– JIHADI PROPAGANDA
On 05/23/2008, a video interview with a German convert – Eric Breininger was posted by As-Sahab in a website related to the “Islamic Jihad Union” (-IJU). It was the beginning of a propaganda campaign targeting the German policy toward Afghanistan and encouraging German Muslim citizens to join the Global Jihad.

Bekkay Harrach left Germany, already in early 2007, while the Chouka Brothers left to Northern Pakistan in fall 2008.

The elections scheduled to late 09/2009 (see also the case of Samir-Khan ).
