Ahmad Musa Jibril
Ahmad Musa Jibril was a profound english speaker that preached radical and narrow minded teachings of Islam via twitter, his website, and most prominent his youtube channel. These youtube videos were very popular and his website where you can download mp3s and articles of followers along with Jibril’s summaries of their interpretation of radical Islam and convey these messages in Arabic and fluent English. Was prosecuted back in 2003 for money laundering around $250,000 he had received six and half years in jail and three years court supervision after his time served. His supervision has expired a couple years ago and has not answered to where the money was coming from. Jibril was born a U.S. citizen in Spring of 1975 in

On November 13, 1995 a car bomb at the Khobar Towers, a U.S. military dormitory in Saudi Arabia, kills six people including four Americans. This comes to context because a day later Ahmad Musa Jibril sends a fax to CNN claiming responsibility for the Khobar Towers. After some investigation it is found that U.S. authorities do not believe Jibril is responsible. It is found later that it is from the Hezbollah militant group. In my opinion this was to gain some sort of title as if claiming the title to someone else's work because if he were to just come forward with it that is a different scenario, but rather he jumped the gun and submitted a fax straight to CNN. This work is of terrorism, but abides by Jibril’s radical Islamist and Salafist views and promotes his name which later helps in his radical “youtube and twitter campaign.” Even if he did or didn’t do it it still got his name out there and terrorism has just one thing that feeds it and that is media …show more content…
In violating his probation he is ordered in June of 2014 according to the Detroit Free Press, “a U.S. federal judge orders Jibril to remain in eastern Michigan and wear a tracking device for violating his probation. The judge also orders the monitoring of Jibril’s Internet communications, which federal officials say will ensure Jibril does not encourage Americans to fight in Syria. Jibril must turn over all of his passwords and get approval to use any computer equipment.”
This has crippled the online “cheerleader” for radical Islam with no money and too much attention he can’t focus on his youtube and twitter social media campaign anymore so the 40,000+ twitter followers, 270,000+ facebook likes, and the 11,000+ youtube subscribers will have to keep regurgitating his previous teachings and lessons until he comes

    Such terrorists understand the potential and power that the United States government holds and made attempts to mend their ways. The most taboo theories was President George W.

    Though relatively normal in his mid-adolescence, bin Laden soon gravitated towards radical ideas. Lawrence Wright explains this change on page 88 of his book, stating that “[bin Laden was] exposed to so few alternative ways of thinking even in Islam [and] was trapped in a two-dimensional spiritual world; [he] could only become more extreme or less so.” bin Laden cut off everything associated with the West from his life, and became infuriated when something he deemed unworthy of God played on the radio or television (Wright 88). According to Wright’s book, “[Osama] loved adventure and poetry and little else but God” (87). His piety dictated his life, and soon “...as stated in his unclassified CIA biography...…

    Terrorism is an extremely prevalent problem in the world today. Every month there is news of a bombing in some city, or a shooting in some neighborhood, and Western media has made Islam the face of terrorism. While Jihadists only make up a fraction of the proponents of terrorism, the media has caused “terrorism” to be synonymous with “Muslim.” Even understandable acts of rebellion, like the liberation movement of Palestine against Israel, are seen as Islamic radicalism because misguided individuals perpetrate acts of terrorism. The movie Paradise Now, by director Hany Abu-Assad, shows the ordeals of two friends, Khaled and Said, who enlist in a Palestinian resistance group to coordinate suicide attacks on Tel Aviv, Israel.…
