Thinking globally, acting locally, JosephM. Or, they're all brothers under the skin. Since 9/11 there's been lots of sharing of personnel between jihadi groups, exemplified most recently by the Al Qaeda in Arabia's master bomb maker training European volunteers in Syria/Iraq for future missions on their return to Europe, hence the increased security concern for America-bound flights from Europe/England.

#3 Sahiron was an old Mujahideen fighter. He was the SULU commander of the ASG. They had ties to AQ and to wahabis in Soddi. While I understand most of the ASG has broken down to crime acts and not ideology driven act, I think Sahiron is one of two ideologically driven commanders, Insalon Happilon being the other. Si they are probably not ISIS connected but AQ connections are still there.
