Il dibattito sulla cittadinanza per diritto di nascita spesso si concentra su chi dovrebbe essere considerato americano semplicemente perché è nato sul suolo americano.

Sentimenti di solitudine, isolamento, lotte di identità e desiderio di appartenenza spesso creano le condizioni sfruttate dai reclutatori estremisti. Una volta che gli individui diventano socialmente connessi al gruppo, l’ideologia estremista viene gradualmente introdotta e rafforzata.
