"Meanwhile, Hans-Jakob Schindler of the Counter Extremism Project explained that existing EU legal frameworks are inadequate for addressing the growing problem. Schindler described Samidoun as a network that "allow[s] for the cooperation between various violent extremist milieus." He pointed to Samidoun's involvement in large-scale demonstrations after Hamas' October 7, 2023, attack on Israel, where "a significant number of criminal acts were committed, including, at times, serious violence against the police." He warned that the group plays a role in mobilizing both Islamist and left-wing extremist circles, contributing to the glorification of violence and antisemitism."
