While all that is true, the fact remains that many terrorist/Islamic leaders and movements have been agents of Moscow, and today there exists a not so secret alliance between the Islamo-Marxists and the international communist movement, which, by the way, still lives in Moscow through the “former” KGB and communist party members who have claimed conversions to being mild-mannered politicians.
This is a good article on the subject:

That is not the point if both KGB and CIA had terrorists as their agents sometimes for some tactical reasons. That is how intelligence works. The truth is Soviets were less likely to ally with islamist terrorists comparing to the West which supported and still supports “freedom fighters” of the worst kind. Ideology was everything for Soviet alliances and militant islam is as far from commie values as possible.
And there are tonns of terrorists who are agents of Washington. The entire Saudi Arabia which is the main sponsor of terrorism is a US client, here goes Pakistan and what?
Once again, it is wrong to equal Soviet-backed Baathists and traditionally Western-backed Jihadists. Baathism proved to be a single way of barely civilized nation-state existance for muslims and it worth supporting for that single reason despite many cons. Jihadism on the other hand is opposite. And it won’t be a friend no matter how much support they got.
Yet remember the we (stupidly) supported the Islamic leaders in Afghanistan fighting the Soviets and we still support the Saudis who are the font of jihadiism
