ISIS in America

[Raising Heel]

Fascinating series on ISIS' recruitment techniques in the United States. I imagine ISIS uses similar tactics in Europe and other parts of the world as well. The series talks about how ISIS identifies and connects with disillusioned youths, and how savvy they are in their use of social media. It also addresses the American efforts to combat radicalization, from law enforcement to the Muslim community to families themselves. Worth a read if you have the time. Part 6 is especially interesting to get the perspective of Muslims living in the U.S.

Part 1: How doomsday Muslim cult is turning kids against parents
Part 2: One Virginia teen's journey from ISIS rock star to incarceration
Part 3: Eight faces of ISIS in America
Part 4: FBI tactics to unearth ISIS recruits: effective or entrapment?
Part 5: What draws women to ISIS
Part 6: To turn tables on ISIS at home, start asking unsettling questions, expert says
Part 7: How to save kids from ISIS? Start with mom

They're already here and with our porous borders, more are arriving every day. It's just a matter of time before what is occurring in Europe starts occurring here. It's one of the main reasons that I support a zero immigration policy.

Same thing every church in America does, right Chickie?

ummmm, no, not EVERY church, and as I said before Christians or even non-Christians that think with that same MINDSET, don't act on it but still have that hatefulness in their heart...you know, kind of like the Bible saying if you look at a woman with lust in your eyes/heart, you are still and adulterer......????? I see being hateful and wishing death on others, wanting to blow up others no matter if innocent lives are lost, and WANTING to also cut others heads off if only you could get away with it as being the same as the ones who actually do it.... same heart behind it, just one has more balls than the other, I guess. proceed to yelling at me again..... sighhhhh

The series actually focuses on ISIS' efforts to recruit Americans to travel to the middle east and become part of their caliphate.

And Lord knows there are already plenty of homegrown malcontents who are quite susceptible to recruitment, even if more radicals from the middle east weren't coming over every day. And as these articles show, they are indeed being recruited to Islamic extremism right here in our own country.
