CEP Senior Director Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler interviewed on the situation in Gaza and Hamas. "In a rare press conference with international journalists, the Israeli Prime Minister has tried to defend his controversial plans to seize Gaza City. Benjamin Netanyahu spoke just before an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council, where Israel was strongly condemned for its conduct in Gaza. He claimed taking control of Hamas' remaining strongholds was the best way to end the war and secure the release of hostages."  

CEP Senior Director Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler interviewed on the situation in Gaza and Hamas. "Chancellor Friedrich Merz says Germany will suspend arms exports to Israel that could be used in the Gaza Strip. It marks a major shift for the German government, which has been one of Israel's staunchest allies and largest arms suppliers. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has condemned the decision. It comes after Israel announced plans to take control of Gaza City, sparking widespread condemnation both internationally and at home."

One of them even dug her own grave in the video. "It was a shock element deliberately copied by Hamas, which the terrorist militia 'Islamic State' regularly used in its hostage videos and continues to use to this day," says Hans-Jakob Schindler, Senior Director of the international Counter Extremism Project. "It was clear: The Israeli government had to respond."

According to Fisher-Birch, giving the green light for such ideas to be shared freely made the platform into a “bullhorn” for right-wing extremists.

The analyst also noted that this situation was the right time for Substack to review its terms of service and guidelines and ensure that hate speech and discrimination are prohibited.

However, he believes the platform will continue to tolerate such content, reminding us of its failure to follow “limited community guidelines” in 2024. During that time, a white supremacist blog urged violence against Jewish people, which was reported by the Counter Extremism Project (CEP).
