Sudden Jihad Syndrome

For a more detailed treatment, see Sudden Jihad Syndrome.

"Sudden Jihad Syndrome" is a term Pipes coined to describe Muslims that suddenly or unexpectedly turn against civilized, Western society and engage in acts of terror.[1] Pipes has argued that due to this alleged phenomenon all Islamists must be considered potential terrorists.[2]
