Οι πληροφορίες της αξιόπιστης τουρκικής εφημερίδας Radikal ότι ο Tayyip Erdoğan προτίθεται να παραστεί, κατά την εβδομάδα των επετειακών εκδηλώσεων για την άλωση της Κωνσταντινούπολης, σε “ναμάζι” (μουσουλμανική προσευχή) μαζί με άλλους ηγέτες του ισλαμικού κόσμου στην Αγία Σοφία, για πρώτη φορά μετά την μετατροπή της σε τζαμί το 1935, συζητήθηκαν (όσο συζητήθηκαν) μόνο στο πλαίσιο των ελληνο-τουρκικών σχέσεων.
Ωστόσο, η στόχευση μιας τέτοιας πρωτοβουλίας, εάν όντως πραγματοποιηθεί, είναι πολύ ευρύτερη.

The Development of Home-Grown Jihadist Radicalisation in Italy, by Lorenzo Vidino
Theme:
The Muslim communities and jihadist networks in Italy and Spain present similar characteristics and it is therefore interesting to look at the recent development of home-grown jihadist radicalisation in Italy.[1]
Summary:
Over the last three years the demographic and operational features of jihadism in Italy have shown significant shifts. The first generation of foreign-born militants with ties to various jihadist groups outside Europe is still active, although less intensely than in the past. The Italian authorities, however, have increasingly noted forms of home-grown radicalisation similar to those recorded in other West European countries over the past 10 years.
The lag has been caused by a simple demographic factor. As in Spain, large-scale Muslim immigration to Italy began only in the late 1980s and early 1990s, some 20 (in some cases 30 or 40) years later than in economically more developed European countries like France, Germany, the Netherlands and the UK. The first, relatively large, second generation of Italian-born Muslims is therefore coming of age only now, as the sons of the first immigrants are becoming adults in their adoptive country. Of these hundreds of thousands of young men and women, a statistically insignificant yet security-relevant number is embracing radical ideas.

Νεώτερα στοιχεία περί των Τζιχαντιστών της Συρίας, του Ιωάννη Μιχαλέτου
Ενδιαφέροντα στοιχεία παρουσιάστηκαν σε πρόσφατη έρευνα του διεθνούς οργανισμού μελέτης της ριζοσπαστικοποίησης, σχετικά με την προέλευση των "Τζιχαντιστών" που δρουν στη Συρία και προέρχονται από Ευρωπαικές χώρες και Δυτικές χώρες γενικότερα.
«Συναγερμός» Μπλερ Κατά του Ισλαμικού Εξτρεμισμού
Οι Δυτικοί ηγέτες θα έπρεπε να βάλουν στην άκρη τις διαφορές τους με τη Ρωσία για την Ουκρανία και να επικεντρωθούν στην αυξανόμενη απειλή του ισλαμικού εξτρεμισμού, ανέφερε χθες σε ομιλία του στο Λονδίνο ο πρώην πρωθυπουργός της Βρετανίας Τόνι Μπλερ, τονίζοντας ότι η διάχυση της ακραίας ιδεολογίας στην περιοχή, όπως και στο Πακιστάν, το Αφγανιστάν και τη Βόρεια Αφρική, «εκπροσωπεί τη μεγαλύτερη απειλή για την παγκόσμια ασφάλεια τον 21ο αιώνα».

Turkish Flotilla Charity Tied to Terrorism Again, by Jonathan Schanzer (FDD)
January 23, 2014
Serbian news agencies reported this week that a Turkish charity, best known for organizing a 2010 flotilla to Gaza that led to conflict with Israeli commandos on the high seas, is under investigation in Bosnia-Herzegovina for exporting weapons to jihadis in Syria. Reports (see here and here) suggest that the Humanitarian Relief Foundation (IHH) may have been working with several local charities and businesses, and even the Bosnia-Herzegovina Ministry of Defense.
