Nothing I ever wrote was as nearly meaningless as this:
"To prevent violent extremism, we need to enhance protective resources in refugee and immigrant families and communities to ameliorate their risk exposures," says Stevan Weine, START researcher. "This calls for utilizing a public health prevention approach to enhancing protective resources which utilizes multilevel, multidimensional and contextual strategies. The development and evaluation of new preventive policies and interventions is necessary to promote community resilience to violent extremism in diaspora communities in the United States."
I think he means "we need to work with immigrant communities and groups to deter extremism."

That quote is indicative of the problem with think tanks and contract 'studies.' They become self justifying and self perpetuating exercises in wordsmithing...

It's also representative of a degree of academic arrogance and condescension that will never achieve any success with most immigrant communities.
