What foiled Taylor Swift concert attack plot says about Daesh threat to Europe

  • On August 7, three young people were detained by the Austrian police, which was the one in front of the Happel Happel Stadium in Vienna.
  • The conspiracy reflects a previous attack at a European concert venue and virtually proved that Daish is inviting young people who have been alienated.

Aten's: Earlier this month, people who respect Taylor Swift were discouraged by the news that the performance in the Austrian city of Vienna was postponed for the threat of terrorism by Daish supporters.

On August 7, the Austrian authorities detained three young people, 19, 17, and 15 years old. They knew that Swift had participated in a terrorist plan to attack Ernst Happel Stadium, which was scheduled to be performed on August 8.

After searching for Austria's home, a 1 9-yea r-old suspect with roots in Severmacedonia, police noticed a large amount of ice tools, materials for preparing bombs, fake funds, and Propaganda.

Despite being detained, Swift's promoter Barakuda Music has decided to cancel the thre e-day tour of the Eras Tour Star.

The conclusion was, especially wise, considering the pattern of Daish attacking the European concert hall. In 2015, the group killed 90 people at the Bataklan Theater in Paris, France. Two years later, Daich's suicide bomber killed 22 people at the British Manchester Ariana Grande.

A while ago, in March this year, the Central Asian branch of the Horror San (IS-K) of Islamic country (IS-K) attacked the capital city of Crocus City Hall on a large scale, killing 145 people and injured more than 500 people. did.

However, what is surprising about Vienna's conspiracy is that, for example, after losing territory in Iraq and Syria in 2019, without paying attention to international initiatives to eliminate the management, followers in the western countries. Is Daish's ability to continue recruiting.

"The young people who want to do something in Europe and do something in Europe, for example, to Arab News, a political scholar in Vienna, and an extreme and decisive expert. I am not extremely surprised to be there.

The collapse of Daish as a community plan in Iraq and Syria may have expanded due to the threat of terrorist attacks in Europe due to the fact that people moved to Syria to participate in Jesus in 2014 and 2015. I think it's very expensive. There is no community plan today, but the organization still exists. That's why young people were attracted to this ideology. "

However, Schmaidinger believes that, for example, Swift's cancellation in Vienna, for example, could trigger Daish to threaten the same event in the future, and could have been a mistake.

"The Austrian police are still catching the suspect and there is no reason to postpone the event." This cancellation is at least a propaganda victory for Daish.

But as authorities desperately try to prevent a repeat of the terrorist attacks in Paris, Manchester and the capital, experts say coordinated attacks of this scale are likely to be rare. Most Daesh-inspired propaganda, especially in recent years in the West, is the work of radicalized individuals acting on their own initiative.

"There are different degrees of affiliation and loyalty to Daesh," Mia Bloom, a doctoral student in communications and Middle East studies at Georgia University of Science, told Arab News.

"They emphasize Daesh's 'baya' (pledge of righteousness), but that doesn't necessarily mean Daesh has actually accepted it.

"There are people online who, for example, watch beheading videos and consume propaganda and engage in constructive and violent attacks and conversations.

"This is completely different to what we saw at the Bataclan or Charlie Hebdo in France, or in Dhaka, Bangladesh, which were funded by Daesh and broadcast live on GoPro cameras by Daesh."

Europe is not alone in battling the ever-present threat of Daesh. But in the US, there were fewer terrorist attacks in 2015. In San Bernardino, California, where 16 people were killed, the gunman declared his allegiance to Daesh on Facebook. A year later, a mass shooting at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida, left 49 people dead.

But there is no evidence that Daesh actually intended both attacks.

Daesh published infographics about their successes from 2014 to 2019, Bloom says. They published a map of the United States with the terrorist attacks they were responsible for, placing Orlando in California and San Bernardino in Florida.

"If you don't understand where an offensive attack was carried out, you're likely not responsible for it."

IN NUMBERS

- 28 completed, failed or thwarted terrorist attacks in the EU in 2022.

- 380 arrests by EU member states for terrorism-related crimes by 2022.

Last week, he accepted that he was guilty of trying to participate in two Somali refugees DAESH living in Arizona. Farmer hoped that he would be arrested in 2019 and would go to the Sinai Peninsula in the most likely Egyptian, and one of them said with the patient to freeze him with "a man who cuts his head". Ta.

According to the NBC's June report, the Ministry of Motorization has revealed 400 immigrants from Central Asia, which had the opportunity to bring Dash a-related smuggling to a US network.

Some of them have been discovered, but the ministry does not understand the location of 50 minimum up to the same time.

On June 5, 2024, when the immigrant group entered the United States from Mexico to Jacumba Hot Springs, California, a US customs and border guard investigators took immigrants. The US Ministry of Conservation has investigated that Daish terrorists are likely to be smuggled in the United States. (AFP = current affairs)

According to Lorenzo Vidino, George Washington Research Institute, in an interview with Arab News, "Through the huge share of illegal immigrants, that is, the huge share of the southern fringe, people who are involved in Daish to some extent have been inflated. There is. "

"This does not mean that all people imported by smuggling were immigrants from Daish, but at least the smuggling network is related to Daiish, as a result of these routes. Some people arrested in the United States had a reliable connection with Daish. "

Daish "has the ability to penetrate the western states because of the border, but he seems to think that there are overwhelming number of sel f-reporteders born in their own country.

"Looking at the historic terrorist attacks found in the United States in the past decade, most of them are from Americans, not illegally imported from the southern border," he says.

More than five years have passed since Daisch lost in the last territorial fortress in eastern Syria, and most of them are wondering which groups are actually welcoming recruits. According to Schmodingara sentences, the only condition is sometimes performed.

"The young people who join friends are really diverse," he says.

"They feel a strong sense of alienation from their own society. The causes of this alienation are varied. It may be psychological, it may be related to racism or anti-Muslim sentiment in Europe. It may be related to sexual orientation goals.

"There are several boundary conditions, but they are caused by a sense of alienation from European society."

Furthermore, "Daesh became visible at the moment when they discovered the significance, accessibility and possibility of getting involved in things. As a result, many people feel powerless. They feel that they can gain control by, for example, committing terrorism or threatening European society. They are taking ownership of their personal situation.

"Especially for people who feel completely alienated and powerless, this is a great opportunity to empower and empower their own families. I think one of the most important challenges for these people is that there is nothing constructive other than humanistic options."

While Daesh and other extremist groups remain a threat to Western countries, there are ways to disrupt their offensive capabilities by eliminating their hideouts in ungoverned and unstable places around the world.

In northeastern Syria, tens of thousands of Daesh-related people are being held in prisons and camps under the protection of the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). However, violent acts and escape attempts are common in these spaces.

European sympathizers are also organizing fundraising campaigns to help girls linked to Daesh in these camps remain in self-isolation, including secretly escaping to freedom.

Siyamand Ali, chairman of the Kurdish-led National Defense Forces, part of the SDF, told Arab News that there are areas in northern Syria where Daesh and other militant groups can "continue to train, gather resources, issue orders and produce propaganda."

Ali wrote that the tensions between the SDF, Syrian regime forces and Turkish forces in northeast Syria continue to have a destabilizing effect, raising the possibility of a Daesh resurgence in the region.

Schmidinger believes that in addition to eliminating Daish's international networks and hideaway, it can further reduce the risk of future attacks in Europe by implementing public policies that promote social integration and inclusiveness. There is.

"You can't stop completely. Every time you will meet people who are attracted to extremist organizations like Daich in one corner of society.

"But the numbers can be reduced by reducing the sense of alienation from society. You don't feel like you have any chance to change something. "

"They don't need an extremist organization that makes you feel that there are any opportunities to change something in society."
