Preferred term
Al Shabab
Definition
- According to the U.S. State Department, Somalia's Harakat al Shabab al Mujahideen (Arabic for “Movement of the Youth”), known most commonly as simply al Shabab (or al Shabaab), has become one of the most lethal terrorist groups in East Africa. At the close of the twentieth century, all of the elements were present for radicalism to flourish in Somalia. [Source: The SAGE Encyclopedia of Terrorism; Al Shabab]
