US looks to isolate Syrian radicals

摘要

In an apparent effort to isolate the radical element of Syrian insurgency as the international community increases the legitimacy of the opposition, the US government has designated Jabhat al-Nusra (Al-Nusrah Front) as a terrorist organisation with links to Al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI)."Since November 2011, Al-Nusrah Front has claimed nearly 600 attacks," US State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said on 11 December.
