#1 the Northern Storm Brigade named themselves to highlight that they were against Assad's operation Northern Storm, the operation to retake Aleppo.

the NS brigades captured some Shia (the Assad forces say the Shia were pilgrims, the NSbrigades think they may have been advance agents of the Hezbollah)back in the summer of 2012

earlier this summer Sen McCain met some of the NSBrigade people who in turn are part of the FSA coalition

#2 Are those the ones who turned out, most embarrassingly, to be connected to Al Qaeda, lord garth?
