I have a legitimate question and would like a thoughtful reply.
First, I believe there are hundreds if not thousands of Mosques and Madrassa throughout the US that preach Islam and shariah.
Of this number, some are actively recruiting and radicalizing, primarily young Muslims.
The question I have is, why have there not been:
More successful attacks in the US ?
More unsuccessful attacks in the US ?
And given the numbers,
I’m interested to know where the “failed” converts are ?
Those young Muslims that started down the path to Jihad and backed out. Why haven’t we heard about the guy that says “ They tried to recruit me, but I got away” ?
There’s pretty obviously several reasons for why you’re not seeing more successful actions than you do. For example:
1. Underreporting. misreporting or simply displacement.
2. The war has used many, many years for laying groundwork. Ratcheting like communist cells.
