This Quilliam report is based on an 18-month study of approximately twenty Arabic-language pro-jihadist web forums. Amongst these are notable websites such as ‘al-Faluja’, ‘al-Hisba’ and ‘Medad al-Suyuf’, all of which are used frequently by al-Qaeda, its affiliate groups and their supporters to spread pro-jihadist statements, propaganda videos and ideological tracts.
The objective of the report is to further public knowledge on the threat posed by these particular websites and to contribute to ongoing discussions about how this threat can best be tackled by governments and civil society bodies.
This report is available in English. It was written by Mohammed Ali Musawi and published in August 2010.
