North America has long served as a fundraising and logistics hub for dozens of global terrorist organizations as well as an occasional target for attacks. There is no single path to radicalization, and there is no guaranteed method for deradicalization.
North America should develop an international counter radicalization strategy that is complemented with targeted policies and programs that deter and prevent future radicalization as well as a formal deradicalization program. These efforts should be supported by culturally-sensitive community policing and voluntary self-policing within diaspora communities.
