The year 2020 will forever be marred by the global pandemic which spread around the world, locking us in our homes, hiding our faces behind masks and tragically taking hundreds of thousands of lives. As we enter 2021 the death toll continues to rise though the arrival of numerous vaccines has provided a much needed glimmer of hope. However, while a thin shard of light has begun to lift the seemingly unending darkness of last year, the ramifications of the pandemic will continue to be felt for years to come; not least the impending economic crisis set to grip the world economy. Yet, it has by no means been all bad news. In the face of such tragedy we have seen communities come together, neighbours and strangers helping one another and examples of heart-breaking sacrifice, love and hope.

Activist far rights group are small, badly organised and infighting. Main typology of action is to try and attract (media) attention by organising provocative actions (tearing pages out the Quran, grilling pig meat in front of a mosque, occupying roof tops of mosques or refugee centers) with small numbers of activists.
Next to activist groups we see online appearance, internationalisation and radicalisation of larger groups of (mainly young, sometimes very young) extreme right activist.

Last, there is the Political party Forum for Democracy (FVD, Democratic Forum) with two members in Parliament. FVD, and more specific party leader Thierry Baudet and his trustees, associate themselves on frequent occasions with right extremist ideology and right extremist people.

The possibility that an extreme right-wing loner in the Netherlands exhibits copycat behavior following an attack such as in Christchurch (maart 2019), is conceivable. The Dutch extreme right-wing landscape is usually not violent, marginal, fragmented and lacking appealing leaders. Online is right-wing extremist activity.

Thanks to a combination of increasing polarization, new internet possibilities and an ideological renewal of extreme right-wing groups in particular, in recent years there has been a revival of the phenomena of the extreme right and (in the shadow) extreme left observable in Western Europe. In the Netherlands has the refugee crisis (2013-2016) played a big role in this revival. In addition, the Zwarte Pieten discussion, which has been fed very fiercely for a few years now, seized, by both extreme- right than left, to speak of a culture war. The municipalities of Schiedam, Rotterdam, Vlaardingen and Maassluis want an answer to the question in response to these developments: “What are the dangers that arise from political extremist ideas within the region at the moment, and how can the municipalities respond effectively to this?Through qualitative research in the region, combined with the internet- and a literature search conducted in the period April-September 2019 has been performed, this report tries to answer this question.

In the Netherlands, several convictions were pronounced in relation to right-wing terrorism. One defendant, for example, was convicted by a court of appeal for preparing to commit murder with terrorist intent, illegal possession of a weapon and ammunition, with the intent to commit a terrorist offence or of preparing or facilitating such an offence. He was associated with a Facebook profile of the group Anti-Terreur Brigade (ATB, ‘Anti-Terror Brigade’) that the court considered a right-wing extremist association, within which violence against Muslims was considered justified and people were trained to use violence. This group also discussed actions against left-wing extremists. According to the defendant, he was the administrator of the group’s Facebook page and partly responsible for the communication on the page. He also actively recruited new members for the group, based, among other things, on their willingness to ??efight against Muslims??f. The defendant also possessed a firearm, which he stated in a chat conversation was suitable for shooting left-wing protagonists. The court sentenced the defendant to three years’ imprisonment, partially suspended for 12 months, with a probation period of three years.

Hungarian right-wing extremist organisations often consist of a hard core of five to ten people and highly fluctuating membership. They maintain connections primarily in neighbouring countries, but also with like-minded groups in other EU Member States, including Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and the UK. In Hungary, right-wing extremist organisations focus on organising rallies and ‘marches’ to mark anniversaries of historical events. During such events, behaviour, symbols and chanting disparaging political, religious or ethnic minorities has been observed. For example, it has been reported that neo-Nazis from different parts of Europe gather each February in Budapest to mark what they call the ‘Day of Honour’. Music and concerts play a key role in providing coherence to and propagating neo-Nazi groups across Europe. The Oi! and ‘Rock against Communism’ (RAC) music genres are reported to be one of the main unifying elements. With their aggressiveness, they constitute one of the vectors of expression of neo-Nazi or skinhead groups and pose as an ‘underground’ culture. Right-wing extremist groups try to circumvent bans in one country by organising or attending meetings or concerts in other countries. In Belgium, for example, these concerts can bring together several dozens or even several hundred participants and also attract neo-Nazi audiences from abroad, including Germany, Hungary,the Netherlands, Sweden and the UK.

Right-wing extremism
In Europe, and also in the Netherlands, a right-wing terrorist attack by a loner is conceivable. Although the Dutch right-wing extremist offline scene is characterized by fragmentation, weak leadership, personal animosity and lack of a consistent organization, can be the threat of one (internet-)loner come. Furthermore, in the Netherlands there seems to be some resonance from the terrorist attack in Christchurch in some individuals. They are not so much driven by well-defined right-wing extremist ideas, but have been getting excited about social developments in society and politics in particular from a mix of personal grievances and psychological problems.

(…)

Right Terrorism
The right-wing terrorist attack in Christchurch has inspired several perpetrators worldwide, like in El Paso, Oslo, Halle and Hanau. In the Netherlands, too, a legal terrorist attack by a loner is conceivable. This estimate is mainly based on the possibility that a Dutch (internet)loner radicalizes and commits to a right-wing extremist act of violence. The Dutch right-wing extremist and right-wing extremist organizational landscape is fragmented, groups are marginal and non-violent and no appealing leaders can mobilize large groups. It is precisely here that there is a danger with regard to the threat posed by loners because they are disorganized (online) can radicalize.

(…)

The threat from the right-wing extremist is increasing, right-wing terrorist attacks are glorified online and inspire like-minded people.

(…)

Worldwide right-wing extremist internet community
In recent years, an increase in right-wing extremist violence has been observed in various European countries, like Britain and Germany. In Germany, for example, three attacks have taken place in the past nine months (the murder of Lübcke, Halle and Hanau). Characteristic of the current right-wing extremist attackers is that they are no longer members of a neo-Nazi group, but often seem to feel part of a global internet community. Glorification of such attacks on right-wing extremist forums is a source of inspiration for like-minded people. The narrative, that is used on international online forums, is partly inspired by the anti-Semitic and racist periodical Siege, which appeared in the United States in the 1980s. This philosophy also has some sympathizers among Dutch right-wing extremists, making such a copycat assessment also conceivable in the Netherlands.

Confrontations between the right- and left-wing extremists
In recent years, contradictions and confrontations between far-right and far-left groups in countries such as the United States and Germany have surfaced. The polarized political climate in the United States is reflected in international extremist online channels that are also used by the Dutch.

(…)

Extremism, radicalization and polarization

Manifestations of right-wing extremism in the Netherlands are few in the streets, in the scale of violent incidents, in organization, in financing and in willingness to violence. The group of Dutch right-wing extremists active internationally online is also limited.

Right-wing extremism in the Netherlands
Unlike countries like Germany, France, Belgium, Britain and Italy have few extremist organizations and few activists in the Netherlands. In the Netherlands, there has been a small number of extremist violent incidents per year for many years. The visibility of right-wing extremists on the street is marginal. The Dutch right-wing extremist scene is in numbers, organizational structures, financing and the willingness to commit violence cannot be compared to neighboring countries.

De Anger
Two lawsuits have recently been launched that shed more light on the appeal that the terrorist act in Christchurch and the motives behind it can exert on individuals in Dutch society. The profiles of the suspects in these lawsuits are different from those of the attacker in Christchurch and his epigones. These are not young men who have been radicalized via the internet, but older men whose ideological background seems to be consistent with the German concept of Wutbürger: furious (system hating) citizens who are not so much driven by well-defined right-wing extremist ideas, but have been getting excited about social developments in society in general and in politics in particular from a mix of personal grievances and psychological problems. Refugees and Muslims often have to suffer, because they would threaten the "self" of Dutch society.

Online right-wing extremism
The recently hacked database of the fascist and neo-Nazi private web forum IronMarch shows that a small group of Dutch right-wing extremists was active online internationally and searched for right-wing extremist content. This forum is linked to international Neo-Nazi (online) groups, zoals Nuclear Weapons Division and Fire War Division, and had between ten to fifteen users who seem to come from the Netherlands over a period of seven years. Not so much the number of Dutch people, but especially the apocalyptic and violent "Siege narrative", which Dutch youngsters also enjoy is disturbing.

The MIVD conducts research into phenomena of right-wing extremism and its influence on Defense. Right-wing extremism in the defense organization can undermine the internal security of the armed forces. This concerns, for example, internal unrest as a result of discrimination against the military, which puts both the hierarchical structure within a unit and mutual cooperation under pressure. It is therefore important individuals or groups within the defense organization, who espouse extremist ideology or (active) support to extremist parties and organizations, to be recognized in time.
In 2019 the MIVD has investigated two cases of possible right-wing extremism. This did not reveal any threat against the armed forces.

Right-wing extremism

Over several decades, the extreme right in the Netherlands was characterized by a neo-Nazi, fascist and anti-Semitic ideas. Existing groups were small and generally had little influence. This picture has changed in recent years; other forms of right-wing extremism have replaced traditional neo-Nazis, who have always remained a marginal group. This does not mean that the ideology of neo-Nazis has completely disappeared. The different variants of right-wing extremism have become much more of a mixture of different ideologies, old and new. The anti-Islam point of view is the most important new ideological driver that has increasingly emerged in recent years. 2019 was the year of right-wing extremist attackers worldwide. In addition to a number of attacks by right-wing extremists in the United States, this trend is also visible in European countries and in New Zealand and Australia. Especially the attack of an Australian in Christchurch, New Zealand, waarbij 51 people in a mosque were killed, has incited people to copycat behavior. The use of social media and especially the live streaming of attacks (like in Christchurch) plays a role in this. For example, the perpetrators of Oslo in Norway and Halle in Germany regarded the perpetrator in Christchurch as a saint and one of them declared that he had designated him as his successor. Copycat behavior is reinforced because attackers and their sympathizers find each other on right-wing extremist websites. From there, invitations are sent to closed groups, where even more extreme statements are made than on the websites. Extreme content can incite people to radicalization or even violence. The Dutch are also members of such international online groups, an example of an organization that pursues undemocratic objectives with democratic means., is Erkenbrand. The ultimate aim of this Dutch alto legal movement is to achieve an authoritarian political system that only respects the fundamental rights of the white citizen (man) guarantees. Traditional right-wing extremists react very strongly to the actions of anti-racism activists in particular, seeking to connect with locally protesting citizens. This has already happened several times (threat with) Violence led to publish and visit home addresses of anti-racism activists or to target anti-Black Pete protesters, sometimes with the participation of groups of football hooligans.

The Netherlands has a relatively small number of openly ultra-nationalist, Fascist and Nazi organizations and networks. Their main targets are known as migrants, Refugees, Muslims, broadly anyone who is not white, which does not belong in their eyes.
Fortunately, there is still a widespread anti-racist reflex to take on the targets and victims of extreme right. And no church will get the reason in her head to subsidize these groups, a room to rent or a house to sell.

Within minority groups there are extreme nationalist and fascist movements and organizations. By which anti-racist reflex tendency many people to not want to see specific extreme right. And that has major implications for the minorities within the minority groups and their target victim.
Turkish Gray Wolves are such fascist organization. for Kurds, Alevis, Armenians, and leftists and feminists with a background in Turkey they are in the Netherlands a daily threat. But towards the English majority Gray Wolves play the role of innocent cultural organizations. And if they manage to maintain good contacts in a number of cities with municipal, which provide them with subsidies and spaces to rent or buy.
Therefore, we investigated the municipalities Turkish fascists are financially or in any other form's sake. We have 22 municipalities through the Public Administration Act (WOB) invited to submit their documents relating to their (financial) relationships with Gray Wolves organizations in the period 2013 tot en met 2018.

Right-wing extremism
In Dutch society, there are concerns about the threat of right-wing extremism. This arose after the right-terrorist attack in New Zealand (Christchurch) in March 2019 and reinforced by several copy-cat attacks after the United States (Step) a Europe (Oslo, Halle). These concerns are not adequately reflect the real threat. The extreme right scene in the Netherlands is small, fragmented and almost violent. However, there is also risk that the Netherlands receive an extreme right-wing maverick online inspiration or exhibiting violent loner copy-cat behavior in response to such an attack in Christchurch.

right terrorism
A right-terrorist attack is conceivable a loner in Netherlands. This estimate is mainly based on the possibility that a Dutch (internet-) loner radicalized, and proceeds to an extreme right-wing-inspired act of force. Right-wing extremist groups in the Netherlands are marginal and non-violent. Right-terrorist violence in other European countries do not automatically translate into attacks in Netherlands.

Risk copy-cat Christchurch
The perpetrators of El Paso, Oslo is a, most recent, Halle have been inspired greatly by the right-wing terrorist attack Brenton Tarrant in Christchurch. Thus, it is in DTN 50 identified risk of copy-cat behavior as a result of the attacks in New Zealand has become a real risk. Both the bomber of El Paso (20 kill) as had Oslo, like Tarrant, the attacks announced an international Internet forum. And they used the popular omvolkingstheorie 'in right-extremist circles to support their right-wing terrorist attacks. The central thesis of the 'omvolkingstheorie "that is going on a major demographic replace European' tribal peoples' in the Western world by the increase in the number of migrants caused by a deliberate migration of the political elite. What is striking is that the manifests of Christchurch and El Paso apart from traditional right-wing themes also include elements commonly as 'left' seen, as criticism of the international business and attention to ecology; This latter issue is, moreover, an element in the extreme right-wing ideas. Dutch also active on Internet forums like 4Chan, 8and which can EndChan, besides many other content, plenty of right-wing content is shared. In the Netherlands there are signals radicalising people with right-wing orientation. It can also not be excluded that loss Dutch loner whether radicalized over the internet and proceeds to a terrorist act.

Threat of right-wing extremism in Europe
found in recent DTN period abroad several serious acts of violence rather than a right-wing extremist motive: a political assassination with a right-wing extremist motive in Kassel (Duitsland), an attack with a right-wing extremist motive in El Paso (United States), a failed attempt by a right-wing extremist terrorist in Oslo (Norway) and an unsuccessful attempt on a synagogue and two killing by an extreme right-wing terrorist in Halle (Duitsland). The attacks abroad should initially mainly be seen in local and national context. In recent years, the European Union and the United States are seeing an increase in right-wing violence. The threat of violent right-wing extremism in Europe in general can however be assessed as low. Because there have already occurred several right-wing terrorist attacks by individuals who have been inspired by the bomber in Christchurch, are pamphlet or similar (online) ideas, it is conceivable that the future can be made more copy-cat attacks.(…)
Right-wing extremism
The Dutch right-wing offline scene is characterized by fragmentation, weak leadership, personal animosity and lack of a consistent organization. Extreme right and extreme right-wing organizations in the Netherlands have together several hundred members. The Dutch right-wing extremist scene is whatever nonviolent. The scene has various ideological directions: including neo-Nazism, counter-jihad movement and 'identitarian' movement. The scene is under increasing influence of alt-right and its white identity politics. Although the right-wing extremist scene is fragmented, are there links between members and organizations.
Right-wing extremism online
During the massive influx of refugees in Europe 2015 en 2016 there is in the Netherlands has been a huge increase in right-wing extremist content online. This increase was especially visible in the social media pages of some extreme right-wing and extreme right-wing pressure groups, as Pegida, Identitair Resistance, NVU, Erkenbrand and Outpost, which are mainly engaged in major platforms like Facebook, Twitter YouTube. The growth of right-wing extremist content on the web pages of these action groups are then in the years virtually stagnated, like the momentary boost of online supporters (followers) these action groups.
Dutch right-wing extremists are now even more out of the extreme right and extreme right-wing activist groups to internationally active online and searching for the right-wing extremist content. They are active in alternative social media platforms as a backup, passing place or in addition to the large more common platforms. alternative forums, platforms en chatapps als 4chan, 8when (formerly 8chan), Endchan, diverse gamefora, Gave (instead of Twitter), Minds one VKontakte (instead of Facebook), Telegram (instead of Whatsapp) en Bitchute (instead of YouTube) are less restrictive in their policies towards extremist or violent content than Facebook, Twitter and Google. However, Also these alternative platforms are under increasing societal and political pressures to the right-wing content to remove. Because of a maximum online reach remain most Dutch extreme right and extreme right-wing activist groups also active on the major platforms Facebook, YouTube, Email an Instagram.
Under the influence of social media reaches the right-extremist ideas online international community. Right-wing extremists from all main Western countries are in contact with each international web forums or chat apps, such as the above-mentioned 4chan, 8when, Endchan in Telegram. Such platforms have since the attacks in Christchurch much attention in the media and governments. The perpetrator made use of these forums, inter alia, to publish his manifesto so that as many people with similar ideas could read this. At these forums is a discourse in which violence is encouraged and glorified, and a fascination emerges for games and weapons. There are often also 'memes’ divided: humorous referred messages racism, homo-, women-, Muslim- and promote anti-Semitism. Right-wing terrorists like Breivik and Tarrant, bomber in 2011 die 77 people killed in Norway, are seen as saints and Hitler and Nazi ideology are often taken as an example. This mainly English international platforms can act as a breeding ground for rapid radicalization and violence. It is evident that Dutch right-wing extremists active in these forums and apps, but it is difficult to get a complete picture of the Dutch presence because of the size and turnover of the messages. The forums are easily accessible. Members can remain anonymous: registration is unnecessary and the location can be disguised.
"Pick up activism 'of Pegida
Small extreme right-wing and right-wing extremist groups remain active with demonstrations and intimidation and radical actions around AZCs and mosques. This raises anti-fascist and left-wing extremist reactions, as against demonstrations. In clashes between the two camps the violence appetite 'left' seems still greater than among right-wing extremists. Extreme right-wing and right-wing extremist demonstrations and actions also provide lasting unrest in Muslim communities. Notable was the presence of Turkish Muslims in Eindhoven with a Moroccan mosque in 15 June during a flyer provocative action of a dozen activists of the extreme right-wing anti-Islam group Pegida. The foreman Pegida, Edwin Wagensveld, was attacked by a number of counter-demonstrators. His action group achieved through "add-activism ', the repeat of small-scale actions, with minimal resources maximum polarization when a group of Muslims in which a lot of attention from the media is generated.
Violence against meeting Kick Out Zwarte Piet
That standing for 'own' around the kids as Sinterklaas can even lead to public violence during a meeting Friday was 9 November evident in The Hague. The background of dozens of supporters of Zwarte Piet as a meeting Kick Out Zwarte Piet (Közp) interfered with a lot of violence is still unknown. This action can not be separated from angry feelings of disgruntled citizens in the Hague, which had suggested the organization of entry to, in line with the national entry, merely using soot wipe helpers. This pursuit led two days of violence already a heated demonstration in Scheveningen, where hundreds of people under the slogan "Bonfire, Christmas or Zwarte Piet, different from our traditions, we do not "come together. Apart from these local component is violence a clear illustration of the hatred that the opponents of the "traditional" Sinterklaas presents to a group of mainly white Dutch. Because a small group of activists announced against Zwarte Piet in the coming years with perseverance to continue to discard all entrance ceremonies of Zwarte Piet, the polarization around this culture contrary to the edges shall not be resolved by relying on moderation and reasonableness.

The introduction of the ban on face-covering clothing in certain public areas - popularly called the "burqa ban" - has so far mainly online had a mobilizing effect. Just before the introduction of the ban on 1 augustus 2019 took to social media attention to the law suddenly sharply after news of the Algemeen Dagblad confirming that a citizen's arrest of nikabdraagsters was authorized by a spokesman for the prosecution. A tweet from Geert Wilders (818.000 followers) where the PVV leader showed understanding for such initiatives led to tensions between online for- and opponents of the law because some right-wing populist social media pages was alluded to civil judgments and other forms of vigilantism. In response jihadists and Salafists came with different (online) Initiatives such as the introduction of 'neighborhood watch'. The pro-ISIS channel Greenb1rds was placed on the day of the introduction of the 'burqa ban' a threat against Netherlands. Also expressed jihadists threats against Geert Wilders. There is no evidence that the people behind these messages pose a real threat.
Some nikabdraagsters chose despite the introduction of the ban demonstrative niqab in public transport travel. This online dynamics caused no further for a big turnout at protests and demonstrations against the 'burqa ban'. Although right-wing populist and right-wing extremist online forums was alluded to private terminal operations to enforce the new law also showed the willingness to act in the public arena so far not large. In the weeks following the introduction of the ban were Salafists and Jihadists Muslims online mobilization on this theme, for example by online 'exposen "of alleged perpetrators who nikabdraagsters difficult (would) to fall. Partly because the national and municipal authorities a uniform story about the importance of enforcing the law, the law remains a topic about which can be strong social polarization. Extreme forces on both sides (Salafist-jihadi and right-wing extremist) can and will continue in the future profile on this theme because of the low number nikabdraagsters (circa 200) few people gets concrete. Due to the polarized (online) landscape, the "burqa ban" during a possible escalation rise in a public space above a problem of public order and a broad ideological debate ignite.

Beschrijving:

From Pittsburgh to Poway and Charleston to El Paso, white supremacist extremists (WSEs) pose a clear terrorist threat to the United States. And while extremist groups operating on American soil are often labeled or categorized as domestic terrorist organizations, this report will demonstrate that they maintain links to transnational networks of like-minded organizations and individuals, from Australia, Canada, Russia, South Africa, and elsewhere. The danger of terrorism is growing in the United States, just as it is elsewhere in the world, with white supremacist extremists strengthening transnational networks and even imitating the tactics, techniques, and procedures of groups like al-Qaeda and the Islamic State (IS). These networks share approaches to recruitment, financing, and propaganda, with Ukraine emerging as a hub in the broader network of transnational white supremacy extremism, attracting foreign recruits from all over the world.
