Jihadis look for after these frameworks using propelled, current systems for correspondence and promoting. They section social occasions of individuals and conform their message to the group, apply a bit of the same PR techniques used by sweeping associations, conduct disinformation fights, and encourage correspondence with operations. They do this using a grouping of present day implies, including routine wide interchanges and new media channels. This paper places particular highlight on new media channels, especially the Internet, to appreciate the implications of a “virtual jihad”, the intra-jihadist struggle increasingly pits the long-established global entity of al-Qaeda with a clear and disciplined approach to terror against an incredibly active and seemingly reckless ISIS. Nowhere are ISIS issues more visible than in South Asia, where ISIS has made minimal inroads against al-Qaeda’s ascendance despite the fact that countries like Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh are hotbeds of Islamic radicalism ripe with recruits. A curious combination of pre-established pathways for those aspiring to jihad, a relatively unreceptive Muslim community in India, and cunning al-Qaeda messaging has combined to stifle ISIS. The present book aims at catering to this curiosity of the readers.
