Inside al-Qaʻida: The Ideological War
Inside al-Qaʻida: The Ideological War
This chapter investigates the ongoing ideological war within al-Qa'ida. It focuses on the theo-political and ideological disputes between the main ideologues of global jihad, and looks, among other examples, at the dispute between Dr. Fadl and Ayman al-Zawahiri. This final chapter is intended to bring the ideas of these two jihadist rivals face to face in an attempt to address a number of questions, for example: When, how, and why was the Jihad organization established in Egypt? When and how did it come into contact with al-Qa'ida? When and why did Jihad leave Egypt for Afghanistan? What were they doing there? What was their relationship with 'Abdullah 'Azzam, Bin Laden, and al-Qa'ida?
Keywords: Ayman al-Zawahiri, Dr. Fadl, al-Sharif, 'Abdullah 'Azzam, Bin Laden, al-Qa'ida, ideological war, jihad, Afghanistan
