Osama bin Laden

In light of Moazzam Begg’s repeated statements in support of Abdullah Azzam, this blog is running a short series on the ideology of one of the last century’s most influential jihadists.

A week after British intelligence officials confirmed the growing international jihadist threat emanating from Somalia, the media wing of the al-Shabaab militia have released a video re affirming their support for bin Laden and the al-Qaeda cause.

The Muslim Public Affairs Committee (MPAC) is claiming that al-Qaeda does not exist – still – despite the group having declared and waged war against the West for well over a decade now.
