New Orleans Attack Highlights Islamic State's Franchising Tactics

Credited from: FOREIGNPOLICY

  • On New Year’s Day, U.S. Army veteran Shamsud-Din Jabbar killed 14 and injured many in the French Quarter, using a vehicle marked with an Islamic State flag.
  • The FBI is analyzing Jabbar's electronics to uncover links to Islamic State propaganda and potential operatives.
  • This incident reflects a trend where most Islamic State-related attacks are inspired by the group rather than directed, showcasing its effective franchise model.
  • Vehicle ramming has become a favored tactic for its accessibility and difficulty in detection, with past examples including attacks in Barcelona, Berlin, and London.
  • As the Islamic State continues to adapt, experts emphasize a comprehensive response that addresses both high-tech and low-tech threats while tackling the underlying issues leading to radicalization.
