When the Soviets withdrew from Afghanistan in 1989, the organization dispersed but continued to oppose what its leaders considered corrupt Islamic regimes and foreign presence in Islamic lands- like the US in Iraq. It was based in Sudan for a short period in the early 1990s, the group eventually reestablished its headquarters in Afghanistan under the Taliban militia. It has merged with many other terrorist groups, like Egypt's Jihad, and has declared "holy war" on the US multiple times. ]]> 2017-11-17 20:14:40 UTC https://padlet.com/jowens201/5i0zgza2s5xj/wish/208290887 What is the ideology of ISIS? jowens201 https://padlet.com/jowens201/5i0zgza2s5xj/wish/208292388 Their ideology is to create the earliest days of Islam.
