ADL’s Terrorism Update Looks At Homegrown Terror & Online Recruitment

The April edi­tion of Ter­ror­ism Update, ADL’s newslet­ter pro­vid­ing news and analy­sis on inter­na­tional ter­ror­ist orga­ni­za­tions and their fol­low­ers in the U.S., is now available.

The fea­ture arti­cle explores how online terrorist propaganda is radicalizing a new generation of homegrown Islamic extremists – tragically underscored by last year’s Boston Marathon bombing – and provides an look back at related incidents and arrests in 2013.

The newsletter includes a pro­file on the Caucasus Emirates, a separatist Islamic extremist group in the Russian Federation that came into the spotlight with its threats against the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics.

This edi­tion also includes infor­ma­tion on a recent terror-related arrest in California, a new Afghani English-language terrorist magazine, efforts by Hezbollah to attract youth and exploit technology, the continued concern over Americans fighting in Syria and more.
