headlines with their dramatic rise to power in Iraq. It would be
easy now to think it is a thing of the past. But in 2024 the group
is having a resurgence in Syria, has a presence across Africa, and
has morphed into a worldwide operation. With multiple wars
and a new phase of global disorder upon us, has the West forgotten
about countering the threat of ISIS? Emma Beals assesses the state
of ISIS worldwide and the foreign policy response to its continued
threat with Charles Lister, director of the Syria and Countering
Terrorism & Extremism programs at the Middle East Institute,
and discusses their presence in Africa with Ryan O’Farrell, senior
analyst at the Bridgeway Foundation and the co-author of The
Islamic State in Africa: The Emergence, Evolution, and Future of
the Next Jihadist Battlefront. This episode of This Is Not A Drill
