SAR advisor Steve Martin told us about some interesting news programs. Steve wrote to us: 

Did you see the 60 Minutes program last Sunday July 2nd? It’s about a young man who was recruited into ISIS, and a man who does preventive education. Here’s the link to the program on their website. It’s the one called “In God’s name.” http://www.cbsnews.com/videos/in-gods-name-2

There’s also more in the 60 Minutes Overtime episode called “Somali Americans: Searching for identity, finding ISIS.” http://www.cbsnews.com/60-minutes/overtime

Another program of interest was aired on a daily NPR program called Fresh Air. The July 6 episode interviewed a Muslim who had bipolar disorder and was told that this was his fault and he had this problem because he was not a good Muslim: http://www.npr.org/programs/fresh-air

Related to this last item is a new and interest website on spiritual abuse in Islam: http://inshaykhsclothing.com/ This site includes an introduction to spiritual abuse, accounts of spiritual abuse, a section on narcissism, and a blog.
