1: Extremist or Terrorist - What is the Difference?

Radicalization predicated on political, religious, social, or single-issue extremism will continue to challenge American law enforcement capabilities. Inherent in understanding radicalization and attempting to defeat its violent goals is the requirement of knowing the difference between an extremist and the fully operational terrorist. For example, was Malcolm X, the radical preacher of the Nation of Islam? Was he an extremist, or an operational terrorist? (McVey, 2015)

1. Research and select from current events an example of each of the following: a radicalized homegrown extremist, a violent extremist, and a homegrown terrorist. Describe these examples and explain the definitional differences between them in full.

 2: The Enemy Within

The process of radicalization often begins with persons who are disaffected with their lives, lonely, frustrated, or angry with the politics of the American government. However, in the case of Major Nidal Malik Hasan, he was a board certified psychiatrist, with 15 years of military service. He was a religious person, with no known foreign travel. He was a member of two professional mental health associations, whose missions were to promote non-violent behavior. Without warning, he killed and wounded numerous unarmed soldiers at Fort Hood, Texas.

2. Discuss how the processes of radicalization can transform persons into extremists and terrorists. To what extent does the Internet alone contribute to the radicalization violent extremism?
