MEETING • FFRW present Helle Dale, Senior Fellow for Public Diplomacy at The Heritage Foundation, to discuss "Terrorist Uses of the Internet: Radicalization, Organization and Propaganda." The first group to use the Internet effectively was Al Qaeda, but with the arrival of ISIS in 2014, the battle in cyberspace against terrorism has been taken to new levels.
