CEP Senior Director Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler radio interview: "Eine Drohne der CIA hat Bin-Laden-Nachfolger Al-Sawahiri in Afghanistan getötet. Nach Ansicht des Terrorismus-Experten Hans-Jakob Schindler bedeutet das aber noch lange nicht das Ende von al-Kaida."

CEP Advisory Board Member Ambassador Nathan Sales: "'Nathan Sales, who previously served as ambassador-at-large and coordinator for counterterrorism, called the strike 'a great counterterrorism success' in an interview with the Washington Examiner, though he added, 'It's too soon to claim this successful strike as a vindication of the Biden administration's so-called over-the-horizon approach to counterterrorism. All due credit for pulling off this decapitation strike. But in order to really dismantle a terrorist organization, it takes more than one strike on the group's leader. It takes a systematic campaign of pressure against the entire organization.'"

"At the time of the drone strike, Zawahiri was sitting on the balcony of the house where he was hiding with his family in the center of the Afghan capital of Kabul. The home was owned by Sirajuddin Haqqani, “who is not only the leader of the Haqqani, but he is also the interior minister of Afghanistan,” said Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler, senior director of the Counter Extremism Project and former coordinator of the ISIL, al-Qaida and Taliban Monitoring Team of the UN Security Council."

He “is not interested in fighting in the mountains. He thinks more internationally“, said of him Hamid Mir, biographer of Bin Laden, quoted by the think tank Counter-Extremism Project (CEP).
With him, in fact, “Al-Qaeda has become increasingly decentralized, with authority resting primarily in the hands of its affiliate officials“, adds the CEP which attributes to it a leading role in the reorganization of many jihadist groups.

CEP Senior Advisor Dr. Hany Farid quoted: "'The difference in Biden’s overall appearance between the two videos appears to be just a result of different lighting in the room'” Hany Farid, image forensics expert and professor at University of California, Berkeley told Motherboard. And in the original video from the conference, he noted, 'you can clearly see that the claims being made about blinking and other artifacts are unfounded.'"

"On this week’s episode of 'The Hunt with WTOP National Security Correspondent J.J. Green,' Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler, senior director of the Counter Extremism Project, says GIFCT, founded by Facebook, Google, Microsoft and Twitter is not doing all it can to make a difference."

"Dr Hans-Jakob Schindler, at the Counter Extremism Project, said: 'Fraudulent identity documents and passports continue to present a serious security challenge.' ... Dr Schindler explained how the forgeries can be used. 'These facilitate the movement of people, vehicles, money and materiel across borders and through inspection points,' he said. ..."

CEP research referenced: "Selon le Counter Extremism Project, "le groupe promeut l'idéologie du pouvoir blanc par la prolifération de festivals de musique et d'enregistrements.""

CEP Senior Director Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler quoted: ""La coordination va mal", tranche Hans-Jakob Schindler, directeur de l'ONG Counter-Extremism Project (CEP) et ex-expert de l'ONU sur le jihadisme. Il regrette le départ des Français, tant les Etats africains semblent impuissants face au fléau jihadiste."

"IS carried out at least 10 confirmed attacks in June in Deir e-Zor, Raqqa, Hama and Homs provinces. The attacks killed at least 25 Syrian regime forces and three civilians, and wounded 26 others. This is the highest number of deaths attributed to IS since September 2021, according to the Counter Extremism Project (CEP), an international organization formed to combat the growing threat of extremist ideologies."
