"Yet according to a June 2024 report from the Counter-Extremism Project, the situation remained as bad as ever: “The regime oversees and controls every aspect of humanitarian work in their territory: determining beneficiary lists, providing permits for any movements of aid organizations’ personnel, and deciding which local entities are eligible to serve as contractors, local implementation partners, or third-party monitors for humanitarian projects.”"

CEP Senior Director Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler interviewed: "The Washington Post reported this week that the Islamic State terror group “has regrouped in Somalia — and has global ambitions.”

On this week’s edition of “The Hunt with WTOP national security correspondent J.J. Green,” Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler, former U.N. coordinator for the U.N.’s al-Qaida, Taliban, ISIS monitoring groups, says this has been in the works since 2021."

“Nazi house number 88 in Oswiecim, Poland, just outside the barbed wire of Auschwitz and the inspiration for the film The Zone of Interest , is opening to visitors for the first time in 80 years. This building, where Rudolf Höss, the commandant of the Nazi camp, lived with his family, will now house studies on hatred and radicalization. While Höss created a heavenly life for his family in this house, he was organizing mass murders right next door. The former owner of the house, Maria Jurczak, told the New York Times that she decided to sell the property because it had become a burden on her and her family. The Counter Extremism Project purchased the house and began the process of returning it to society. Counter Extremism Project (CEP) is a non-governmental organization that works to investigate radicalism and ideologies of hate, combat such threats, and raise public awareness.”

"Since the liberation of Auschwitz in January 1945, the house, 88 Legionow Street, has been in the hands of a Polish family. However, last year it was acquired by the Counter Extremism Project, a New York-based non-governmental organization that has been working to combat extremism since 2014. "

"After the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Va., in 2017, national attention focused on extreme right-wing groups in the country. Some groups retreated from public view and became more active online, but the groups never went away, said Joshua Fisher-Birch, a researcher with the Counter Extremism Project, a think tank with offices in New York and Berlin.

Now, some extremists are hoping to take advantage of the growing popular support for  policies like mass deportation, even if many remain deeply suspicious of the government, Mr. Fisher-Birch said. But even within the universe of radical groups, Blood Tribe is an outlier, he added."

"After 11 people died in the worst mass shooting in Sweden’s history, we’re learning more about what happened and the United States’ concerns about terrorism.

On this week’s episode of “The Hunt with WTOP national security correspondent J.J. Green,” Hans-Jakob Schindler, senior director of the Counter Extremism Project, discusses another case of a lone actor carrying out a deadly mass shooting."

"To mark the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz Birkenau German Nazi Concentration and Extermination Camp, UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay recently travelled to Poland to take part in official commemorations. On site, she visited a new research centre on hate, extremism and radicalization being created by the Counter Extremism Project with support from UNESCO in the former house of Auschwitz commandant, Rudolf Höss."

"“White supremacist extremists will likely continue to see the FBI as a threat to their organizing and as a convenient opponent in propaganda,” said Joshua Fisher Birch, a terrorism analyst at the non-profit Counter Extremism Project."
