"How to Survive in the West--A Mujahid Guide"

PJ Media discusses a recently released ISIS manual for jihadists living in the West, noting that the booklet "urges followers to train with Nerf guns and watch Bourne films as part of their under-the-radar preparation for terrorist attacks." While this may be laughable, some of the recommendations are not. The article goes on:
They’re told to alter their first name — “Al instead of Ali, or a neutral name like Adam” — or make up an alias, as jihadists in the Islamic State “are not allowed to tell their real name to anyone in case their friends are captured and interrogated and reveal the real name of the brothers to the tyrants.” Plus, they argue, an alias with a non-Muslim name would come in handy if they want to get an “important position” such as work in a power plant.

Then comes the question of cold, hard cash: “Before any real Jihad can be fought, Muslims require money.” Conveniently, “in cases of necessity and for survival, Muslims are permitted to get money from ways which are not normally allowed.”

“If you are an expert in credit card fraud, paypal/ebay scams, Phishing, hacking, or you know the secrets of a big company, then take advantage of your skills,” the book advises, emphasizing the crimes in bold. “If you can claim extra benefits from a government, then do so. If you can avoid paying taxes, then do so.” Taking out a loan you’ll never repay and using the money to immigrate to the Islamic State is encouraged, but if you get caught doing this or other scams don’t say you were raising dough for jihad, the guide cautions.
For those interested in what ISIS thinks a budding terrorist should know, the booklet--"How to Survive in the West--A Mujahid Guide"--can be downloaded via the Black Flags Series website.

Update: The Black Flags website is down. But a copy is currently available here.
