Amazon has pulled copies of the English-language propaganda magazine Dabiq, which belongs to ISIS. The author of the magazines was the al-Hayat Media Center, which is the terrorist group’s media arm. The magazines were published by CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, which is actually Amazon’s own self-publishing company. The company did not give further details to the BBC except that “This product is no longer available for sale.” The magazine was described on Amazon as “a periodical magazine focusing on issues of tawhid (unity), manhaj (truth-seeking), hijrah (migration), jihad (holy war), and jama'ah (community).”
