We had a great meeting with the Director today and he is very supportive of the website. We are delayed a couple of weeks in order to conduct some inter-agency briefings, but anticipate we will launch the site around the week of 11f16. We did get some unfortunate press in the New York Times and Washington Post as a result of criticisms by several groups: the Muslim Public Affairs Council, the Arab-American Anti-Discrimination Committee, Sikh Coalition, and KARAMAH Muslim Women Lawyers for Justice. Please know that their characterizations of the website were very inaccurate and the reporters themselves had not seen the website. The response of these groups is not representative of the feedback we have received overall. We did focus groups with nearly 50 groups and 200 individuals and their response was almost universally positive. We?ll get some FAQs out to the ?eld prior to the website?s launch and are very confident that the site speaks for itself. We should avoid encouraging additional press coverage until folks can actually see the site.

This was taken directly from the lexicon guide, but regrettably that guide contains an error. The phrase ?or criminal? from the above de?nition permits this de?nition to sweep so broadly as to include a person committing voter fraud in furtherance of his political ideology. Surely, that would not constitute "violent extremism." be As such, I believe this needs to be revised. At the same time, it?s my understanding there is a new Tiger Team 137.: definition. log both of you up here to encourage a discussion among you as to which is the better term to use. Also copying?as well. Also, with respect to the portal, note there is a typo in the title for that ?rst slide where it says, ?What is l.i'iolent Extremeism.? It should be spelled ?extremism.?

Reportedly, this website, called ?Don?t Be A Puppet? is meant to5 be used by teachers and students to help the FBI prevent the violent extremism of youth? According to the Washington Post, teachers and students in multiple Nor-them Virginia school districts were invited to preview the website. The Post also reported that the FBI would reach out to schools to see if they were interested 1n using the site within classrooms.ti Reports indicate that the FBI rs aiming for the site to be used 111 civics, social studies, and government classes. According to the US. Department of Education, a refrain from educators is that they want to work with parents and students from diverse backgrounds and cultures, and to develop a shared reaponsibility for children's outcomes between home and school. As a former educator, i understand a teacher may be the only person that some students can trust. Also, while a teacher may be best-positioned to notice changes in a student?s behavior, it is hard to see how having that teacher participate in a Federal law enforcement program would not chill relationships with students or, for that matter, undermine a Supportive learning environment. Put simply, turning teachers into intelligence gathers and investigators has questionable value as a strategy for countering tenorisrn or violent extremism and may actually interfere with students involved in a range of risky behavior or in crisis turning away harm that one person, a teacher, who might be able to make a difference. Though I understand that plans for the website have been temporarily suspended, it is critical that you, as the leader of the Department of Justice, give personal attention to not only this program but also to the entirety EVE activities.

The ADIC, Diego Rodriguez, and SAC Greg Ehrie {who happened to be down at HQ involved in some ofthe initial stages of developing this project) addressed our Muslim Leaders? Council, after which I walked them through the ?Don't be a Pu ppet" program. To say that it was well-received would be an understatement. They all felt that it was exactly the kind of thing they wanted to see in the public and private [including Islamic) schools. The only suggestion that they had, was that on the b5 They? re eager to go out and dispel the rumors and promote it within their own-communities. They also hope that perhaps a version for even younger individuals might be developed. One member, and African Muslim, informed us that there?s a ?Peace in Schools? bill in New York State right now that includes a similar, but not as well done program re: CVE. He?s hoping that the local politicians at some point could see the presentation and also suggested that we bring in groups of teachers and community leaders to introduce the program to them prior to its release to the public. It was the general consensus that they would like to see the FBI in front of the issue that popped up in the news about it. That they don?t want to see it held up because of self-proclaimed activists who are providing incorrect information to the media. One of our members who is very active in his community, went so far as to say that if we changed the one slide, he would reach out to his many media contacts and start talking up the program immediately.

We can discuss the best strategy for doing this. Just a couple scheduling considerations - Most of the teams working on this will be doing other briefings the later part of next week, so any congressional briefings should be early next week or the following week {or later}. Second, when scheduling demos of the website, more time is preferable to less. There is a lot of content to go through and once people start asking questions it can be challenging to cover evewthing.
