The 1980s
In the 1980s, religious extremist groups pursuing violent propaganda of the deed were begun to increase in number. Many of them drew inspiration from Iran’s 1979 Islamic Revolution, especially Hezbollah. Other well-known Islamic terrorist groups include Hamas, Egyptian Islamic Jihad, and Al-Qaeda.
The Contras
The Contras were a wild counter-revolutionary powerful militia formed in 1979 to oppose Nicaragua’s Sandinista government. The Catholic Institute for International Relations summarized contra operating procedures in their 1987 human rights report: “The record of the contras in the field, as opposed to their official professions of democratic faith, is one of consistent and bloody abuse of human rights, of murder, torture, mutilation, rape, arson, destruction and kidnapping.”Americas Watch – subsequently folded into Human Rights Watch – stated that “the Contras systematically engage in violent abuses… so prevalent that these may be said to be their principal means of waging war.”It accused the Contras of targeting health care clinics and health care workers for assassination; kidnapping, torturing executing civilians, including children and women , who were forcefully captured in combat; raping women; extortion, indiscriminately attacking civilians and civilian houses; seizing civilian property; overtaking the lands, and burning civilian houses in captured towns. An influential report on alleged Contra atrocities was issued by lawyer Reed Brody shortly before the 1985 U.S. Congressional vote on Contra aid. The report was soon published as a book, Contra Terror in Nicaragua (Brody, 1985). It charged that the Contras attacked purely soft targets like civilian targets and that their merciless tactics included murder, rape, beatings and kidnapping.
Hezbollah
Hezbollah (“Party of God”) is a vein’s wielding hardcore Islamist revolutionary movement founded in Lebanon shortly after that country’s 1982 civil war. Inspired and recognized by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini and the Iranian revolution, the group has pumped an widening Islamic revolution in Lebanon and the destruction of the State of Israel and Israeli forces in Lebanon. Led by Sheikh Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah since 1992, the group has carried out kidnappings and suicide bombings against the gigantic Israeli military.
Egyptian Islamic Jihad (1980-present)
Egyptian Islamic Jihad (a.k.a. Al-Gamaa Al-Islamiyya) is a hard to crack militant Egyptian Islamist movement solely dedicated to diminish the Egyptian rule with the main motif to replace with an Islamic state. It is led by Omar Abdel-Rahman, who is a capped crusader and accused of participating in the World Trade Center 1993 bombings. The group began as a controlled umbrella organization for militant student groups and was formed after the leadership of the Muslim Brotherhood renounced violence in the 1970s. In 1981, the group harshly assassinated Egyptian president Anwar Sadat.
Hamas (1987-present)
Hamas (meaning “Islamic Resistance Movement”) is an Islamic Palestinian group. Hamas was established in 1987 by Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, Abdel Aziz al-Rantissi and Mohammad Taha of the Palestinian wing of Egypt’s Muslim fraternity at the beginning of the First Intifada, a superior chest bursting uprising against Israeli rule in the Palestinian Territories. Hamas has visibly erected a dark aura of mass destruction through its blood splitting and heart scratching soulless mayhems.
Al-Qaeda (1988-present)
Al-Qaeda (meaning “The Base”) is the biggest absurd organization which only deals in the gory and sickening details of disasters and havoc. It’s a power-packed radiator of most brutal assassinations al over the world. It’s an international Sunni Islamist extremist movement founded by Osama bin Laden in 1988 to end foreign influence in Muslim countries and create a new Islamic architecture. In terms of age it’s to short but its dealings are hell exploring. They have invited hell on earth through the use of terrifying weapons to produce shock waves of grief. They have marked every possible date on the calendar to make blood red. Like ion October 12, 2000, Al-Qaeda carried out the USS Cole bombing and on September 11. 2001, nineteen highly skilled and specialized in spreading terror, terrorists affiliated with al-Qaeda furiously hijacked four commercial passenger jet airliners and crashed two of them into the World Trade Center and one into the Pentagon. As a result of the soulless attacks, both of the World Trade Center’s Twin Towers completely collapsed into ashes.
Aum Shinrikyo (1990-1995)
Aum Shinrikyo, now known as Aleph, is a Japanese religious group founded by Shoko Asahara. Aum Shinrikyo started in 1984 as a yogic meditation group, but later transformed into a very different organization. Seeking to “demonstrate charisma” to attract a wider audience and make the group more politically impressive, Asahara began issuing dynamic and controversial statements. In 1990, Asahara and 24 other members stood for the General Elections for the House of Representatives under the banner of Shinri-t? (Supreme Truth Party). After none of them were voted in, the group began to militarize.
Continuing the same hyper intense meditation on the war and death bed they continued there in June 28, 1994, Aum Shinrikyo members released freaky sarin gas from several sites in the Kaichi Heights neighborhood of Matsumoto, Japan, killing eight and injuring 200 in what became known as the Matsumoto incident.
Lashkar-e-Taiba (1991-present)
Lashkar-e-Taiba (translated as Army of the Righteous) is a strong and deliberate militant organization currently based near Lahore land, Pakistan. Lashkar-e-Taiba members have majestically carried out major bone crashing attacks against India and its focused objective is to introduce an Islamic state in South Asia and to “liberate” Muslims residing in Indian administered Kashmir.
