New Developments in European Terror Action

The European Union has thwarted a plot by Islamic terrorist groups to bomb and attack areas in Germany, England and France. The article states that the threat developed in an area on the border of Pakistan. Also a suspected American terrorist was arrested in Spain from Algeria who was apparently funding Al-Qaida operations in North Africa. The fact that the European Union was making strides on controlling and containing Islamic terrorist groups goes along with the article, "Clash of Civilizations" which states that Western ideals and Islamic movements are going to have difficult time getting along and predicts unfriendly relations between the two different cultures. It is also interesting that Spain arrested a US citizen suspected of terrorism. How do we treat these people who are basically traitors that move across oceans to help fund and progress the functions of Islamic middle eastern terrorist groups. Europe has dealt with the most harsh terrorist attacks over the past 5 years as London experienced a bus bombing which also blew up a few cars and of course the train attacks on Madrid killing over 191 people.
