The new Global Terrorism Index is out, and packed with findings that should have made headlines:
In the West, killings in terror attacks spiked by 280% last year
The U.S. saw its highest level since 2019.
Youth radicalization is skyrocketing. Children and adolescents accounted for 42% of terror probes in Europe and North America, up threefold from 2021.
Recruitment and indoctrination have been documented in kids as young as 8.
All that just scratches the surface.
In the latest episode, I tell you what this means for the Iran war, the security of modern democracies, and media failure. Also, why this report found that “a radicalization process that historically took months or even years can now take place within weeks or even days.”
Get numbers and details ahead. Plus, a term in this report that may be tough for some people to process, but must be confronted for the sake of humanity: “Islamo-leftism.”
