Author and public intellectual Ayaan Hirsi Ali is warning about the threat that Islamist activist organizations pose to the U.S. and the broader Western world.

Speaking at National Review Institute’s Ideas Summit on Thursday, Ali pushed back on the popular “lone wolf” narrative used to explain recent acts of Islamist terror, like that perpetrated on Bourbon Street in New Orleans earlier this year, arguing instead that terrorism is one tactic used by a global Islamist network that is pursuing a broader, unrecognized strategy.
