Basically, they're being supported by Iraqi Sunni groups.
... You would think that with ISIS on a route pushing south on any of the MSR’s .... they are a big enough target on the ground of a featureless desert to pave the MSR into a red highway of death with the help of airborne units raining hellfire upon them. But then again maybe their testosterone mandates that they only fight ground battles and hand to hand combat to qualify for entry into paradise or something. Something us westerners wouldn’t understand.
Whoever they defer to as being in command is the defacto leader - until such time as the various "support groups" decide that it's time for their specific interests to be taken care of. It could turn into an even bigger mess.
And I suspect it's the Saudis, the Russians or the Chinese. Who else has the money, and who else would benefit?
And Zero and his team probably aren't smart enough to ask that very simple question.
