U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder announced an initiative Monday aimed at stopping American extremists from joining terrorist groups like the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. Holder said pilot programs will take place in cities across the U.S. and will bring together community representatives, religious leaders, public safety officials and Justice Department officials. Together, Holder said those groups will come up with local strategies, raise awareness and come up with best practices to counter violent extremism.
