BOSNIA: Interview: Al-Qaeda now seeking young hearts and minds
AKI ^ | 2005 Aug 26
Posted on 08/29/2005 2:59:52 AM PDT by Wiz
Belgrade, 26 August (AKI) - The al-Qaeda terror network is active in Bosnia and the wider Balkans region, but is changing tactics and primarily fighting for the hearts and minds of the local Muslim population, according to a leading Serbian terrorism expert, Darko Trifunovic, a professor at Belgrade University's civil defence faculty. Training is now being conducted in small groups in elementary schools and sports halls, in the guise of social and sports activities, according to Trifunovic.
The greatest success of al-Qaeda in Bosnia is that it has managed to radicalise the local Muslim population and has even recruited several Bosnian youths to fight in Iraq, Chechnya and Afghanistan, Trifunovic told Adnkronos International (AKI) in an interview.
Commenting on recent media reports that al-Qaeda operated secret training camps in Bosnia, Trifunovic, who is also a Serbia and Montenegro researcher for the Washington based Institute for International Strategic Studies (ISS), said that the impact of al-Qaeda's activities in Bosnia has still to be felt.
A report in the Italian Corriere della Sera daily on Thursday seems to lend support to Trifunovic's claim that Islamic extremists are operating in the Balkans. The paper disclosed a recent intelligence operation conducted in the Balkans by Italian secret services in collaboration with Bosnian and Croatian police that uncovered a Wahabi Islamist terror cell based in the eastern Bosnian village of Gornja Maoca, which was apparently plotting terror attacks in Italy. The Wahabi school of thought, the strictest of Sunni Islam, is espoused by al-Qaeda's leader Osama bin Laden.

HIGHLIGHTING PAKISTAN <<<<
That is interesting......
But why do it for Pakistan and not the other countries?
"The fear is we'll see these disparate, relatively inexperienced groups
around Europe hook up with Afghan-trained terror cells, all under the
influence of Zarqawi," independent French terrorism expert Roland
Jacquard told Time. <<<<
Strange that he does not mention America.
I would guess the inexperienced groups are the MS 13 type gangs and the
anachrists, nazi groups, etc.
Wonder if joining these groups together has anything to do with the report that OBL is going to come and join the fight?
Thank you for the truck accident report.
Still praying for Laurie Roth.
"Jet fuel truck stolen from airport"
Oh boy.
Hi Jeff.
