Qaeda chief annuls Syrian-Iraqi jihad merger - Middle East - Al Jazeera English
Interesting development, there has been quite a bit of infighting within Al Qaeda affiliates over an attempted power grab by the Iraqi ISI affiliate which has caused a major split within the Al Nusra Syrian branch. Seems like a potential split that could be exploited if this decree doesn't ease tensions / solve the split. It's rare that Al Qaeda publicly airs its dirty laundry like this which means that it must be a pretty big deal for them to do so.
