Description

Homegrown ISIS in America explores the unprecedented scale of American involvement in jihadist activity today. Drawing on first-hand interviews and detailed analysis of court cases, this book reveals how and why ISIS was able to radicalize and recruit a new generation of jihadist sympathizers in America.

The authors examine the experiences of former American Islamic State members and law enforcement officials who tracked them, shedding light on the social media presence and motivations of those involved. This timely study provides valuable insights into the threat posed by American ISIS supporters and the challenges faced by counter-terrorism efforts.
