Jihad 2.0: Hamas, Al Qaeda and the Islamic State

This isn't our typical fare, but although it's a few months old it remains timely and of supreme importance.  If you have time, listen to this enemy threat doctrine of jihad; it's only a quarter hour synopsis of what is normally a an all day or multi-day seminar. Now, you should know ahead of time. This isn't a clip from some “mainstream media source” with sensational imagery from dangerous place in faroff Araby. This is a sobering look at the reality of ISIS – at  how they've managed to recruit foreign fighters more successfully than even Al Qaeda, at the existential nature of the threat and why they are more of a threat than AQ was at the height of its power.
