Radicalization: Behind Bars and Beyond Borders

Description

Abstract:
The article discusses Islamic radicalization in the U.S. The authors state that Islamic radicalization and recruitment of residents and citizens from Western countries has showed itself in a series of terrorist attacks and bombings in Madrid, and London, and operations uncovered in Canada. They say that they have seen the rise of a leaderless movement, marked by self-enlistment and taking its inspiration from al-Qaeda classic to participate in the global Salafi jihad.
