The MEMRI Global Jihad News (GJN) website, launched in January 2011, covers timely news and developments on global jihad and terrorism affairs, and provides regularly updated information about individuals, groups, and countries involved in jihadist activities. The GJN also follows chatter about potential terrorist threats to the U.S. and the West.
As a GJN subscriber, you will have access to information that you will find nowhere else – and you will read it before the mainstream media reports it, if it reports it. To visit the GJN website, click here.
The Global Jihad News website is a supplement to MEMRI's Jihad & Terrorism Threat Monitor (JTTM) project, which translates and analyzes material from sources monitored around the clock – among them the 100 most important Islamist websites and blogs.*
An annual subscription to the GJN costs $360. But now, for a limited time only, save $100 on a full year's subscription. Subscribe for ONLY $260, by visiting the MEMRI E-Store and entering the code Spring_2012.
