Are these terrorist barbarians all named Abu? Yes.. it's the literal translation for "Bulls-eye".

"Abu" means "son of". It's like noting that all the IRA terrorists have "O'" or "Mac" in front of their names.

Many of them are. They take nom doe guerres.
So, me being ofrom Australia, if I joined Al Qaeda (as you do) I'd be Abu Al Australii. Some go a bit further and add in other names too - meaning things like Lion of Jihad etc etc.
Its actually a fairly sound military tactic. Makes identification harder and builds a sense of cohesion.
