The aftereffects of al-Qaeda's propaganda--which was regularly disseminated by Western media far and wide soon after September 11, 2001--are still with us
The Connection between Al-Qaeda and Black Lives Matter
FrontPage Magazine
Al-Qaeda leader Ayman Zawahiri made a new video that appeared on September 9. It offers little that is new: 9/11 is again praised and portrayed as a product of Muslim grievances and payback for Western crimes; he vows a "thousand more" 9/11s and warns against apostates being more dangerous than original infidels.
Only one angle stands out--again, not because it is new, but because it sheds light on a growing phenomenon: black violence against police in general, in the context of Black Lives Matter in particular. In last week's video, Zawahiri called on American blacks to convert to Islam, asserting that they will never receive justice and will always live in "humiliation" until they convert to Islam and rebel against the "white majority." He even showed footage of the Nation of Islam's Malcolm X preaching.
