  • ISIS in Libya: a Major Regional and International Threat
    המרכז למורשת המודיעין (מל"מ) מרכז המידע למודיעין ולטרור January 2016 ISIS in Libya: a Major Regional and International Threat ISIS operatives enter the coastal city of Sirte in north-central Libya on February 18, 2015, in a show of strength accompanied by dozens of vehicles (Twitter.com, Nasher.me). Since then ISIS has established itself in Sirte and the surrounding areas, turning the entire region into its Libyan stronghold and a springboard for spreading into other regions. Overview 1. In 2015 ISIS established two strongholds beyond the borders of its power base in Iraq and Syria: the first in the Sinai Peninsula, where it wages determined fighting against the Egyptian security forces. The second is situated in the north- central Libyan city of Sirte and its surroundings, where it has established territorial control and from where it seeks to take over the entire country. It intends to turn Libya into a springboard for terrorism and the subversion of the rest of North Africa, the sub-Saharan countries, and southern Europe. The firm territorial base ISIS constructed in Libya is the only one outside IraQ and Syria, and is potentially a greater regional and international threat. 2. ISIS could establish itself in Libya because of the chaos prevalent after the execution of Muammar Qaddafi. As in Iraq and Syria, the governmental-security vacuum created by the collapse of the central government was filled by nationalist and Islamist organizations, local and regional tribal militias and jihadist organizations. The branch of ISIS in Libya exploited the lack of a functioning government and 209-15 2 the absence of international intervention to establish itself in the region around Sirte and from there to aspire to spread throughout Libya.

  • The Derna Mujahideen Shura Council: a Revolutionary Islamist Coalition in Libya by Kevin Truitte
    PERSPECTIVES ON TERRORISM Volume 12, Issue 5 The Derna Mujahideen Shura Council: A Revolutionary Islamist Coalition in Libya by Kevin Truitte Abstract The Derna Mujahideen Shura Council (DMSC) – later renamed the Derna Protection Force – was a coalition of Libyan revolutionary Islamist groups in the city of Derna in eastern Libya. Founded in a city with a long history of hardline Salafism and ties to the global jihadist movement, the DMSC represented an amalgamation of local conservative Islamism and revolutionary fervor after the 2011 Libyan Revolution. This article examines the group’s significant links to both other Libyan Islamists and to al-Qaeda, but also its ideology and activities to provide local security and advocacy of conservative governance in Derna and across Libya. This article further details how the DMSC warred with the more extremist Islamic State in Derna and with the anti-Islamist Libyan National Army, defeating the former in 2016 but ultimately being defeated by the latter in mid-2018. The DMSC exemplifies the complex local intersection between revolution, Islamist ideology, and jihadism in contemporary Libya. Keywords: Libya, Derna, Derna Mujahideen Shura Council, al-Qaeda, Islamic State Introduction The city of Derna has, for more than three decades, been a center of hardline Islamist jihadist dissent in eastern Libya. During the rule of Libya’s strongman Muammar Qaddafi, the city hosted members of the al-Qaeda- linked Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG) and subsequently served as their stronghold after reconciliation with the Qaddafi regime. The city sent dozens of jihadists to fight against the United States in Iraq during the 2000s.

  • A Model Humanitarian Intervention? a Model Humanitarian Alan J
    A Model Humanitarian Intervention? A Model Humanitarian Alan J. Kuperman Intervention? Reassessing NATO’s Libya Campaign On March 17, 2011, the United Nations authorized military intervention in Libya to protect the country’s civilians. The Security Council was reacting to violence between Libyan government forces and domestic opponents that had erupted the pre- ceding month. Two days after the authorization, NATO initiated the interven- tion, including establishing a no-ºy zone and launching aerial attacks on government forces. After seven months, Libyan rebel forces conquered the country and killed the former authoritarian ruler, Muammar al-Qaddaª, in October 2011. Western media and politicians praised the intervention as a hu- manitarian success for averting a bloodbath in Libya’s second largest city, Benghazi, and helping replace the dictatorial Qaddaª regime with a transi- tional council pledged to democracy. Based on this ostensible success, many experts now cite Libya as a model for implementing the humanitarian princi- ple known as the “responsibility to protect” (R2P). Before such conclusions are embraced, however, a more rigorous assessment of the net humanitarian im- pact of NATO’s intervention in Libya is warranted. The Libya intervention is the latest in a series of international military ac- tions after the Cold War justiªed on the basis of protecting noncombatants. This renaissance of “humanitarian intervention” started in the early 1990s, with prominent deployments of United Nations–authorized air and ground forces to northern Iraq, Bosnia, and Somalia. After NATO intervened in Kosovo in 1999, U.S. President Bill Clinton declared, “If the world community has the power to stop it, we ought to stop genocide and ethnic cleansing.”1 The Kosovo intervention, however, had not been authorized by the United Alan J.

The interest and response was overwhelming and furthered our intent to fulfill our goal of covering the entire Arab region. This year we extended the survey to a further ten countries in the region to give a wider and more nu- anced view on the diversity of religious attitudes of the Arab youth generation. The impetus for this survey is simple. Arab youth are the region’s largest demographic. They make it one of the most youthful regions in the world. Today’s youth are the very people who will carry religion forward with them tomorrow. Without understanding them we cannot understand the future trajectories of religious identity and understanding, nor even the resurgence of religion that is evident around the world.

  • Franco-Turkish Competition Ascendant | the Washington Institute
    MENU Policy Analysis / Articles & Op-Eds Franco-Turkish Competition Ascendant by Soner Cagaptay Sep 23, 2020 ABOUT THE AUTHORS Soner Cagaptay Soner Cagaptay is the Beyer Family fellow and director of the Turkish Research Program at The Washington Institute. Articles & Testimony Given their sharply diverging views on conflict zones, secularism, and regional spheres of influence, the two states are swiftly becoming NATO’s next diplomatic hotspot. ecent press reports according to which Paris claimed the Turkish navy “illuminated” a French vessel off the R coast of Libya in June 2020 suggest that the flashpoint to watch inside the NATO alliance is not Turkey vs. U.S., but Ankara vs. Paris. Turkish-French ties date to the 16th century, when Ottoman Sultan Suleyman I and French King Francois I forged an alliance in 1536. France is Turkey’s oldest European friend, but the bilateral relationship has seen its ups and downs, most recently in Syria. In fact today, Turkey and France are locked in a deepening rivalry, centred on issues related to the Syrian and Libyan civil wars, the evolving East Mediterranean strategic environment, and last but not least French President Emmanuel Macron’s and Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s opposing views on regional affairs. Following the rise of ISIS, France built strong ties with the Kurdish People’s Protection Forces (YPG) in Syria in order to counter the jihadist threat emanating from that country. The YPG is the Syrian branch of the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), designated as a terrorist entity by Ankara and NATO member states, including Paris, and therefore the French-YPG relationship annoys Ankara greatly.
