I'm tremendously thrilled to see the publication of my report "Polemical and Fratricidal Jihadists: A Historical Examination of Debates, Contestation and Infighting Within the Sunni Jihadi Movement" by the @ICSR_Centre
icsr.info/wp-content/upl…
@ICSR_Centre Some of the findings/conclusions of the report are summarised in this infograph
In 2013-14, conflict erupted between al-Qaida and the Islamic State. Since then the two groups have been engaged in a military and discursive campaign to kill and delegitimise one another.

Internal conflict is no stranger to the Jihadi movement, however.
Albeit less severe, Jihadists have disagreed, debated, contested one another and fought on several occasions. This report intends to provide a brief overview of some of these experiences of internal conflict, which eventually resulted in the definition of the 'internal enemy'.
A big thanks to @ICSR_Centre and @ShirazMaher for publishing the report!
@ICSR_Centre @ShirazMaher And not least to @jo_furst!

Quickly browsing through the Azan magazine published by the Pakistani Taliban (TTP) between March 2013 and Summer 2014. Lots of great stuff in their and need to study it closer at some point. Here's a few initial interesting observations though:
Some of the stuff really shows the difference between the AFGHAN Taliban and the PAKISTANI Taliban. These two posters for instance
It also includes an article directed towards Jihadis in the West and all the 'bad excuses' they may have for not committing to Jihad

An interesting case is unfolding at the moment, revealing that a Dane (Danish-Lebanese) was heading the Islamic State's drone unit and a central figure in its amn khariji (external operations).

Here's a summary.
The man, Basil Hassan, has been a wanted figure in Denmark since 2013 when he attempted to assassinate a Danish Islam critic Lars Hedegaard and afterwards fled to Turkey where he was arrested. At some point, Hassan was released by the Turks and he entered Syria to join IS.
Once in the caliphate, Hassan was allegedly in charge of the Islamic State's drone program, katibat al-bara' ibn malik, which was intended both for reconnaissance and for military use.

For years till now, the Americans have not realized the extent of the mistakes they have repeatedly made with regard to the tribes file particularly in #DeirEzzor.
Since the #SDF started their battles against Daesh in #DeirEzzor, they have begun forming a lobby of tribal figures in Deir Ezzor to be under their wing, but unfortunately these tribal figures,
who appear every time with the personalities visiting the region are only for filming and photography and has no real influence in the sense of the tribe or the clan,

(1) I do not know what to think of the #Obama Iran scandal.

It simply does not make sense. Obama is a Sunni apologist and a supporter of the #MB which is a #Sunni Islamist movement.

Shi'a ideologues in Iran politically and religiously oppose Sunni ideologies.
(2) Obama's alleged father in Kenya and his family (purportedly from the Luo ethnic group - despite that he looks like a Somali) were/are adherents of Sunni Islam.

The majority of Obama's Muslim backers in the US and abroad - are Sunni, not Shi'a. And for those of you who ....
(3) are not familiar with Islam, the ideologues of the two different belief systems have polarized/juxtaposed positions in most all cases. They also have an inherent religious loyalty or "backbone" which is inflexible.

Consideration of the other "avenue of belief" is ....

 This young man is Muhammad Sharif Badwan. He was killed East of #Gaza City at the Karni crossing after being shot in the chest by #IDF gunfire on Friday afternoon. #Israel
2/5
 Many news sites refer to Badwan as either a protestor or a demonstrator who was shot and killed by the #IDF. The photo on the left, from the DailyMail, states Badwan is a protestor. The photo on the right from CGTN states Badwan is a protestor as well.
3/5
 The problem is Badwan wasn’t there to protest in the way most people think. This video was taken Friday afternoon at the Karni crossing where Palestinians were clashing w/ #IDF soldiers. At the end, you can see Badwan being evacuated after getting shot by the #IDF.

#b Excellence is overrated, competence is underrated.
Competence is knowing what to do in a situation and how to do it. It is not the same as excellence.
Excellence is dependent on other people, like judges, examiners, teachers, assessors, inspectors, auditors. But we can't control these people and whether they think we're excellent or not.

#b 'Teknik menjawab' is not a series of rituals that you carry out to secure an A in the exam. You don't get guaranteed an A just through superficial actions like highlighting keywords or drawing meniscus or inserting isi tersirat.
The problem is students and teachers treat teknik menjawab as some sort of pseudo magical ritualistic gestures that will bring a certain outcome. Draw a pentagram, slaughter a chicken, and your wish will be granted.
Some remote Pacific Islanders in 1940s came in contact with Allied and Japanese soldiers who were more technologically advanced and thought the soldiers were gods who had many "cargo" (canned food, electronics, modern stuff)
