Fact:
On May 8, 2019, Taliban insurgents detonated an explosive-laden vehicle and then broke into American NGO Counterpart International’s offices in Kabul. At least seven people were killed and 24 were injured.
CEP Senior Advisor Ian Acheson writes: "Shawcross has now disagreed publicly. The Home Office had, he said, ‘ignored’ key recommendations to beef up Prevent’s performance and the glass remained only ‘half full.’ I have some experience of bureaucratic sleight of hand at work when it comes to reviews and recommendations. When I was tasked by the Government to look into the Prison Service’s colossal and unforgivable failures in containing Islamist extremism a few years ago, I made 69 recommendations which were mysteriously repurposed into 11 without my consent; eight were finally accepted."
CEP Senior Director Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler quoted: “Since a rocket hit the Israeli-annexed Golan on Saturday, killing twelve children and young people, diplomats have been working hard to prevent a war between Israel and the Islamist Hezbollah militia in southern Lebanon. Jerusalem declared that the attack on the Druze-populated town of Majdal Shams crossed a red line and announced counterattacks. […] Security expert Hans-Jakob Schindler sees "no real chance at the moment that Hezbollah will be persuaded to retreat behind the river." He told the Tagesspiegel newspaper: "At the moment, it is not only in the interest of Hezbollah, but also in the interest of Iran, which is Hezbollah's main sponsor , to keep tensions with Israel as high as possible.”
“In 2023, Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody took action against pro-abortion activists Caleb Freestone, Amber Marie Smith-Stewart, Annarella Rivera, and Gabriella Victoria Oropesa, who vandalized a pregnancy center. According to an article by Life News, the activists spray-painted the following message on the pregnancy center's buildings: “If abortions aren’t safe, neither are you.” The vandals are affiliated with a group called “Jane’s Revenge,” which has “claimed responsibility for acts of vandalism and firebombings of anti-abortion offices and clinics,” according to the Counter Extremism Project.”
“[…] Prisons are predatory places,' Professor Ian Acheson, former prison governor and senior advisor to the Counter Extremism Project, told the Daily Mail. 'This alleged incident together with hardcore porn re-enactments will have been seen by thousands of prisoners thousands of times. 'The commodification of female officers as 'meat' will put them at active risk.' And he added: 'I am particularly worried about female officers working in the high security estate who are in close daily proximity to extremely dangerous people with no impulse control such as serial rapists and terrorists. 'This case is a public relations disaster for HM Prison and Probation Service. But more importantly it undermines the safety and security of front-line female staff who do such a vital job on our behalf.'”
CEP Senior Advisor Ian Acheson quoted: “... Ian Acheson, a former prison governor and counter-terrorism expert at the Home Office, told i: “Airports all over the world now have routinely armed officers patrolling. Their main purpose is to stop terrorists committing a mass casualty event. “While we should wait for due process in relation to the Manchester incident, as a wider point we must ensure armed officers have the support of the public and the government to carry out their vital protective role. “We can’t know how many attacks these men and women have thwarted and we owe them our full support to carry out their tasks professionally within the law.” Mr Acheson said he believes policing bosses responsible for retaining volunteer firearms officers will be examining the Manchester Airport incident “with particular interest”. Though police officers are not allowed to join a trade union by law, they are represented collectively by the Police Federation.”
"The Counter Extremism Project, an association focused on extremist groups, said Nazzaro worked for the US Department of Homeland Security between 2004 and 2006, and reportedly with US forces in the Middle East on counterterrorism — a role that gave him top-secret clearance.
Nazzaro resigned his US national security position after developing his white nationalist beliefs, the Counter Extremism Project said."
"The French authorities face the major challenge of organizing these games because the individual events are taking place in the country's densest urban area, terrorism expert Hans-Jakob Schindler from the Counter Extremism Project told ZDFheute."
