ISIS In America: Who Is The Average Islamic State Sympathizer?

More people in the U.S. were arrested for alleged connections to ISIS this year than in any previous year. A new report analyzes the 56 people who were detained this year, of 71 charged since March 2014, and the results paint a rough sketch of the Islamic State’s adherents inside the U.S. An ISIS sympathizer in America is most likely to be young, male and a citizen or permanent resident of the United States.
