National Interest: America and its Allies Lack a Plan for Dealing with Violent Extremism
"While the numbers for the United States are much lower, the alarm bells are nevertheless ringing. According to a study by the Counter Extremism Project, the United States has prosecuted more than 400 jihadist terrorists. Between 2018 and 2024, sixty-one of these convicts—a quarter of those currently incarcerated—will complete their sentences and re-enter society. With recidivism rates of between 44 percent for federal prisoners and 20 percent for Guantanamo detainees, we clearly have not seen the end of jihadi-inspired domestic violence."
The Counter Extremism Project Presents
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.
