Almost Half of Alleged Terrorists in US Unrelated to ISIS
A new study finds that almost half of the alleged terrorists charged in the United States were inspired by jihadist groups other than the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).
“While an unprecedented number of Americans have radicalized in support of [ISIS] in the last five years, sustained terrorism arrests unrelated to [ISIS] indicate that other terrorist organizations within the global jihadist movement continue to appeal to Americans,” the study from the George Washington University's Program on Extremism said.
