Since the 9/11 attacks of 2001, Al-Qaeda is attacking its percieved enemies in another, lesser-known way : through the media. Research conducted by NHK in various locations recently yielded a glimpse of Al-Qaeda’s media war. A secretive Al-Qaeda media group known as As-Sahaab produces propaganda videos on an ongoing basis using advanced computer graphics and video processing techniques and distributes them on video CDs and via the Internet for viewing by Muslims all over the world. At the same time, As-Sahaab skillfully manipulates a satellite television station in the Middle East as a way of using the airwaves to spread messages intended to justify terrorism in the eyes of the world.
