Gauging the Jihadist Movement 20 Years After 9/11

“While much attention has been paid of late to homegrown far-right and far-left extremists, jihadist terrorism has not disappeared—it merely evolved. So, as the world marks the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, it behooves security professionals to take stock of the jihadist movement today, forecast where the movement is headed, and consider the implications of ongoing terrorist activity.”

TSG’s Scott Stewart latest article for Security Management details the last 20 years of the jihadist movement since 9/11 and how al Qaeda has branched, evolved, adapted, and survived. While the Islamic State may not have the resources it once did, the threat jihadists pose are still significant to particular areas. However, the world must remain vigilant.
