A new Islamic State propaganda campaign is calling on jihadists in the United States and Europe to attack Christians in the US and Europe. Radicalized jihadists are encouraged to study substantial targets and strike without consulting anyone.
The greatest threat to churches is the lone wolf actor who is self-radicalized and acts independently. These individuals are difficult to detect and use easily accessible methods of attack such as firearms and vehicles.
The Blue Campaign is the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's initiative to combat human trafficking. The toolkit aims to raise public awareness and provides resources for religious communities to engage congregants in the fight against human trafficking.
