| Post subject: | More violence in the Netherlands |
http://www.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/europe/11 ... index.html Well, there goes the myth of the "tolerant" Europe. I guess everyone cane be tolerant when 99% of the population is the same as you are, but the moment you get some ethnic tension, bombs start going off. There's a piece of the article that's troubling to me, though: The Tarieq Ibnu Zyad Islamic school, said to have links with a mosque that has allegedly been a gathering place for radicals, also suffered a minor attack a year ago. Dekkers said police had visited Islamic schools in the city, but had not decided on additional security measures. So the police knew the school was a gathering place for terrorists, but hadn't made up its mind on what to do about it? |

If they knew of a gathering place for terrorists, they might want to not shut it down, but instead electonically eavesdrop and/or use that knowledge to infiltrate. Maybe they were doing that, maybe not, but it's a valid possibility. |

Though, they have to worry about home-grown terrorists who try to blow up mosques first and foremost. |
