THE SECRET WORLD OF ISIS TRAINING CAMPS

Little is known about what goes on inside training camps run by Isis in areas under its control in Iraq and Syria – particularly its religious component. The Isis ideology is generally viewed as identical to al-Qaida’s or the Saudi version of Salafism – adherence to fundamental Islamic tenets – and so there does not seem to be a serious effort to study it more closely. There is also a tendency to play down the role of religious ideology as a recruitment tool, since the motives of many Isis members have little to do with religion.

An in-depth study by Michael Weiss and Hassan Hassan finds that the opposite is true...


The Guardian reports:
http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/jan/25/inside-isis-training-camps

.... these two demographic components – long-standing takfiris (radicals who adhere to teachings that declare fellow Muslims as infidels) and young zealots – are more central for Isis than other members because they formulate the group’s identity and ensure its resilience. In addition, the appeal of Isis outside its conflict zones tends to be primarily ideologically driven.

.... “You first get the basics about religion,” said Abu Moussa, an Isis-affiliated religious cleric in eastern Syria but originally from Aleppo. “They cleanse you from religious innovations and Ba’athist ideas. Issuing fatwas is restricted to clerics and nobody can kill without a fatwa unless in the battlefield.

... Clerics in charge of religious training at Isis, known as sharii, are mostly academically qualified and have longstanding experience within the organisation’s ranks

.... Indeed, one of the fascinating insights we found is that Isis presents the “mainstream” Islam practised by Muslims today as one that was “invented” over the past few decades. To unravel this so-called invented Islam, Isis deliberately digs deep into Islamic sharia and history to find arcane teaching and then magnify it. It does so to shock its potential recruits and demonstrate it is preaching a pure and true Islam obscured by the mainstream.

.... We spread our message by proselytisation and sword. Ibn Taymiyyah said ‘the foundation of this religion is a book that guides and a sword that brings victory’. We guide and the sword brings victory. If someone opposes the message of the prophet, he faces nothing but the sword. As the prophet spread the message across the Earth, we are doing the same.

From CNN international edition:

Charlie Hebdo attacks shine spotlight on Paris's neglected suburbs

Hatouma Diarra doesn't want to be judged by the clothes she wears, by the religion she follows or, least of all, by where she grew up.
But Diarra, raised by immigrants from Mali in the Paris suburb of Viry-Chatillon, says it's as if her neighborhood is stamped across her forehead.
"It's hard to dream when everyone says the place you come from only spawns 'jihadists, terrorists and delinquents,'" the 21-year-old says. "You end up feeling completely isolated."

Viry-Chatillon is just one of the many banlieues -- heavily immigrant, working class suburbs -- dotted around the periphery of the French capital. But its close proximity to Grigny has made the neighborhood synonymous with violence and failure.
Grigny is the hometown of Amedy Coulibaly, who killed a policewoman as well as four hostages at a kosher supermarket in Paris two weeks ago. His associates Said and Cherif Kouachi slaughtered 12 more at the office of the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo. Together they are the worst terror attacks in France in decades.

Diarra's concerns were exacerbated this week when French Prime Minister Manuel Valls declared that there was a "geographic, social and ethnic apartheid" that had developed in France. She believes the use of provocative language only further alienates the people living in the banlieues.
Diarra says that the past two weeks have attracted a relentless and unwelcome media spotlight on Viry-Chatillon, with journalists descending en masse and filming from their cars for fear of being assaulted or having their equipment stolen.

The negative press has dredged up many prejudices and cultural stereotypes that Diarra has spent most of her young life fighting to dispel -- ever since the 2005 riots that left thousands of cars burnt in the Paris region, thousands arrested and millions more traumatized across France.
"Yes, we need better education and, yes, delinquency exists in these towns, but the government tarnishes us all with the same brush. You stop feeling like an individual and begin to think you're reduced to a crime-ridden town," Diarra says.
Diarra believes the media perpetuates certain cliches about towns like hers -- especially the one about how banlieues are full of "bad apples."

It's a sentiment shared by Coulibaly's sister, Maimouna Coulibaly -- now a successful dancer -- who reflected on the 2005 riots in a 2009 interview with the San Francisco Chronicle.
"When you are in the projects, they want you to shut your mouth, to stay here, to grow up complacent. For me, the way that people in the projects are portrayed so negatively in the media really hurt me a lot," Maimouna told the paper.

But Phillippe Rio, the mayor of Grigny, is trying to shatter this image of banlieues as crime-wracked ghettos. Rio grew up in the concrete maze that is the Grande Borne -- the same housing project as Coulibaly.
Rio says it's easy to overlook the success stories of the banlieues in favor of tales of homegrown terrorists, but that not everyone from his town is a criminal.
"Grigny was home to a professional football player, an actress, even a patisserie chef who now works in Hong Kong," he says. "These are all very successful people."

In the same breath, the mayor admits that his town faces grave economic problems. Forty percent of Grande Borne residents aged 16-25 are unemployed. The average net annual income in Grigny is 9,600 euros, according to Rio -- the lowest in the Paris region.
These factors make it very difficult for those who live in the area to feel like they're part of society, the mayor says.

NO CHARLIE ON FEBRUARY 11


Le Parisien reports:
http://www.leparisien.fr/loisirs-sp...2015-4491925.php#xtref=http://t.co/OVkNBrntRy


Translation:


No "Charlie" on 11 February. When will a new "Charlie Hebdo" appear? Not on February 4, that was certain already. But neither will it be February 11, Anne Hommel, communications officer of the title since the attack, said on Thursday

In fact, "no date is set" for the release of the number 1179. The writing team, caught between grief, fatigue and media overexposure, needs time. They are "not ready" to put together a new issue. The only certainty is, as is hammered by editor Gérard Biard, that "Charlie" will continue.

The cartoon festival of Angoulême has created a special award:

Ce week-end sera également attribué un nouveau «Prix Charlie de la liberté d'expression», qui pour sa première édition ira également aux dessinateurs disparus de Charlie Hebdo. Il couronnera dans l'avenir les auteurs qui se battent pour la liberté d'expression.

Translation:

This weekend a new "Charlie Award for freedom of expression" will be presented. In this first year it will be awarded to the fallen Charlie Hebdo cartoonists. In the future this award will crown authors who are fighting for freedom of expression.

French authorities have issued guidelines for recognising potential terrorists. They are receiving a lot of criticism as one of the guidelines appears to say be suspicious of anyone not eating baguettes.....
