In this episode featuring Dr. Bruce Hoffman, we discuss the current status of the Islamic State, the foreign fighter phenomenon, Western states' response to the threat, the implications of a CBRN attack, and the prospects for a merger between AQ and IS. We discuss the evolution of terrorism as a phenomenon (hint: it's getting worse). We conclude by getting to know Dr. Hoffman a little better as he explains what piqued his interest in terrorism and shares a few stories behind the many mementos in his office. Bruce Hoffman is the author of Inside Terrorism (1998, 2006) and Anonymous Soldiers (2015).
