Summer’s been pretty busy, so I am a bit late on updating things.<\/p>\n

First, I had a blog post <\/a>as part of the Religious Freedom Institute’s Cornerstone Blog series on religious freedom and counterterrorism. I drew from my book <\/a>to discuss how differing levels of religious freedom affected counterterrorism, arguing there are some trade-offs in the short-term but in the long-term promoting religious freedom will help undermine terrorism. Two other experts in this subject also weighed in, so check out their posts too.<\/p>\n
