Аннотация The purpose of this paper is to provide a counter-ideology framework as an alternative strategy to defeat terrorists, as military force has never been proven enough to defeat any terrorist group. The analysis relies on secondary information for systematic examination and descriptive analysis resulting in the use of Counter Terrorism Strategy (CTS) model to evaluate key assumption that acts of terrorist recruits are connected to deep politics and ideology. The paper therefore posits that the use of genuine religious messages to isolate terrorists from communities and ultimately make them short of new recruits should be considered. This finding has critical implications for institutions, governments, intelligence communities, regulators and policymakers, that the military crackdown would not yield the needed result, hence the need for a counter-ideology as a strategy to fight terrorism, particularly in the Sahel region
