Hybridizace al-Ká'idy v severní Africe a její implikace pro EvropuVojenské umění

Bc. Martin Janků

Cílem článku je poukázat na problematiku tzv. hybridizace v případě organizace "Al-Ká'ida v islámském Maghrebu" (AQIM) s ohledem na možné bezpečnostní implikace pro Evropu. Proces vzájemného prolínání a působení více druhů nestátních aktérů využívajících násilí lze dle autora identifikovat jak v napojení na pašerácké kriminální skupiny v pásmu Sahelu, tak na základě obvyklého modu operandi při únosech, které se staly jedním z hlavních zdrojů finančních příjmů skupiny. Ačkoliv je hrozba útoku AQIM v Evropě v dohledné době minimální díky sérii úspěšných zákroků evropských bezpečnostních složek, konvergence se skupinami organizovaného zločinu může v dlouhodobém horizontu skupině výrazně dopomoci ke znovuobnovení evropské operační sítě své předchůdkyně GSPC.

Al Qai'da Hybridisation in North Africa and its Implication for Europe

The article is focused on issue of hybridisation of Al Qai'da in Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), in North Africa, and its implications for European countries. The process of hybridisation is being conceived as growing nexus and convergence between violent non-state actors, while these processes could be in this case identified mainly in issues of use of kidnappings and secondary also reported involvement of AQIM in regional smuggling, mainly drugs, activities through Sahel and Saharan region to Europe. Regarding GSPC background, AQIM could be in long term theoretically able to re-establish its financial and supporting networks in Europe via cooperation with organized crime, which were largely disrupted after major crackdowns by security forces between 2004-2007. Event though a direct Al Qai'da attack in Europe is-according to the author-excluded, the purpose of this article to draw our attention to an eventuality of rebirth of European operation network of AQIM operational predecessor, i.e. GSPC.
