In This Issue: Battlefield In The Mind
Following the spike in terrorism activity and related convictions over the past two decades, a new national security challenge is rapidly approaching: the release of dozens of terrorists from prisons around the world. Sentencing those involved in extremist activity is notoriously challenging.

This means that those convicted in the years following 9/11 are approaching their release date.
