Radicalization Watch Project
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Radicalization Watch Project (RWP) is an independent weekly broadcast focusing on radical network activities worldwide. Hosted by the Center for Advanced Defense Studies (CADS) in Washington, DC and directed by the Center's Research Committee, including Dr. Mathieu Guidère and Ammar Qusaibaty, the project maintains a database of documents generated by extremists and radical organizations.
[edit] Project Purpose
As envisioned by the Center's founder, Dr. Newton Howard, and Dr. Guidère, RWP is intended to provide security professionals with situational awareness of threat environments through indicators and pattern analysis, video exploitation and media analysis applying cultural intelligence methodologies. Designed to provide the requisite information to stay abreast of the latest terrorist threats, the database is available to intelligence, military and federal law enforcement agencies; U.S. government, state and local agencies, as well as corporations and non-governmental organizations.
