sought
> to distance themselves and condemned their actions.[14] The FSA has also
> been engaged in fierce battles with JAN and ISIS (as was seen recently in
> Bustan Al Qasr) and militant Jihadi groups have expelled FSA battalions
> from some areas under their control and even assassinated FSA leaders.[15]
> It is also interesting to note, that increasingly JAN and ISIS have
> refused
> to fight against the government on front lines and instead focused on
> consolidating their power in areas under their control.[16] This is a
> clear
> testimony that they are not working for the goals of the revolution but
> rather to further their own extremist religious agenda.
>
> There are other battalions that operate outside of the FSA chain of
> command
> and are openly critical of the SNC and FSA leadership abroad.[17] These
> include both secularists and Islamists. One of the largest Islamist
> coalitions is The Syrian Islamic Front, comprised mainly of Salafist
> battalions such as Ahrar Al Sham. Their aim is to establish an Islamic
> state governed by Sharia Law although they are Syrian nationalists and not
> working for a global caliphate or linked to Al Qaeda.[18] They reject
> western notions of democracy.[19]
>
> *Syrian government strategy towards militant Jihadis*
> When the peaceful popular uprising began in Syria in early 2011, the
> Syrian
> government falsely claimed it was fighting Sunni Islamic militant
> terrorists. This was an attempt to discredit the legitimate demands of the
> Syrian people for freedom, social justice and dignity and justify its
> terrifying crackdown. As we have seen, to some extent it was to turn into
> a
> self-fulfilling prophecy. The government sent Shabiha (armed Alawite
> militias) to arrest and shoot protesters and terrorize the civilian
> population, thereby introducing sectarianism into the uprising, despite
> minority groups such as Alawite, Christians and Kurds playing an active
> role in the opposition. In the first five months alone, when protests were
> still peaceful, the UN estimates that hundreds of people were killed.[20]
> Many more were imprisoned and brutally tortured. Assad also released a
> large number of militant Jihadi prisoners from jail in the early days of
> the revolution.[21] The Assad regime has made deals with Jabhat Al Nusra,
> such as paying them 150 million Syrian Lira [$1.15 million] monthly to
> keep
> oil flowing through two major pipelines in Banias and Latakia.[22] It is
> also clear that the vast majority of attacks carried out by the regime
> have
> not been on JAN or ISIS strongholds but rather in areas where secular or
> ‘moderate’ Islamist brigades are concentrated such as Homs, Deraa and
> FSA
> controlled parts of Aleppo. All these factors point to a concerted
> strategy
> by the Syrian regime to allow the uprising to be taken over by Islamic
> extremism and sectarianism which would allow the regime to gain more
> popular support.
>
> *Opposition to militant-Jihadism in Syria*
> Whilst the focus of this article has been armed groups operating in Syria,
> it is important to note that the grass roots civilian resistance in Syria
> remains dynamic and strong and stands against both the Assad regime and
> counter-revolutionary militant Jihadi groups (and is often highly critical
> of the SNC leadership in exile). The overwhelming majority of the civil
> resistance movements are secular, none-affiliated to traditional political
> ideologies and motivated by desires for freedom, social justice and
> dignity. Major grass roots opposition groupings such as the Local
> Coordination Committees have released statements condemning the actions of
> JAN and ISIS and have stressed that they are committed to a “civil,
> democratic and pluralist state” that respects the rights of all citizens
> regardless of religious or ethnic identity.[23]
>
> There have been increasing protests against JAN and ISIS particularly in
> areas where they are dominant, rejecting their authoritarian practices and
> condemning their sectarian ideology and abuses.[24] For example, in Al
> Raqqa, the first provincial capital to be liberated from the regime,
> militant Jihadi groups took over the civilian local council. Where they
> tried to put up the black Jihadi flag, local activists pulled it down and
> replaced it with the revolutionary flag. ISIS also tried to impose fasting
> on the population during the month of Ramadan and have arrested many
> civilians from the city. The people of Al Raqqa have been holding
> continuous protests against ISIS and the Islamic court they established,
> calling on them to leave.[25] Likewise protesters in Idlib and Aleppo have
> held demonstrations against the Sharia Committee and extremist/Takfiri
> killings.[26] As sectarianism has increased, there have been protests
> calling for national unity in which different religious and ethnic groups
> have participated.[27] On 1 August in Aleppo a joint protest was held by
> Arabs and Kurds in which hundreds took part, condemning recent atrocities
> carried out against the Kurdish population by militant Jihadi groups.[28]
>
> Civil society organizations such as Nabd have been established to promote
> co-existence and an end to sectarianism.[29] Likewise, non-violent
> organizations such as the Freedom Days coalition, which comprises a large
> number of groups, promote peaceful struggle and coexistence across ethnic
> and religious lines.[30] In recent days a campaign called Goodbye Da3esh
> has been established to oppose the wide-spread arrests of civilians,
> including opposition activists, carried out by ISIS.[31]
>
> Such initiatives and struggles need to be highlighted and supported. It is
> too easy to adopt the simplistic binary narrative promoted by states and
> blanket thinkers that the choice the Syrian people face is between a
> secular fascist dictatorship or Al Qaeda. As Spanish revolutionaries in
> the
> 1930s fought on two fronts against both the fascists and the communists,
> Syrian revolutionaries have to fight against both the Assad regime and
> counter-revolutionary militant Jihadi groups. It is clear that militant
> Jihadism is gaining a foothold in Syria and that as the struggle continues
> without resolution they will continue to grow in strength. The answer is
> not to support a regime that holds responsibility for creating this

> in the first place. The answer is to stand in solidarity with those who
> struggle against it, in the hope that their voices will not be lost for
> ever.
