“The International Media Front of Islam (IMFI) is bin Laden’s cyber-presence. Constantly mutating, it is always delivered in a different form and at the end of a series of links from and through other sites. Over 200 sites have links to IMFI sites. In September 2005, with typical audacity, the IMFI launched its own news program. ‘Voice of the Caliphate’ has regularly appeared since then, bringing viewers on the site up to date on the Iraqi insurgency and al Qaeda’s ideology, and even advertising for volunteers to contribute to this latest broadcasting endeavor.” [The 15th of the month used for date sorting purposes only.]
