NEFA Report: An Analysis of Spain's January's Suicide Bombers Case
By Douglas Farah
The NEFA Foundation has published an paper looking at the January indictment of nine Pakistani and one Indian citizen for allegedly planning terrorist attacks near Barcelona, Spain. The paper looks at the case in the context of the rise in Spain of the threat of radical Islamist terrorist attacks. Spain, al Andalus in Islamist world view, is rightfully part of the Islamic word and therefore attacks there justified as "defensive jihad" to recoup Muslim land, rather than offensive jihad, a much more controversial theological tenet.
