Why global jihad is losing – Bobby Ghosh

Throughout the history of Islam, says journalist Bobby Ghosh, there have been two sides to jihad: one, internal, a personal struggle to be better, the other external. A small minority (most recently Osama bin Laden) has appropriated the second, using it as an excuse for deadly global violence against “the West.” Ghosh suggests that, now that bin Laden’s worldwide organization has fragmented, it’s time to reclaim the word.
