The opening as it read in 2005
Islamic Jihad ( Arabic: Harakat al-Jihad al-Islami ) is a militant Islamist group based in the Syrian capital , Damascus . It was one of the earliest Islamist militant groups in the Middle East . It first came to prominence with the April 1983 U.S. Embassy bombing in Beirut . Several groups in other Arab countries also go by the name Islamic Jihad , notably the Egyptian Islamic Jihad and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad . In the western world, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad is the organization usually meant by the term Islamic Jihad , due to the widespread media coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict . The name is also occasionally used by the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah . Islamic Jihad has used teenagers as suicide bombers . On 29 March , 2004 , 16-year-old Tamer Havira in Rifidia, an Arab suburb of Nablus was apprehended by Israeli security forces as he prepared to carry out a suicide attack. Like Hamas , Islamic Jihad and its top leaders have been frequent targets of assassination .1
