I think it's the same as groups like Al-Nusra Front in Syria, those are the types of groups willing to do the fighting even if they are ideologically stinky, so we will support them for now so they can do the fighting, and then try to make sure they don't achieve much more power later on.

Which unfortunately, has almost always failed.

This time it is also important to remember, that these are not some separate insurgents, these are entities entangled with government, which normalizes it.
