Europol: ISIS to carry out attacks in EU in near future

"The so-called "Islamic State" (IS) group is likely to carry out terror attacks in the European Union in the near future, Europol said in a report on Friday.

The Sunni extremist group has "both the will and the capability" to strike soft and hard targets in Europe, especially in those countries participating in the anti-IS coalition, the EU police agency said.

"EU Member States that participate in the anti-IS coalition are regarded by IS as legitimate targets," it said, pointing to particular risk in France, Belgium, Germany,the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.

The report warns that as IS is weakened and defeated in Syria and Iraq, foreign fighters may return to Europe with their families, posing a long-term security challenge. Other IS members may move to Libya, which has become a foreign fighter destination as well, potentially using it as a springboard to carry out attacks in North Africa and Europe.

"Given the high numbers of radicalized Europeans who have joined IS in the conflict area, counted in the thousands, their en masse or even sporadic return would represent a long-term and highly difficult security challenge for the EU," Europol said. "Estimates from some intelligence services indicate several dozen people directed by IS may be currently present in Europe with a capability to commit terrorist attacks."

"Indiscriminate attacks have a very powerful effect on the public in general, which is one of the main goals of terrorism: to seriously intimidate a population," the report said. "This preference for soft targets means that attacking critical infrastructure such as power grids, nuclear facilities and transportation hubs is currently not a priority."

It's so weird. The only question is not if something happens, rather when something happens. :ohno:

Yup we have known this for ages, the world is a scary place and we have a evil toddler running America/the world from Jan 

 the best people can do in Europe is go on with their lives and be vigilant. Otherwise it's not living spending all your time worrying in fear about "if" "when" it will happen. 

Right now I hope people and media focus on all the poor children starving to death in Syria currently >>>>

My country took over 1 million refugees, I think we are not the ones who should focus more on the misery in Syria, because we already do. And you are right we shouldn't worry. We should be aware and suspicious though.

Dear ISIS,

If you're targeting the European Union. Please remember we no longer wish to be a part of it.

Sincerely,

United Kingdom

The civilians in Syria need aid, sure. But their problems aren't linked to the IS issue, and neither is Trump.  

This post is a jumble of unrelated issues.

like a cat in a sil, I observe life, moving and still. My words give a clue,look inside to see whats true

This is why Marché de Noël is cancelled for me this year.. or I'll go to a small village one.. there is a high chance that it'll happen in one of the Christmas Markets in Europe..

It's kinda security less or it's easy to find a security hole..

Especially in France, they like, don't know what is it security.. I'm entering the mall with a bag and the I had to go to the security guy to check me because he didn't care about me and my bag lol

So sploosh your juice all over me you Riverboy
