- This paper traces and assesses al-Qa’ida’’s efforts to launch an insurgency in Saudi Arabia from the mid-1990s until today. It examines the background of Usama bin Ladin’s 1996 declaration of jihad, al-Qa’ida’s activities in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from 1996 to 2002, and the causes and evolution of the campaign waged by the group “al-Qa’ida on the Arabian Peninsula” (AQAP) from 2003 to 2006.
