The Come Join ISIS Psyop! (11-7-14) ~ https://youtube/watch?v=X2jOo7z2Fws More Brits are joining Islamic State because of “peer pressure” rather than as a result of the jihadist group’s propaganda videos, a new study suggests. The study, produced by the International Centre for the Study of Radicalisation and Political Science (ICSR) and due to be published later this month, said the role of social media in driving new recruits to Syria and Iraq was “often exaggerated.” Rather, local networks, friendships and social circles were the “decisive influence” in radicalizing young men and women to join Islamic State (also known as ISIS, or ISIL). “While online recruitment plays a role, people go because they know people who are in Syria. It’s all about networks in the real world. That’s why you get clusters in Portsmouth or Brighton or Cardiff,” ICSR director Peter Neumann told The Guardian.
