I think that your article points out the ability of Jihadist recruiters to be like chameleons changing as they find the need. Jihad is very adaptable as a word so therefore it can be fit to many beliefs of what it means and can take on new or different meanings as the need may be. A struggle can mean within, without, for something, and/or against something. It is illusive and be a call to an individual or a call to a group or to a nation.
It might be why there is much conflict within the world of jihad. It means different things to different people so when there is a need for group action it can often lead to the need for total control over peoples lives to become cohesive.
