As has often been reported, the Chechens in both Ukraine and the new “province” of ISIL got there as a result of a cozy plot between American intelligence and the previous Georgian government. Many of those in Ukraine cut their teeth in that other US-backed terrorist intervention, Syria, and operatives still move freely between the two countries, on fake Georgian and Saudi passports.
The pledge of allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is nothing more than an application for further US and Saudi funding, the best income the vast majority of these terrorists have ever had. Not even Saudi Arabia, let alone the US, shares the ideology of ISIL and both countries represent the external and intra-confessional enemies ISIL claims to be fighting against. But they have consistently backed this murderous force to achieve goals of their own they do not dare express publicly themselves. Those goals are wide-ranging, but have nothing to do with the Islam ISIL claims to be fighting for.The US is rather publicly banking ISIS against Assad in Syria on the principle the enemy of our enemy is our friend. This is also an indirect attack against Iran, who is baking Syria. Incredibly, the Israeli government is on board with this along with the Saudis.
What has been less public is the use of ISIS against Russia in the Caucusus, which the head of Russian intelligence (GRU) recently make public, and against Russia and China in Central Asia.

Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi Extends Someone Else’s Empire to the Caucasus

I have no way of verifying these assertions but Kamens has strong academic credentials and like Chomsky is into digging deep. If history is any guide this scenario is not only plausible but likely.
