Islamist websites are becoming more sophisticated in their recruitment of followers

ARCHIV - Abu Talha gestikuliert in einer 30-minütigen Videobotschaft, die am 17./18.01.2009 im Internet veröffentlicht worden ist. Gut eine Woche vor der Bundestagswahl ist ein gegen Deutschland gerichtetes Drohvideo der islamistischen Terrororganisation El Kaida aufgetaucht. In der Internet-Botschaft wird nach Angaben der ARD ein sofortiger Abzug deutscher Soldaten aus Afghanistan gefordert. Anderenfalls drohe Deutschland nach der Wahl am 27. September «ein böses Erwachen». Der Sprecher in dem der ARD vorliegenden neuen Video ist nach Angaben des Senders erneut der Bonner Islamist Bekkay Harrach, der sich Abu Talha nennt.
