ISIS extremist group attacked Qaeda and its leader Ayman Al-Zawahri on the recent edition “Naba” newspaper issued on Thursday, saying that Qaeda adopts stray doctrine and corrupt leaders.
The extremist group said that Qaeda attempts to use their defeats in a number of cities to gain the allegiance of their people to establish their state drawn only in their imagination. ISIS also criticized the position adopted by Qaeda to support the constitutional amendments witnessed in Turkey, describing the Turkish constitution as pre-Islamic.
ISIS rebuked the Turkish government, saying that the Turkish President Recep Tayeb Erdogan turned to support the dictatorial regimes that ruled Egypt, Tunisia and Libya after the Arab uprisings, adding that Qaeda also adopted the same position towards these governments describing them as democratic governments.
The Extremist group blamed Qaeda for its position Libya’s Muslim Brotherhood (MB) regime, saying that they kept cordial relations with them but came under its sponsorship.
ISIS’ attack against Qaeda comes in the framework of the current conflict between the two extremist groups, as it came after the voice recording attributed to Qaeda’s leader Ayman Al-Zawahri who attacked ISIS leader Abu Baker Al Baghdadi describing him as liar. He said, “What ISIS claims over our support for Muslim Brotherhood or Egypt’s former President Mohamed Morsi is not correct. We have not described him as the hope of nation.”
Since then, ISIS resumed its attacks against Qaeda, as they issued a large number of statements against Qaeda and its leader Ayman Al-Zawahri, describing him and illegitimate leader of the group who steal the leadership after the killing of Osama Bin Laden.
