Syrian Opposition sources and Western analysts agreed that Saudi Arabia has facilitated the recruitment of more than 1,000 Islamist fighters from Russia’s autonomous Chechnya in preparation for being sent to Syria, the American World Tribune newspaper reported.
Analysts said the Chechens significantly bolstered their presence in the Sunni revolt in Syria since Riyadh assumed responsibility for the war against the President Bashar Assad in late 2013. “One group of foreign fighters is especially worth noting,” David Kilcullen, chairman of Caerus Associates, told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on March 26. “Chechens from the Caucasus, Uzbeks from Central Asia, and Tatars from the Crimea have traveled to Syria in recent years to fight a key Russian ally, learn military skills and participate in the jihad at a time when Russian operations, and those of Russia’s local allies, have made it harder to operate in the Caucasus.” Saudi Arabia denies Lieberman's claim of secret diplomacy - Diplomacy and Defense Israel News.

Saudi Arabia arming, financing lunatic militants: Kevin Barrett. Wed Mar 26, 2014 3:42PM GMT Saudi Arabia is financing and arming lunatic militants to fight for the overthrow of the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, an analyst tells Press TV.
“The Saudis are trying to throw money and weapons at all of these people, mainly at the lunatics hoping that they will go and overthrow somebody else’s government over in Syria,” Kevin Barrett said in an interview with Press TV on Wednesday. He added that the Saudi regime has requested the Western governments to “hand over large numbers of shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles to these [militant] groups in Syria.”
Barrett, however, noted that the West is likely to “reject this ridiculous call from the Saudis for advanced arms for the militants” and would prefer political solution to the crisis in Syria. “If there is one autocracy in the Middle East that is crying out for regime change, it is Saudi Arabia,” said Barrett.
