Al Qaeda – Israel’s Private Army
Exposing Israel’s long term strategic partnerships with Islamist terrorist groups in the Middle East. For over a decade Israel has been arming, funding and providing air support for groups such as Al Qaeda – find out the effects of these genocidal policies, both for those living in the region and for Europeans.
The man pictured on your screen right now is Abu Mohammad al-Julani. He is a Syrian militant who is the head of the of Jihadist group Hayʼat Tahrir al-Sham, further more referred to as simply HTS, and since the 8th December this year, al-Julani has been crowned the defacto leader of Syria. He’s the man you will have seen on the news giving interviews and being fawned over by Western politicians and media pundits.
But what these politicians and media pundits aren’t talking about is that he was formerly the leader of Al-Nusra Front, the Syrian branch of Al-Qaeda. The same Al-Qaeda that British and American forces spent two decades at war with in Afghanistan. What’s more, al-Julani was also affiliated to ISIS in Iraq, the famous black clad, head chopping Islamic terrorist group. This colourful history led to the FBI offering a massive $10 million dollar bounty for information on al-Julani in 2017. As part of that call for information, the FBI stated the following, and I quote:
The U.S. State Department designated ANF as a foreign terrorist organization under the Immigration and Nationality Act and a specially designated global terrorist entity. In May 2013, al-Jawlani was named a specially designated global terrorist, by the U.S. State Department, blocking all his property and interests in property subject to U.S. jurisdiction and prohibiting U.S. persons from dealing with him.
