In this episode of Jihadi Recollections Jesse Morton sits with Dr. Alexander Meleagrou-Hitchens (@amhitchens), the Research Director of the Program on Extremism at The George Washington University. Dr. Meleagrou-Hitchens recently published "Incitement: Anwar al-Awlaki’s Western Jihad," a book on the strategy and tactics of the man who aimed to make violent Islamism “as American as apple pie and as British as afternoon tea.” The book is a must-read for those interested in the history of English-language jihadist propaganda, as well as for those seeking to understand the threat posed by the Salafi jihadist movement going forward and how to counter it.
