Sample text
30 The best-known of the As Sahab videos are those featuring bin Laden, who has said that 90 percent of his efforts are carried out through the media. Since the 9/11 attacks, he has issued more than two dozen videos and audiotapes in which he has called for attacks on Westerners and Jews, and sometimes has issued more specific instructions, such as for attacks in Pakistan. 31 In addition to As Sahab, Al Qaeda has a media distribution and “public relations” arm called the Global Islamic Media Front.
Although it does have a physical presence in Pakistan, Somalia, and other places, the article posits that it also is a “virtual caliphate” of cyberspace. The Internet binds together the amorphous cloud of jihadist groups, spreads the ideology, weaves together the “single narrative” that Islam is under attack, popularizes militant acts, and distributes terrorist know-how. 1 This issue was raised in The 9/11 Commission Report: National security used to be considered by studying foreign frontiers, weighing opposing groups of states, and measuring industrial might.
Ample documentation exists, in the form of public pronouncements and more substantial writings, particularly from bin Laden and Zawahiri, about Al Qaeda’s rationale and plans. They are laid out and updated in a variety of online forums and publications, offering a “transparency” that may seem to contradict the principles of secrecy that one would assume would be embraced by terrorist organizations. S. policymakers would have been more alert to the possibility of these attacks and also would have been wary about venturing into Iraq if they had studied Al Qaeda’s pronouncements.
