The Spread of Homegrown Terror Are British Muslims really a threat? By Patrick Basham The recent homegrown plot in Britain to blow up transatlantic flights will intensify the fear that the country’s 1.6 million Muslims are rejecting political tolerance and free speech for a violent, radicalized version of Islam.
