In a deep dive into global terrorism, Charles Lister, a Middle East Institute expert on ISIS, and Ryan O’Farrell, a senior analyst at the Bridgeway Foundation focused on ISIS in Africa, unpack the group's alarming resurgence. They discuss the shift in ISIS tactics, rising attacks, and the dire situation in Syrian detainee camps. The conversation also highlights ISIS’s expanding influence in Africa and the challenges faced by local populations. With complex insurgent dynamics and dwindling Western support, there's a pressing need for renewed international attention.

Guests Tara Candland and Ryan O'Farrell discuss Bridgeway's report on the funding behind the Islamic State's Central Africa Province, exploring the ADF's origins, the Bashir network, uncovering a safe house in Las Vegas, the ADF's financial impact and expansion, strategies to combat extremism, and the importance of de-radicalization.
