"Answering the call for jihad"
By Ilhem Rachidi

RABAT -

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "The candidates for jihad have dramatically diverse social, economic and cultural backgrounds, yet they unite in their radical interpretation of Islam, and most of all, their conviction that it is their duty to fight against the invasion of Iraq by "infidels".

"Some of these young men grow up with the perception that they are at war with Western society by virtue of their race and religion alone," says Evan Kohlmann, a Washington-based terrorism consultant and author of Al-Qaeda's Jihad in Europe."

"The conflict in Iraq is important because they have a chance to fight the evil USA directly,"

Thanks for the links Oorang. Morocco and other such nations seem to have an overabundance of jihadis waiting in line for their turn at us via whatever damage they can do to our troops. We need to do whatever is needed to prevent the terrorists from accomplishing their evil goals (it IS a war after all). Why can't we implement financial or other constraints against the nations freely importing terrorists to Iraq? Either they are WITH US, or AGAINST US after all.
