The flesh of the Americans

May 30, 2007

A new video (went online about 2 weeks ago) shows the obliteration of a Humvee in the al-Anbar province (Haditha).

A new development is that after the attack, the camera-crew moves in to thorougly tape the effect of the IED. The camera remains at site at all times and then a group of men move in [...]

Pending updates

Please note this blog is not being updated regularly, it is just an attempt to make the jihadi arabic literature and online ‘movements’ comprehensible for non-arabic readers.

 
Pending updates, lets say coming one after another over the next 2 or so weeks:

One or two chapters of the ‘ultimate security encyclopedia’

Speaking about prison – the case of [...]

Prison Blues Preview

May 23, 2007

“Soon – with the permission of God – being confronted with the war of the prisons” (or let’s say prison-wars) by the as-Sahab Media productions.

Being captured or in prison is a essential element in the jihadi literature and ideology – in the famous sawt al-jihad there are numerous articles about the struggle against the [...]

It’s RAND again…

May 10, 2007

I should actually create a counter-counter-terrorism-category. I’ve posted a while back, that the jihadis love to read the RAND reports and they still do.

You can download them directly from the RAND homepage, or use this link provided by the jihadi forum: http://www.megaupload.com/sa/?d=022OSL4Z you will get a password protected RAR file, now what could the password [...]

What it says: from the room of the ansar al-mujahidin: one of the men of the islamic state iraq says the majority of the islamic army in iraq and the 1920 revolutionary fight under the banner of [...]

Peace and Love from the nuclear guy

May 3, 2007

The recent documents by the Jihad Media Brigade on how to survive nuclear fallout are translations taken from an canadian site. I thought it might be a good idea to contact the canadian civil defence engineer, who actually wrote the lengthy and detailed article about the 11 Steps to undertake in case of a nuclear [...]

The thing with Adobe…

May 3, 2007

It’s nothing new, that the Adobe products are widely used among the ansar al-jihad, or whoever has an online account and knows where to find the online forums. Almost periodically the jihadis post new pdf handbook files how to use Photoshop, one of the first handbooks I have discovered so far was as early [...]

Let’s go nuclear… again: the N-Files

May 2, 2007

From the Jihad Media Brigade… posted on 21.04.2007 in the al-nusra forum

(note that one arabic handbook is a translation of the U.S. Army Survival Handbook and another one is a translation of a civil defense document of the canadian government.)

“The dangers of nuclear [fallout].. taking shelter and the means of being safe”

This data went [...]

May 2, 2007

The jihad forum al-nusra merged with the Global Islamic Media Front about 4 weeks ago – the GIMF/al-nusra posted this recently. Keep in mind that the al-firdaws forum and CVC, the califate voice channel, stated their merger some months ago. To give an overview, here is a screenshot of the forum announcement:

All the GIMF related [...]
