Originally posted by InExile View PostSome European countries like the UK and Belgium seem to have a proliferation of radical mosques and recruiters for extremist organizations from which ISIS supporters are drawn which appears to be relatively absent in other countries like Germany even if they have a larger muslim population.
Arabs in Europe tend to not form comparable groups, at least any of similar size.

Originally posted by tantalus View PostI think it's easy to overstate social integration as a bigger problem in terrorism than it is. Failure for muslims to integrate, and or be integrated provided countless negative outcomes in society, and we should do our best to find solutions, especially if the Americans have something to offer in terms of policy, but fundamentally, a rigid interpretation of the Quran and sharia are not compatible in the west, and people with these views are likely to turn violent (edit. "hostile" would be a more appropriate word choice, as those who turn violent are so few) on us.
Jordan. Next door but not exactly with a radical regime. Ten times more than Chechnya who i'd have thought would be closer to the top.
Tunisia in top spot in terms of numbers, only survivor of the arab spring. The arab spring began in Tunisia. 6 times more than Libya that got bombed. Morocco is another weird one.
Lebanon, haven't they had enough crap already.
They Saudis are going to have trouble.
Are these countries failing at integration too...Last edited by Double Edge; 28 Mar 16,, 22:29.

Heck, they had an incursion a couple of days ago in Macedonia, but it appears that Macedonian police was able to handle it, that is why I've asked Doc if everything is ok with him.No such thing as a good tax - Churchill
To make mistakes is human. To blame someone else for your mistake, is strategic.

From facebook , but IP addresses and MAK addresses are easily got to find the senders ?
Germany is on alert after affiliates of the Islamic State group posted messages across social networks on Wednesday calling on German Muslims to carry out Brussels-style attacks.
The militants suggested striking the offices of Chancellor Angela Merkel and an airport near the former capital of Bonn, while denouncing non-Muslim Germans as “enemies of Allah.”
In one post, a picture of the Cologne-Bonn airport is show, with the text: “What your brothers in Belgium were able to do, you can do too.”
Another shows the German chancellery in Berlin with the caption: “Germany is a battlefield.”
A third shows a German military jet alongside supposed images of Syrian civilians with bloodied faces. The headline reads: “Will you continue to grieve or will you finally act?”
The German air force was part of a US-led coalition that carried out airstrikes in Syria in 2015.
The incitement comes a week after explosions at a Metro station and airport in Belgium left 32 dead.
However, the German Federal Police said the posts have not changed the country’s “security assessment.”
“We are aware of this material and our experts are checking it,” a police spokeswoman told Reuters. “It is clear that Germany is the focus of international terrorism and that attacks could happen, but this material doesn’t change our security assessment.Last edited by tankie; 01 Apr 16,, 13:12.
