This article describes the genesis and development of Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, or AQIM. It discusses AQIM's strategic objectives, leadership, tactical operations, and financing as well as the destabilizing effects of Libya's new civil war in the region. After discussing these issues, various counterterrorism programs in Mali will be examined because they may provide a possible basis for implementing transnational counterterrorism approaches within the region
