Terrorists focus on western Europe
Frontline press release
It's about 2:30 AM, so I don't have much time to write.
In short: terrorists are having a hard time getting into the US (yay! Good work Homeland Security Dept.!), so they have decided to focus on western Europe, instead. Britain alone has already stopped about a dozen planned attacks.
Because western Europe has about 16 million Muslims, some of them are swayed by jihadist radicalism, and may be working independently from al-Qaeda and similar international organizations. So, the threat to Europe is partially, or mostly, from those who already live inside the borders. This means that Europe will have to work very, very hard to prevent any large-scale attack, because it must monitor its own citizens, rather than just those who attempt to enter the countries.
