Summary "I should write a history of the jihadis in my time as I witnessed it and not as it is perceived by the West or those who disagree with us," explains Fadil Harun regarding his motivation to publish his two-volume manuscript al-Harb 'ala al-Islam: Qissat Fadil Harun (The War against Islam: the Story of Fadil Harun). How different then is al-Qa'ida from other jihadi groups? In addition to the introduction, this report consists of three chapters and a concluding section. The opening chapter is an account of Harun's journey as an al-Qa'ida operative as he presents himself; it is also a discussion of the merits and shortcomings of the manuscript in providing reliable information about al-Qa'ida's activities. The remaining parts of the report focus on two aspects that feature prominently in Harun's account of al-Qa'ida: the first pertains to al-Qa'ida's ideology and the second to its organizational structure
