http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al-Nusra_Front
source re following:
Jabat an Nusra means: 'al-Nusra Front'
Al-Nusra Front is described as a Sunni Fundamentalist 'Salafi Jihaddist' organistion - for specifics see here.
Wikipedia indicates that:
In 2011, Salafi jihadists were actively involved with protests against King Abdullah II of Jordan, and the kidnapping followed by a swift murder of Italian peace activist Vittorio Arrigoni in Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip.
Salafist jihadists groups include Al Qaeda ... [as above here]
Caucasus Emirate
In the North Caucasus region of Russia, the Caucasus Emirate retains a hard-line Salafist-takfiri jihadist ideology:
Tawhid / Monotheism in Islam
Reject practice of the following:
- Shirk [idolatry]
- taqlid [belief in fundamentals of faith with own insight]
- Ijtihad [independent reasoning interpretation of Islamic law]
- Bid'ah [newly invented beliefs or action]
Endorse:
Complete separation between Muslim and Non-Muslimby propagating Al Wala' Wal Bara' :[No idea what this is. Relates to 'one hand' pleasing to the Messenger and the 'other hand' (ie non believers) is not.]
and declaring takfir[excommunication - unbeliever or kafir (infidel)]
against any Muslim who is a mushrik (polytheist) and does not return to the observance of tawhid [doctrine of oneness .. monotheism/Islam]
and the strict literal interpretation of the Quran and the Sunnah["Sunnah is the way of life prescribed as normative for Muslims on the basis of the teachings and practices of the Islamic prophet Muhammad and interpretations of the Quran"] ...
SYRIA
In Syria, the group Jabhat al-Nusra has been described as possessing "a hard-line Salafi-Jihadist ideology" and being one of "the most effective" groups fighting the regime.

Seems like big news.
But unsure whether to post this or not, for two reasons:
1. Could not see news report apart from Twitter, so maybe it's a hoax?
2. Group sounds a really scary to me, to be honest.
