  1. Recent U.S. threat reports say jihadist-inspired attacks remain a persistent risk (including lone actors inspired by ISIS/Al Qaeda) are troubling, but overall plot numbers in the U.S. have been low in the post-caliphate period

    The most recent public numbers found from U.S. agencies and research institutions for jihadist / homegrown violent extremist (HVE) plots, arrests, and threat-cases. The data is imperfect (different definitions, delays, disclosability), but it gives a sense of scale and trends.

    Here are the most recent public numbers found from U.S. agencies and research institutions for jihadist / homegrown violent extremist (HVE) plots, arrests, and threat-cases. The data is imperfect (different definitions, delays, disclosability), but it gives a sense of scale and trends.

    Total jihadist attacks & plots in U.S. since 1994 = 140

    Jihadist attacks + disrupted plots FROM 2020 TO 2025 = 8 attacks + 10 disrupted plots

    Number of U.S. cases of “foreign jihadist networks and homegrown violent extremists” identified= 50

    Homegrown Violent Extremist (HVE) investigations ( Per FBI ) =1000
    The FBI says about 5,000 terrorism cases overall; about 1,000 of them are HVE cases. These are cases under investigation, not just arrests or convictions.

    These figures don’t paint a picture of an imminent threat but we should be aware that these terrorists never give up and take the offensive in uprooting them.

    1. It seems the primary risk, Fred, is in limited jurisdictions where they might have sufficient numbers to implement Sharia law (see Dearborn or Minneapolis) or elect a charismatic candidate (see Mamdani).
