Editors Note: Al-Malahim Media, of al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), published the second edition of Inspire on Oct. 12. This Stratfor Security Weekly from July provides our background analysis and research on the first edition of the magazine and the implications of its publication. On July 11, 2010, al-Malahim Media , the media arm of al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), published the first edition of its new English-language online magazine "Inspire." The group had tried to release the magazine in late June, but for some reason — whether a technical glitch, virus (as rumored on some of the jihadist message boards) or cyberattack — most of the initial file released was unreadable. The magazine was produced by someone who has a moderate amount of technological savvy, who speaks English well and who uses a lot of American idioms and phraseology.
