Issue 2 of Qadaya Jihadiyya Released

September 22, 2008 by Will McCants Leave a Comment

Like last month’s debut, the second issue of Qadaya Jihadiyya is slick.  It also has a lot of interesting material:

  • “Crisis of Terminology” discusses the contentious meanings of “Salafi” and “Jihadi.”
  • The strategic studies section has three articles: “Seven Years After September, Has al-Qaeda Achieved Its Goals?”, “Bin Laden and the Globalization of Jihad,” and “The Effect of the New York and Washington Attacks on Many Youth in Groups in Palestine.”
  • “The Jihadi Media Uncovers the Falseness of the American Empire.”  The article surveys the developments in jihadi media, particularly online, and Western responses.

In addition to the article above on Palestinian youth, there is an article on fasting in Gaza.  This, coupled with the pictures of slain Hamas leaders on the last page, indicate that the journal is being produced by someone in the Palestinian territories or Jordan.  Perhaps a younger member of the Qassam Brigades.

One final note: The article on the “Globalization of Jihad” is a reworked version of an article by the same title I summarized in May.  The authors’ names are different, but it’s the same piece of work.
