Body

CEP Strategic Advisor Liam Duffy gave a presentation for the "Jihadism in the West" workshop at the World Summit on Counter-Terrorism: "It’s right that we focus on individuals and attacks, but I think we only focus on individuals and attacks to the exclusion of almost everything else.

People with British passports, if you fly into Israel, it is easy. Fly into Israel and do whatever you can. If you die, you are up in paradise. How do you fight a Jew? You kill a Jew. In the case of Hindus, by bombing their businesses.
