Abstract
In an October 2010 address, FBI director Robert Mueller identified homegrown terrorism as a growing concern to the US national security community (Mueller 2010). Mueller said the threat from homegrown extremists, meaning those born or residing within the United States and targeting US interests, is challenging given its “quickly evolving” nature and the lack of a “typical” homegrown terrorist profile (Mueller 2010).
