Issue 3 of Qadaya Jihadiyya is out. As I’ve said in the past, it’s the slickest of the Jihadi journals. But this issue is a little thin on original content, indicating that the editors are facing the typical, new journal problem–waning contributions. Still, the original content looks interesting as it’s all focused on the global [...]

Like last month’s debut, the second issue of Qadaya Jihadiyya is slick.

Issue 53 of Jannat is out. Most of the articles are screeds against Hamas, but there is some news from Jihadi fronts like Afghanistan, Iraq, Daghistan, and Somalia. Like previous issues of Jannat, the layout is horrible. Below is a picture of Jihadis from the Caucasus that graces this issue. If I’d seen it without [...]

New Jihadi Magazine
Posted: 19th June 2008 by Will McCants in Jihadi journals, UncategorizedTags: magazines
A new Jihadi magazine has been released: Munasir (Defender). It’s mostly a rehash of old material posted online, which is becoming a common trend.
