Terrorist groups with a shared enemy or ideology have ample reason to work together, even if they are primarily pursuing different causes. Although partnering with another terrorist organization has the potential to bolster operational effectiveness, efficiency, and prestige, international alliances may expose partners to infiltration, security breaches, or additional counterterrorism attention. Alliances between such organizations, which are suspicious and secretive by nature, must also overcome significant barriers to trust—the exposure to risk must be balanced by the promise of increased lethality, resiliency, and longevity. In Why Terrorist Groups Form International Alliances , Tricia Bacon argues that although it may seem natural for terrorist groups to ally, groups actually face substantial hurdles when attempting to ally and, when alliances do form, they are not evenly distributed across pairs. Instead, she demonstrates that when terrorist groups seek allies to obtain new skills, knowledge, or capacities for resource acquisition and mobilization, only a few groups have the ability to provide needed training, safe haven, infrastructure, or cachet. Consequently, these select few emerge as preferable partners and become hubs around which other groups cluster. According to Bacon, shared enemies and common ideologies do not cause alliances to form but create affinity to bind partners and guide partner selection. Bacon examines partnerships formed by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, Al-Qaida, and Egyptian jihadist groups, among others, in a series of case studies spanning the dawn of international terrorism in the 1960s to the present. Why Terrorist Groups Form International Alliances advances our understanding of the motivations of terrorist alliances and offers insights useful to counterterrorism efforts to disrupt these dangerous relationships.

See on toestisundinud lugu Anna Sundbergist, noorest healjarjel keskklassi rootsi naisest, kes liitub dzihadistidega ja jaab nendega16 aastaks. Tema lugu saab alguse 1994. aastal uksikust salafistidegrupeeringust Rootsis. Naine jargneb oma abikaasale, kelle USA kuulutab hiljemulemaailmselt tagaotsitavaks terroristiks, ning satub nii Tsetseeniasasuvasse salajasse treeninglaagrisse kui ka Bashar al-Assadi vanglasusteemi.Anna Sundbergi tunnistus on erakordne ja seda ka rahvusvahelises plaanis. Islamoli esialgu naise jaoks taiesti uus viis maailma tolgendada. Ta oli volutudkenadest usule puhendunud meestest, keda nais huvitavat rohkem naiste sisemineilu kui valjanagemine. Ent Anna Sundberg pigistas silmad kinni paljudeselliste asjade ees, mis oli meeste kaitumises ebainimlikku ja isegikuritegelikku. Vaid moned mehed, ja peaaegu mitte ukski naine, on julgenud voi saanudavalikult raakida dzihadistide igapaevaelust. Lugu, mille Anna raamatukaasautori Jesper Huori abil esitab, on korraga intrigeeriv ja hirmutav. See ontema tee ekstremismi ja sealt valja. Ta soovib oma jutustusega naidata, et omaelu on voimalik muuta ja inimesed ei pea elama salaparase plekiga omaminevikus. „Ma tahan, et mu lapsed voiksid olla minu ule uhked, et julgesinseda teha,” kirjutab Anna.
