N2  - We describe an innovative approach to social media analysis, combining corpus linguists and
statistical methods to measure the resonance of Daesh's propaganda to a sample population
(Eqypt). The findings from this research effort demonstrate that: (1) Daesh's messaging is
measurable and distinct from other Salafi groups, such as the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood;
(2) while Daesh’s messaging generally do not resonate with Egyptians, its uptake increased
in Upper Egypt and the Sinai regions during 2014; and (3) this method can be applied more
broadly to measure the spread of violent extremist messaging across regional populations
over time.
