| Abstract | After 9/11, the terrorist threat has clearly moved beyond Al Qaeda. In the last two years, Al Qaeda, the proclaimed vanguard of the Islamic movements, has suffered gravely. Who will continue the fight? History suggests that the generational gradation within violent Islamist groups will ensure the continuity of the global and local jihad campaigns. If so, what are the principal differences in outlooks among the different jihad generations? To examine the evolution of the threat, this paper examines the shifting priorities and changing strategies in the global and local jihad campaigns. |
