Beslan School Massacre, Al-Muhajiroun and Radicalization Roots

The 2004 Beslan school massacre in Russia is cited as the pivotal moment that opened eyes to the dangers of radical Islamic ideology. Robinson describes seeing local Muslims in his hometown justify the slaughter of children and celebrate the September 11 attacks with posters of the hijackers. This exposure to street-level jihad and the terrorist organization Al-Muhajiroun led to the realization that the state was failing to address internal threats.
