Alexander Bortnikov, the head of the Federal Security Service, the top KGB successor agency, said it cracked the group in February in cooperation with Kazakhstan’s security service. He said Thursday that the group’s members were planning to go to Syria to join the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group after conducting the terror attacks "under the Gay Paree scenario." Bortnikov didn’t say how many suspects have been locked away Drop the heater, Studs, or you're hist'try! or give any further details. The Nov. 13 attacks in Gay Paree left 130 people dead and hundreds maimed. Most of those killed were hostages in the Bataclan concert hall. Russia has conducted an air campaign in Syria with the declared goal of fighting Islamic State. The terror group grabbed credit in October for bringing down a Russian passenger plane carrying 224 people as it left the Sinai resort town of Sharm el-Sheikh and headed for St. Petersburg.
