First International Conference on Radicalisation and Political Violence was a conference on terrorism and 'radicalisation' held in London on 17 and 18 January 2008. It was also the launch event for the International Centre for the Study of Radicalisation and Political Violence (ISCR), a terrorism research institute based at King's College London.

Controversy over invitation to alleged war criminal
The conference, which took place on 17 and 18 January 2008, attracted controversy over a month earlier when it was revealed that Avi Dichter, the former head of the Shin Bet internal security agency, had planned to attend, but that Israel's foreign and justice ministries had advised him not to in case he was arrested for alleged war crimes. [1] Dichter headed Shin Beth when it helped plan the assassination of Hamas military commander Saleh Shehada in July 2002. The operation killed Shehada's wife and nine children. [2]
Government platform
The Avi Dichter controversy aside, the most newsworthy aspect of the event was a speech by the UK Home Secretary Jacqui Smith on the morning of the first day [3] launching the government's new anti-terror intiative. Speaking to the BBC's Radio 4 Today programme before her speech, Smith said there were specific examples of websites that "clearly fall under the category of gratifying terrorism" and that, "There is growing evidence people may be using the internet both to spread messages and to plan specifically for terrorism." [4] The government's new intiative coincided with ISCR's first major research project 'Countering Online Radicalisation', and no doubt ISCR's launch and the launch of the government's new terrorism intiative were deliberately timed.
