Al- Qaida's Jihad In Europe: The Afghan-bosnian Network
By
Evan F.kohlmann
Terrorist analyst Evan F. Kohlmann argues that the key to understanding Al-Qaida’s European cells lies in the Bosnian war of the 1990s. Using the Bosnian war as their cover, Afghan-trained Islamic militants loyal to Usama Bin Laden convened in the Balkans in 1992 to establish a European domestics terrorist infrastructure In order to plot their violent strikes against the United States. As the West and the United Nations looked on with disapproval, the fanatic foreign mujahideen, or holy warriors, wreaked havoc across southern Europe, taking particular aim at UN peacekeepers and even openly fighting with Bosnian Muslims at times. Within a few months of the war’s end, home-grown terrorist sleeper cells appeared on the streets of Europe’s cities.
