“Counter Terrorist Trends and Analysis” published by the International Centre for Political Violence and Terrorism Research includes commentary-type articles with analysis on existing and emerging trends on topics such as terrorism and political violence, homeland security, religion and violence, and all other areas of security, broadly defined.

Through the years, Al Qaeda has consistently used Qutb’s ideas to further its aims of a global jihad.
