"'There is insufficient recognition in the [EU] text of the Hamas atrocity that started this round of conflict,' said Fitton-Brown, who is now an adviser to the Counter Extremism Project, a non-profit group based in Germany and the US.

'There is also insufficient recognition of Hamas' explicit commitment to treat any ceasefire as an opportunity to regroup and do it again; with the ultimate aim of killing Jews and destroying the state of Israel. This needs to be stated upfront,' he said."

"'It's one of the crazy things — the Houthis say this is an operation against Israeli interests, but it's not at all. The Israelis have almost no interests in the Red Sea, and the Houthis are simply harming poor Egyptians,' Edmund Fitton-Brown, a former British ambassador to Yemen and an advisor to the Counter Extremism Project — a group based in Germany and the US, told EUobserver."

"Hamas’s wealth and financial foundation might still be largely intact. As a result, the militant group could potentially recover despite the devastation in the enclave, said senior director of the Counter Extremism Project, Hans-Jakob Schindler.

He stressed the need for a global strategy to limit Hamas's finances, including stronger US and EU sanctions, closing regulatory loopholes in countries that had not previously listed the group, such as Switzerland, and globally recognising Hamas as a terrorist organisation."

"Qatar has been accused by several U.S. allies of state-sponsored terrorism, and serves as a hub for terror financing and a 'safe haven for religious extremists expelled by other countries,' according to The Counter Extremism Project."

"Chalker and GRA in "Project ENDGAME" also zoomed in on the American organization Counter Extremism Project (CEP) in an effort to 'Mitigate Attacks' against Qatar.

Former U.S. Ambassador Mark Wallace, the CEO of the Counter Extremist Project, told Fox News Digital that after the Qatari operation 'hacked accounts that contained email correspondence with members of CEP leadership, they engaged in a PR campaign to destroy us and paid Americans to do their bidding. All to whitewash their support of Hamas in the face of our criticism. We have called out their support of Hamas since 2017.'"

CEP Senior Director Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler interviewed for story: "Since Hamas was in exclusive control in Gaza after 2007, they won the election in 2006, throughout Fatah by force and weapons in 2007, Israel has attacked Gaza and Hamas pretty much every single year. The last attack on Gaza and Hamas positions before October 7 was in May 2023." 

"Hizb ut-Tahrir is global, and much of its current leadership is in the UK and Australia. The group is banned across the world, including in the Middle East. Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon and Turkey have all outlawed Hizb ut-Tahrir, according to the New York-based Counter Extremism Project."

"A panel of public and private sector experts discussed the findings of the 2023 FATF report on Crowdfunding for Terrorist Financing  which highlights the four main ways in which terrorist groups exploit crowdfunding for terrorist financing. The report also looks at challenges faced by those involved in the crowdfunding landscape, including investigative agencies, and best practices and recommendations for countries in developing a deeper risk understanding of this sector and effectively combatting terrorist financing.

CEP Senior Advisor Ambassador Edmund Fitton-Brown: "'This isn't about Gaza. It's about the Houthis trying to disrupt international trade and the world economy just for the sake of it. Solidarity against this is very important,' said Edmund Fitton-Brown, the UK's former ambassador to Yemen...

'What they have morphed into in recent years is a free fighting outfit. They love to fight. They enjoy conflict,' said the ex-diplomat, who is now an adviser to the Counter Extremism Project, a non-profit group based in Germany and the US."
