Telegraph: Terrorists observe our posture and react accordingly – we must do better
CEP Senior Advisor Ian Acheson writes: "On Tuesday, my organisation, the Counter Extremist Project, launches Hiding in Plain Sight – a discussion paper which I co-authored with a colleague from the European Policy Centre.
The paper is built on discussions between international experts from frontline practitioners to clinical psychologists to propose ideas for strengthening our protective services to detect and defeat what we call “disguised compliance”. In other words we wanted to know what more could be done to test the authenticity of the relatively small number of terrorist offenders if and when they say they have recanted a commitment to 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.
