Mr. Alexander Ritzmann: Transnational Right-Wing Extremism and Terrorism / Antisemitism
Senior Advisor, Counter Extremism Project (CEP)

On September 17, 2025, CEP held a webinar “Transnational Connections Between Antisemitic Extremist and Terrorist Actors." This is  the first webinar of a three-part series focused on highlighting various aspects of the role of antisemitism in the mobilization to violence by extremists and terrorist actors, supported by the Federal Foreign Office of Germany.

This webinar explores how antisemitic actors from different ideological backgrounds—right-wing, left-wing, Islamist, and foreign ideology movements—interact across borders and ideological lines to amplify antisemitic narratives and actions. We analyze the mechanisms and platforms facilitating these transnational linkages, including coordinated protests, shared symbols and slogans, and digital propaganda networks. Drawing from cross-country findings, the webinar highlights how seemingly distinct extremist milieus converge around antisemitism as a unifying narrative and tactical framework.
