Hollywood's Barrie Osborne, producer of "The Matrix" and "The Lord of the Rings", is making a $150 million movie on the life of the prophet Mohammed.

Channel 4 has announced plans to broadcast a sequel to its investigation into extremism in mainstream British mosques, “Undercover Mosque”.

The original Dispatches programme, broadcast in January 2007, sparked controversy when undercover reporters revealed preachers condemning non-Muslims and integration into British society, praising the Taliban for killing British soldiers and calling for the death of homosexuals.

The Centre and the Henry Jackson Society today co-hosted a lunch-time seminar for Walid Phares, director of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies in Washington and leading academic in the field of global terrorist movements, democratization, human rights, and Middle Eastern history.

In a wide-ranging, extensive and thought-provoking discussion for opinion formers and leading counter terrorist experts, Phares spelt out his the nature of the future jihadist threat, as well as the most effective ways in combating this threat in order to make the world safe for free and democratic societies.

A report written by Professor Anthony Glees, soon to be published by the Centre for Social Cohesion, has received coverage in the weekend press.

Both the Sunday Telegraph and the Daily Mail reported on Glees’s study into the extremist ideas being taught at Islamic study centres on a variety of British university campuses.

Graham Fuller, the CIA’s former head of long-term strategic planning, writes in the lead story of this month’s issue of Foreign Policy, a global politics magazine, that a terrorist attack on the US like 9/11 would likely have occurred even if the “Muslim religion had never existed”.

“In the bluntest of terms, would there have been a 9/11 without Islam?” asks Fuller, the adjunct professor of History at the Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, Canada.

Ofcom, the UK's broadcasting regulator, has ruled that Channel 4's documentary 'Undercover Mosque' was a "legitimate investigation". Ofcom dismissed police claims that the programme-makers had intended to "encourage or incite" violence against Muslims.

The hour-long documentary, aired in January, reported that preachers in numerous British mosques had incited violence against women and voiced support for Taliban attacks on British troops.

Last night's episode of Question Time featured Douglas Murray, Director of the Centre for Social Cohesion.
