The Front is officially opposed to and critical of Al-Qaida in Iraq, and comprises three groups: the Islamic Army in Iraq, the Mujahideen Army, and some senior leaders from the Sharia Commission of Ansar al-Sunnah, according to the Front's founding notice. Leaflets recently plastered on walls in the western city of Fallujah said another insurgent group, the 1920 Revolution Brigades, may have joined the front as well.
