The Father, the Son and the Jihad (Video)




The Ayachis, a French-Syrian Muslim family, trade their peaceful lives in Europe for revolution in Syria.



This is the unique story of the Ayachis, a French-Syrian Muslim family who trade their peaceful lives in Europe for revolution in Syria. They are no ordinary "jihadists". Their path and ideas couldn't be further from the cliches with which they are associated.
This family, headed by a Syrian father, was hailed as a model of Muslim integration in France in the 1980s, notably in a televised documentary. The father, exiled to France in the 1970s, is a descendant of an old and prestigious family of the Syrian Sunni aristocracy.
The first of this two-part documentary follows the story of the son who was a brilliant student at Aix-Marseille University in Provence and at university in Brussels and who established a small computer business. He then became a famous strongman in Syria's fight against Bashar al-As
