Muslimmatters. org mentioned a study produced by Fordham Law School’s Center on National Security (directed by Professor Karen Greenberg) which analyzes ISIS prosecutions in the United States. The study shows that 59% of all ISIS prosecutions in the US were determined to have involved informants or undercover agents (this, out of a paltry 101 cases in total).
