}} Radwan Nammous, also known by his nom de guerre, Abu Firas al-Suri is a senior official within the al-Qaeda affiliated al-Nusra Front. He serves as the groups media spokesperson. ==Early life== al-Suri was born in 1950 in the Syrian town of Madaya, near Damascus. He joined the Syrian military and attained the rank of lieutenant but was discharged due to his Islamist leanings in 1979.〔 He then joined the Muslim Brotherhood of Syria and was reportedly a military trainer in the Muslim Brotherhood's Fighting Vanguard group between 1979 and 1980. During this time, al-Suri fought against the regime of Hafez al-Assad during the Islamist uprising in Syria. Al Suri later traveled to Afghanistan, where he met Abdullah Azzam, a founding father of modern jihadism who was killed in the late 1980s, and Osama bin Laden. He then helped bin Laden and Pakistani jihadists establish Lashkar-e-Taiba, a terrorist organization that remains closely linked to al Qaeda to this day.〔 After the 9/11 attacks, al Suri helped al Qaeda families escape Afghanistan. And from 2003 to 2013 he was stationed in Yemen, where he stayed until the dispute between the al-Nusra Front and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant erupted.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Abu Firas al-Suri」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
