Merkur: Terror expert on Mannheim attack: “Like something from an IS manual”
"Munich – For days, the country was worried about Rouven Laur – but the police officer did not survive the knife attack in Mannheim. It is now known that Sulaiman A.'s attack was motivated by Islamism. Shortly before the European Football Championship, the incident is fuelling fears of further attacks. Hans-Jakob Schindler, former UN terrorism expert and director of the Counter Extremism Project (CEP), assesses the terror threat in an interview."

Enduring Music: Compositions from the Holocaust
Marking International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the Counter Extremism Project's ARCHER at House 88 presents a landmark concert of music composed in ghettos and death camps, performed in defiance of resurgent antisemitism. Curated with world renowned composer, conductor, and musicologist Francesco Lotoro, the program restores classical, folk, and popular works, many written on scraps of paper or recalled from memory, to public consciousness. Featuring world and U.S. premieres from Lotoro's archive, this concert honors a repertoire that endured against unimaginable evil.
