Della sua precedente esistenza, prima che il fuoco sacro della fede lo bruciasse, si sa poco. La cerchia familiare lo descrive come un giovane come tanti altri: la passione per la musica, un giro di amici, lo sport. Poco interesse per la religione.
Eppure Ibrahim Hassan Al Asiri, 28 anni, saudita residente in Yemen da tre anni, è uno dei più pericolosi coordinatori della rete terroristica Al Qa’ida, esperto di esplosivi e veleni secondo i servizi di intelligence americani, che lo tengono d’occhio da anni. Sarebbe lui all’origine di numerosi tentativi di attentato last year.
The mystery still lingers on this young man, "lost sight" in the first phase of the fugitive, when his "vocation terrorist" is coming to define.
Interviewed by the Algerian newspaper Al Watan, in early 2009 describing his mother so he and his brother, "Abdullah Ibrahim and his brother were like all teenagers, not very religious."
And even their friends were. Then, faith and new acquaintances seem to go hand in hand, without having to understand what came before. Perhaps the trauma of the death of his brother Ali, in a car accident in 2000, has contributed to the turnaround. And here appear in the home video of mujaheddin (Jihad militants) in Afghanistan, while the two boys are increasingly distant and cold with his parents and sisters.
Ibrahim is not very prudent, it is noted on the border with Iraq in 2003, while trying to enter the country to join the Islamist guerrillas against American troops. Experience in a Saudi prison, nine months, the marks for ever and reinforces in his convictions.
The family meanwhile moved from Mecca to Riyadh. In 2007, Abdullah Ibrahim and decide to leave and move to Medina, leaving his father, former military, with uncertainty over their fate. Only years later, the parents will see their pictures in the local media and understand that when they called them the two 'Abroad', were learning how to manufacture bombs and sophisticated mix poisons.
Serving the cell of Al Qaeda as "promising" the entire Middle East, Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, known as Aqpa and hidden like a cancer in the heart of Yemen.
Ibrahim now heads the list of the 85 most dangerous people to the Saudi authorities, a climb, "triumphal" that made him one of the researchers in Yemen and the world.
of him supremely blaster, one begins to understand that has a coordinating role, which does not run any unnecessary risk, perhaps convinced that he is destined for great companies, the brother Abdullah is already died, he sent him to die in a suicide-bombing in August 2009, at age 23. The target, a number of Saudi intelligence Mohammed Ben Nayef Ben Abdel Aziz, escapes, but Abdullah, packed with explosives, there is no way out.
The sacrifice of his brother must have pushed up the prices of Ibrahim in the organization: Aqpa chose him to participate in the attack on the Amsterdam-Detroit flight of December 25, 2009. The explosive that brought him the 23 year-old Nigerian Umar Abdul Mutallab, bore his signature. But even this attempt did not go through.
likely now young Al Asir (nom de guerre Abu Saleh), burning with the desire di dimostrare capacità e coraggio, deve averne abbastanza di aspettare di fare il botto. Letteralmente. Di lui, temono inquirenti e servizi americani, si tornerà presto a parlare. Così come del religioso americano-yemenita Anwar Al Awlaki, colui che ha fornito ai fratelli Al Asiri e alle nuove leve del terrorismo islamista un supporto religioso.
