Nabbing Terrorists From Your Basement
I've been an admirer of Shannen Rossmiller's basement counter-jihad for awhile now. I did not know she was also involved in the Mohammed Radwan Obeid, which, long-time readers will recall, The Jawa Report had a minor hand in as well.

I've been an admirer of Shannen Rossmiller's basement counter-jihad for awhile now. I did not know she was also involved in the Mohammed Radwan Obeid, which, long-time readers will recall, The Jawa Report had a minor hand in as well.So, is it possible to fight the counter-jihad from your basement in your free time? Yes, it is. And what Shannen doesn't mention in her article is that you don't even have to speak Arabic to do it. In fact, while the preferred language of terrorists is still Arabic, English is a close second.
Here is the money quote, and today's food for thought:
Jarret Brachman, director of research for the Combating Terrorism Center at the United States Military Academy, points out, "It is the strategic—not operational—objectives of the jihadi movement's use of technology that engenders the most enduring and lethal threat to the United States over the long term." He argues, "If Western governments made reading the online statements posted by Al-Qaeda ideologues a priority, they would better realize how the jihadi movement is not simply using technological tools to recruit new members, receive donations, and plan attacks. In actuality, Al-Qaeda's use of the Internet and other new technologies has also enabled it to radicalize and empower armies of new recruits by shaping their general worldview."Read the rest.
