    Report CFSP WATCH 2005

    CFSP WATCH 2005 – Slovenia – by Sabina Kajnc1 0. Methodological observations The attitudes of the Slovenian Government in this report are extrapolated from the official documents of the Government.2 The views expressed in speeches and interviews by the Slovenian Foreign Minister, Dr. Dimitrij Rupel, as well as those stemming from press releases of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (the Foreign Ministry) have also been included.3 Attitudes of the Foreign Ministry to which it is referred in the report derive from the survey that was sent to the Foreign ministry in January. The news from the Slovenian Press Agency – STA, and commentaries in the three main daily newspapers, Delo, Dnevnik and Veèer, have been analysed. Whereas the issues concerning the referenda in France and the Netherlands were well covered, the more detailed comments on the issues concerning CFSP/ESDP are absent from political commentaries in the Slovenian media. Public opinion observations from “Politbarometer” have also been considered in the preparation of this report.4 1. What are the priorities for your government in CFSP in 2005? What are the key issues for your country in 2005 (especially with regard to the negative referenda on the Constitutional Treaty in France and the Netherlands; after the recent EU enlargement and on behalf of the perspective of the upcoming accession round(s))? Priorities: As a first observation it is worth mentioning that the Government’s official document on Priorities of its work in the EU, in comparison with the previous year, pays much more attention to CFSP/ESDP and to broader issues of the EU and international community.

    A Broad Spectrum of Signs of Islamist Radicalisation

    PERSPECTIVES ON TERRORISM Volume 14, Issue 3 A Broad Spectrum of Signs of Islamist Radicalisation and Extremism in a Country without a Single Terrorist Attack: The Case of Slovenia by Iztok Prezelj & Klemen Kocjancic Abstract Studies in radicalisation, extremism and terrorism generally focus on the most visible and dangerous groups or attacks, frequently leaving smaller cases overlooked. This article looks at the case of one country that has no publicly known terrorist group and has not experienced a single terrorist attack (Slovenia) and shows that this ‘non-case’ is actually an example of a very broad spectrum of basic and supportive forms of Islamist extremism. The article identifies and studies instances of the transit of foreign Islamists, their finances and arms, provides examples of local foreign fighters and their return, identifies NGOs with radical agendas and attempts at recruitment, as well as threats made to local authorities, training under the cover of a social event, the deportation of extremists, and a foiled terrorist attack. Most of these indicators are linked to Jihadi and Islamist sources of power based in Bosnia. Overlooking and underestimating cases like Slovenia could have serious consequences in terms of prevention and preparedness. Keywords: Islamist radicalisation, extremism, jihadism, recruitment, terrorism, foreign fighters, training, foiled attack, Slovenia, Balkans Introduction The goal of this article is to explore the forms and the spectrum of Islamist radicalisation faced by an EU member state that has not had a single successful terrorist attack on its soil and where no officially recognised terrorist group is actively working against the country. Researchers and analysts normally study cases with the most visible problems (terrorism and radicalisation in our case), yet it sometimes makes sense to look at—and perhaps learn also from—cases where the problem is less apparent.

Clark today announced that 55 law school and college students have joined the Bronx District Attorney’s Office this summer as interns. District Attorney Clark said, “We are happy to welcome this summer’s diverse group of interns to our Office. Our internship program gives students an opportunity to work in one of the busiest prosecutorial offices in the nation. It is a robust program that provides future potential lawyers with an inside look at the criminal justice system. I believe they will have a rewarding experience with us this summer.” This summer’s group of interns come from 18 law schools and 11 colleges throughout the nation. The Office today welcomed 39 law school students and 16 undergraduate students; 36 are female and 19 are male. Among the interns, 32 of them speak a second language, with 18 of them being Spanish speakers. Throughout the summer internship, students will experience first-hand how the justice system operates in the Bronx. Under a Student Practice Order, law school interns can perform some tasks of an attorney in court. Interns have been assigned to multiple bureaus throughout the Office, including Trial Bureaus, Homicide, Domestic Violence, Child Abuse/Sex Crimes, and Narcotics and Gangs Investigation.
