Conspiracy theory? "al-Shishani served in the US-funded Georgian army, rising to the rank of sergeant"

"The photos of al-Shishani, a Georgian-born ethnic Chechen, suggest that he was the mastermind of the siege as the commander of the northern sector of Isis in Syria and Iraq. He is considered one of the most influential leaders of the Syrian opposition after a series of assaults on military bases near Aleppo, specifically as the mastermind of the capture of a government airbase in August last year which boosted his standing among comrades." "al-Shishani served in the US-funded Georgian army, rising to the rank of sergeant." (thanks Amir)
