CEP Senior Advisor Sir Ivor Roberts writes: "Another equally dangerous jihadist threat, rising inexorably out of the chaos sewn by Kabul’s seizure , will prove entirely beyond the Taliban’s ability to control. The Islamic State-Khorasan Province, commonly referred to as Isis-K, IS-K or Iskp, was founded in 2015, when Isis leaders sought to expand their influence beyond the borders of Iraq and Syria. The group grew quickly, orchestrating regular attacks throughout Afghanistan and recruiting directly from the Taliban’s ranks those most dissatisfied by their unwillingness to fight western forces more aggressively."

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.
