E114: Ex Special Forces Reveals: The Truth About Islamist Radicalisation | Mansur Ashkar

In this episode, we sit down with a former Special Forces operator to unpack why so much of our public conversation around Islamist radicalisation misses the mark. Drawing on real-world experience rather than theory or headlines, he explains how radicalisation actually happens, where Western policy and media narratives go wrong, and what we keep overlooking. It is a sober, nuanced conversation about security, ideology, and the uncomfortable truths we rarely slow down enough to confront.
