Abstract : The networks that were active in sending “volunteers” for the anti-US jihad in Iraq from 2003 to 2007 might
have played a key role in organizing the major terrorist attacks that struck France in January and November
2015. This jihadi genealogy underlines a complex generational transmission between pre-Islamic State (IS) and
IS-inspired activists and cells.
