The first show is called Enduring Music: Compositions from the Holocaust, and its organizers told the Reporter that it is “a landmark concert of music…composed in ghettos and death camps, performed in defiance of resurgent anti-Semitism.” The Counter Extremism Project’s Daniel Roth told the Reporter that the performance, which will take place on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, “will bring classical, folk, and popular music nearly erased by atrocity back into public consciousness through the work of world-renowned composer, conductor, and musicologist Francesco Lotoro.”

The Counter Extremism Project (CEP) reports on the methods used by extremists and terrorist groups on the Internet to spread propaganda and incite violence. Last week, CEP researchers found a conversation in a pro-ISIS chatroom, where an individual claimed to have used an AI program to ask the quantity of explosives necessary for a terrorist attack. The same user claimed that using a paid version of the same AI could yield instructions for making explosives. CEP researchers were unable to confirm this in a test of the same AI platform.

Investigators are indeed feeling a certain pressure to succeed, believes extremism expert Hans-Jakob Schindler, director of the Counter Extremism Project in Berlin. "The authorities want to deliver results, along the lines of: We need an arrest now," Schindler told the Munich-based newspaper Merkur, published by Ippen.Media.

Terrorism expert Hans-Jakob Schindler of the transatlantic think tank Counter Extremism Project says that the interim president relies on foreign jihadists to stabilize his rule and does not want to appear within the Islamist spectrum as someone who betrays former comrades-in-arms.

He helped build the group's operational capabilities and trained some of the hijackers who took part in the September 11, 2001 attacks against the United States, according to the Counter Extremism Project.
