Yes, it was created in Belgium by FN-Herstal, a firearms corporation, for SOCOM (United States Spec Ops Command).

What is better JLS FN scar or JLS FN 2000?

Just the fact the the FN-F2000's ejection system was specially designed to be ambidextrous without any special mods is a big +1 in my book. Both (standard, non-variant) weapons fire 5.56mm ammo, the norm for assault rifles, but only the FN-SCAR can fire larger 7.62mm NATO rounds. Then again, the FN-SCAR uses small 20-round magazines, while F2000 rifles provide 10 more rounds. I give my edge to the F2000.

No such nomenclature. You're probably thinking of the Mk 13 Mod 0, which is a 40mm grenade launcher designed by Fabrique Nationale for use with the FN SCAR. The launcher itself is marketed as the GL1, and was designed for use with the FN-2000. Mk 13 Mod 0 is a USSOCOM nomenclature for a variant of the GL1, designed for use with the FN SCAR.
