Al-Qaeda's ideology, often referred to as "jihadism," is marked by a willingness to kill "apostate" —and Shiite—Muslims and an emphasis on jihad.

Neo-Pharaoh Abu Jihad appeared to promptly agree with me, except that he considered the rhetorical tone of my articles vis-à-vis the depiction of his “untouchable” idol, President Nkrumah, to have been rather caustic, to speak much less of the outright mordant.
I asked Neo-Pharaoh Abu Jihad whether, indeed, Dr. Danquah had been found, physically, among the purported anti-CPP co-conspirators and been promptly arrested together with the other group members.
I, nonetheless, promised Neo-Pharaoh Abu Jihad utmost balance and objectivity in my, admittedly, quite daunting task of infusing a historiographical balance into the contemporary Ghanaian curricular status-quo.
