The possibility of a terrorist attack in Europe is a never ending danger. In the Netherlands the police were able to foil a possible attack by five men. These five men were trying to get in contact with people for AK-47's, grenades, bomb making materials, and ammunition. One of the men was previously arrested for trying to leave the country to pursue fighting in the middle east. What makes this relevant to the IR community is that tensions in Europe against refugees is at a high point. Many far-right people in Europe blame the refugee's for bringing terrorism with them, even if they are not the ones committing it. It is also important because it shows that we still need to have an increase of surveillance on those that have ties or intentions of joining terrorist organizations.
