Description
Summary:With their stronghold of Mosul under fierce attack and Raqqa next in the frame, IS has intensified its global propaganda offensive, calling for more lone jihadis to slaughter civilians. IS in Syria now directs attacks, giving these lone wolves targets and instructions via encrypted apps like Telegram and WhatsApp, leaving intelligence agencies in the dark. Reporter Peter Taylor investigates the escalation of this global phenomenon. He travels to the US to talk to the Deputy Director of the FBI and goes on patrol with the NYPD. He asks what the UK government can do to prevent radicalisation of young people and talks to Britain’s most senior anti-terror police officer about what authorities are doing to protect the public in the face of this growing threat.
