"On this week’s episode of 'The Hunt with WTOP national security correspondent JJ Green,' Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler, senior director at the Counter Extremism Project, talks about Israel’s strike and says Iran is limited in what it can do."

CEP CEO Ambassador Mark D. Wallace & CEP Senior Advisor Ambassador Edmund Fitton-Brown write: "Washington's misplaced priorities in the Middle East over the last decade have left tens of millions exposed to the aggression of an Iranian-backed menace, the Houthis, who killed three civilian mariners this week in a missile strike on a cargo ship in the Red Sea. With Tehran's support, Houthi forces have launched near daily missile and drone attacks and committed acts of piracy and hostage taking since October that has disrupted the global economy and threatens wider war. It is critical that the U.S. move beyond the half-measures it has deployed, end the crisis, and restore stability."

CEP Senior Advisor Ian Acheson writes: "As the scale and barbarity of the Hamas terrorist assault on Israel begins to unfold, to no-one’s surprise Iran has leant its formal support to the insurgents. While thousands of rockets rain down on Israeli civilians and and Iran’s proxies pull men women and children out of their homes — murdering them in the streets — it’s worth remembering that the United Kingdom still has not proscribed that regime’s state terror exporters, the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps."

"In 2022, Twitter found itself under pressure to cancel accounts linked to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. At first it resisted, telling the Counter Extremism Project that @igrciran hadn’t violated its policies, even though it had tweeted a threat to assassinate President Trump...
A spokesperson from the Counter Extremism Project told The Washington Times that terrorist content has decreased on social media platforms since 2014, but there’s still much work to do."

CEP Senior Director Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler on Iranian shelling of Kurdish groups in Iraq's Kurdistan region: "I'm not yet aware that there are major troop movements across the border, which would be something new...This was a warning shot against those Kurdish groups to not to try to cross the border into Iran or not to try to do any attacks inside Iran while the regime deals with the unrest."
