I can't believe this has not had a larger number of viewers. Especially in our current times. This documentary explains so much more than the media covered. It explains most of the threat to our own security starts right here at home and not abroad. It also explains some of the key points where we are making major mistakes in our strategy against terrorism. Why did an Army Major go on a rampage on Fort Hood? Why did two brothers commit the Boston Marathon bombing? This should be required viewing in every High School and University. This is not a campaign to be won by body count.

A Must Watch - Sorry I had delayed watching it
Well-made doc, important topic
Highly watchable. Fascinating to hear about the path some Americans took towards Islamic radicalism, and the role of social media in that process.
The last few minutes of it presented bold suggestions that would probably be effective in dealing with these issues, but I'm not sure enough people in the current political climate will be ready to listen.
