Researchers claim that brain scans show that social exclusion creates jihadists
“Far from needing to improve economic conditions, combat ideology, or medically treat extremists, focusing on alleviating interpersonal discrimination can keep those with extremist leanings on the non-violent and negotiable side of the fence,” said researcher Nafees Hamid.

Yet another convert to Islam somehow gets the idea that his new religion commands him to commit treason and mass murder.
