reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: AD1030906 | Open PDF

Abstract:

From the end of 2010 to the beginning of 2011, a shift began in Tunisia that swept through the Middle East like a wildfire. There was widespread call for reform and democracy. At the time of this writing, that fire had spread to Egypt, Libya, Jordan, Iran, Iraq, Bahrain and Lebanon. Many are unaware, however, of a similar shift that had occurred in the Jihadist ranks several years earlier.
