你可能聽過 青年黨恐怖組織,今年這個學期我們談論了太多ISIS恐怖組織,他們有什么區(qū)別呢?
ISIS and al Qaeda have deep ties and along history. In fact, when ISIS begin during the fight against U.S. forces in Iraq, it was allied with al Qaeda and shared the name. It was called al Qaeda in Iraq. And there are other similarities and connections as well.
ISIS和青年黨有很深的淵源和歷史,事實上,當ISIS開始于美國在伊拉克軍隊對抗時與青年黨是統(tǒng)一戰(zhàn)線聯(lián)盟,并分享同一個名字。在伊拉克都稱為青年黨。還有其他一些相似性和聯(lián)系。
Both these groups sprung from long civil wars. Al Qaeda from the fight against Russian troops in Afghanistan. ISIS, the fight against American troops in Iraq and later against Bashir al-Assad in Syria.
這兩個組織都從長期內(nèi)戰(zhàn)中分離出來,青年黨來自阿富汗對抗俄羅斯軍隊組織,ISIS來自伊拉克對抗美國軍隊組織,后來轉(zhuǎn)而對抗敘利亞巴希爾阿塞德。
Both groups seeking to establish an Islamic state, a so called caliphate. Also, both of them willing to establish that state to attack and use brutal violence against both non-Muslims, Americans, Westerners and Muslims as well.
兩個組織隊伍都在尋求建立一個伊斯蘭國,一個所謂的哈里發(fā)。同樣,雙方都愿意建立國家攻擊,利用殘忍暴力手段對抗非穆斯林人,美國人,西方人,同時還有穆斯林人。
Non-Sunni Muslims, but really any Muslim that they consider not devout enough, not extreme enough.
非遜尼派穆斯林人,但是真正遜尼派人他們也極少相信,非常少。
But there are many differences, and it`s - some of these differences that greatly concern U.S. and other Western officials, ISIS has been able to seize and control much more territory than al Qaeda was ever capable of.
但是這有很多不同點,這些不同點中有一些是對美國和其他西方官員極其相關的要點,ISIS已經(jīng)有足夠能力控制青年黨組織占有的領土。
Today, ISIS controls broad swaths of both Iraq and Syria.
現(xiàn)在,ISIS控制著伊拉克和敘利亞的生死存亡。
Two, U.S. officials tell me consistently that ISIS behaves and seizes and controls territory very much like a military force, not just a terrorist organization. They are much more difficult to fight.
第二點,美國官員一直告訴我說ISIS行為和占有土地行為就像是一個軍事力量所為,并不像是一個恐怖組織。他們更難對付。
Three, ISIS is largely self-funding. It operates as a government in the territory that it controls issuing taxes. It also uses extortion and theft to get money and it even sails oil in areas like it has captured in Iraq and Syria. And by some estimates it`s making a $1000000 a day or more.
第三點,ISIS有充足的資金配備。它還運用敲詐盜竊來收集錢財,甚至對已經(jīng)占領的伊拉克和敘利亞進行石油出口。據(jù)估計其每天可獲益一百萬美元以上。
Finally, although there were some Westerners who joined al-Qaeda, Anwar al- Awlaki among them, ISIS has proven a much more powerful magnet for Westerners and Americans. It`s now believed U.S. intelligence officials say that something along the lines of a dozen Americans have joined ISIS and dozens more have joined other extremist groups in Syria. And the great concern is what happens when those Americans, when those Europeans come home. Do they bring Jihad with them?
最后一點,盡管一些西方人加入了青年黨,安瓦爾基地,ISIS證明了其對西方人和美國人就像是一塊強大的磁鐵?,F(xiàn)在美國情報機構官員稱十幾個美國人已經(jīng)加入了ISIS統(tǒng)一戰(zhàn)線,數(shù)十人加入了敘利亞其他極端組織。讓人更多關心的是這些美國人身上后來發(fā)生了什么,什么時候這些歐洲人才可以回家,他們會把圣戰(zhàn)組織分子帶回國么?
You`ve heard of the al Qaeda terrorist group. This school year we`ve been talking more about ISIS. What is the difference?
ISIS and al Qaeda have deep ties and along history. In fact, when ISIS begin during the fight against U.S. forces in Iraq, it was allied with al Qaeda and shared the name. It was called al Qaeda in Iraq. And there are other similarities and connections as well.
