Abstract
- The article reports on a detailed examination undertaken by British Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) and Home Office to determine the security risks posed by the Muslim population in Great Britain. The study drew on the assessments of MI5 domestic intelligence agency in Great Britain. The findings revealed that jihadi groups were heavily recruiting educated British Muslims. Also cited were Muslims' social marginalization and a perceived anti-Islamic bias of British foreign and security policies as key contributors to the inclination of some toward extremism and violence. The primary goals of the FCO/Home Office paper are to isolate extremists within the Muslim community and to provide support to moderates.
