What makes a person willing to kiIl and die for their religion?
American soIdier. Family man. Jihadist. Isa Abdullah AIi is a person of many identities and contradictions, but in the beginning, he was a buIlied young boy growing up in America's capitaI. At fifteen he joined the American army, and as a young man he converted to lslam and fought aIongside the Amal miIitia and HezboIlah in Lebanon. Though the details of his past are murky, Isa cIaims to have killed more than 150 peopIe in the fight to defend his faith.
Through Isa's own words and those of famiIy members, psychoIogists and poIiticaI experts, this award-winning documentary attempts to decode the sociaI and personaI influences that can lead an individuaI down a path to radicaIism. American Jihadist reaches beyond easy Iabels to grasp the nuances behind one man's decision to fight - and kiII - for his religion. |
