al Qaeda: Al-Qaa’idah is moving to Africa 909 Reads

18-12-2008

The following is a translation of an article from Sada’ al-Jihad’s magazine (7th issue; June 2006) which gives insight into the interest of the Mujahideen in the African region. Keep in mind, this was written 2 years ago, so some of the things have changed in favor of the Mujahideen in general, and al-Qaa’idah in particular. For instance, Jamaat al-Islamiyya joined ranks with al-Qaa’idah as did al-Jamaa’atul-salafiyyatu lil-da’wati wal-qitaal as well as Al-Jama’a al-Islamiyyah al-Muqatilah bi-Libya. We have seen a massive increase in attacks by Tandheem al-Qaa’idah in the Islamic Maghreb ever since its joining with the global Jihad; we have also witnessed how they are spreading their influence in other local countries and are sending Mujahideen to ‘Iraq, some of them going to Afghanistan, some of them not ever returning; we have seen the same in Tunisia, Libya, and Morocco. But by far, the hottest conflict in Africa is the one in Somalia and in about a week or so, the war will end in favor of the Mujahideen there, In Sha’ Allah. Sudan and Nigeria appears quiet but Nigeria has its “Taliban Nigeria” organization (influenced by Taliban as you can see) in the North which was formed in 2003, where it rules 12 states by Shari’ah. As for Egypt, it will have to eventually play a major role in the Jihadi revitalization - and al-Qaa’idah has already established a base there - because of three major factors:

America has installed one of the world’s largest CIA Headquarters in Egypt

Palestine is next door

Extreme oppression in the form of violence, torture, and economic repression against the population and particularly against the religious Muslims only leads to a popular anti-Government sentiment; if 2 million Egyptians joined Ikhwan al-Muslimoon in the early days, then that goes to tell you how the Egyptian people in general are looking for a revolution

al Qaeda: Dozens of suspected al Qaeda members detained in Turkey 851 Reads

Friday, December 19, 2008 - 11:52 PM

Turkish police on Wednesday detained 30 people suspected of belonging to the al Qaeda network, the Anatolian Agency reported.

Anti-terrorist police detained 15 suspects in Istanbul and 15 more in two other regions of the country, the report said without giving further details.

They also seized documents and other material during the operation, the report added.

The operations are the latest in a string of detentions in Turkey.

In August, eleven alleged members of al Qaeda were detained in southeastern Turkey, accused of establishing a group named the Muslim Revenge Brigade in order to carry out attacks. They are due to be tried later this month.

A Turkish prosecutor charged Wednesday two suspected al Qaeda members over an attack on the U.S. consulate in Istanbul in July, in which three attackers and three police officers were killed.

Al Qaeda has carried out bomb attacks in Turkey in the past. In 2003, al Qaeda militants killed more than 60 people in a series of bombings in Istanbul.

al Qaeda: Iran vows harsh response for Sunni rebel group 847 Reads

Tuesday, December 16, 2008 - 08:06 AM

Iran will give a "tooth-breaking" response to a Sunni rebel group which has killed 16 policemen it abducted in June, a senior official said in comments broadcast on Saturday. The state-run IRNA news agency reported on Thursday that all the seized police had been killed, after they were taken hostage some six months ago from a checkpoint in the town of Saravan in Sistan-Baluchestan province bordering Pakistan.

Iran said the Jundollah group, which was demanding the release of 200 of its members, has links with al Qaeda. "We will give a firm and tooth-breaking response to armed rebels in border areas," Iranian Prosecutor-General Qorban-Ali Dori-Najafabadi was quoted as saying by Reuters.

Jundollah, which reportedly transferred the hostages to Pakistan after their abduction, previously said it had killed four of them.

Iran says the group's head Abdolmalek Rigi is a leader of the al Qaeda network in Iran.
