“According to experts, the Norwegian right-wing terrorist Anders Behring Breivik cannot be classified as mentally ill. In a new report, two experts stated, according to the NTB news agency, that the 45-year-old is neither considered ill nor psychotic or mentally ill... Terrorism expert Hans-Jakob Schindler is critical of the discussion about gun-free zones or stricter laws. For him, radicalization on the Internet must be stopped”

"“It could have taken quite awhile to repair,” explained Joshua Fisher-Birch, a researcher with the Counter Extremism Project. “This has been promoted by different groups and sort of sub-movements within the accelerationists online environment and they’ve put out manuals and they’ve put out videos that encourage attacks on infrastructure.”"

"“In addition to strongly supporting proposed mass deportations, some extreme right groups are hoping that likely cuts to federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies and changing priorities will mean that attention will no longer be focused on them,” said Joshua Fisher-Birch, a terrorism analyst at the Counter Extremism Project.

“They are anticipating having breathing room and some are hopeful about the future.”"

"“The extreme right is focusing on civil war and collapse narratives because, in the context of online propaganda, it signals their commitment to accelerationist or other extremist ideologies that are opposed to the electoral process,” said Joshua Fisher-Birch, an expert on the far right at the Counter Extremism Project. 
“They are hoping that if Harris wins, it will lead to further distrust in the electoral system and government institutions, which could lead to the growth of anti-government and white supremacist groups and movements.”

Not unlike the recent past, Fisher-Birch said the election of “Harris, a woman of color” would be used by extremists to “increase recruitment, similar to what happened after President Obama was elected in 2008”."

“... Aleksandar Ritzman, a researcher at the international organization Counter-Extremism Project and an advisor to the Radicalization Awareness Network at the European Commission, said that "he has never seen any network in right-wing extremism spread so quickly." He says AC is a "sophisticated operation" and warned that if the movement is "allowed to continue to operate and multiply, the likelihood of targeted political violence will increase." He said that its goal is to "create a kind of paramilitary that hides behind the image of a sports club, while actually preparing for organized violence." "When the violence starts, members and groups will not subsequently publish a manifesto," he said. "This is different from the other kind of extreme right-wing terrorism, where manifestos with all sorts of explanations and theories are published after an attack."” 

“Reviving England’s warrior culture” by posing as a sports club. That is what a far-right group linked to a violent white supremacist collective is doing, which has been recruiting young people to achieve that goal, according to a BBC investigation. […] Alexander Ritzmann, a researcher at the international organisation The Counter Extremism Project and an advisor to the European Commission's Radicalisation Awareness Network, says he has “never seen a far-right network grow so fast”. He described Active Club as a “sophisticated operation” and warned that if it was allowed to “continue to operate and multiply, the likelihood of targeted political violence would increase.” He added that his aim was to “build a kind of militia hidden behind the image of a sports club, but which in reality is preparing for organised violence.”

CEP Senior Advisor Ian Acheson quoted: "Ian Acheson, who reviewed the threat of Islamist extremism in prisons in 2016, cautioned against a move towards viewing the many hundreds who were convicted of criminal offences during the riots as a single group susceptible to far-right ideas, a narrative that could be welcomed by extremists."

“Berlin – The triangle on the wall of a house glows blood red. The message: Anyone who lives here is a potential target of the terrorist organization Hamas . The symbol is appearing more and more often in Germany, for example several times in June at the Humboldt University in Berlin. […] Israel has been at war since October 7 and the Hamas attack . And since then, anti-Semitic acts of violence have been on the rise in this country. Not only Jews, but "also people who are committed to protecting Jewish life are in danger," explains Alexander Ritzmann in an interview with IPPEN.MEDIA . He is a consultant at the Counter Extremism Project (CEP) in Berlin and has now published a guide for security authorities, among others. This guide is intended to help identify key figures in anti-Semitic movements. Because behind anti-Semitism lies a targeted agenda in which organized crime (OC) is also involved, says Ritzmann.”

"Alexander Ritzmann, Senior Advisor at the Counter Extremism Project, cautions that Active Clubs are carefully presenting themselves as 'just another right-wing sports club' to evade detection by authorities."
