Dave Brown as they revisit their policy roundtable 2019 article, “Retrospect and Prospect: On Endless War,” and continue their discussion and analysis of not only how American thinking and counter-terrorism efforts have evolved, but that the simmering threats of Al-Qa'ida and the Islamic State still deserve continued monitoring.

Where to next in the battle against Islamic State? One theory is it will form a "virtual caliphate" - uniting in cyberspace, until it can reclaim physical territory.
