TAMPA — “Jihadist crisis line, how can I help you today,” says Mike Smith, a Navy SEAL with Joint Special Operations Command who volunteers with Central Command’s Jihadist Crisis Line.

 

 

 

Resources can take a variety of forms: Smith sometimes refers callers for further psychological treatment, or helps them work through their personal issues. Other times, he uses their call metadata to pinpoint their GPS coordinates and passes that off to forward-deployed JSOC personnel.

 

“In my work, I feel confident when I pass off the exact location of a jihadist caller, I know my JSOC guys are going to bring that guy back down off the edge and get him to the safety of Guantanamo,” Smith said.
