  12. The Threat • Domestic but regionally or even globally linked & motivated • Ideological driven • The central leadership plays an important & underestimated role • Fascination with death, i.e. mass casualties • Does not exclude non-coalition member states • Media and Opportunity driven • Hospitality • Events • Always surveillance driven, always test runs! • Grande scale • Media impact operations

  13. The strategic picture for Europe • Global linkages, local (national) terror • Need to counter the militant ideology • Radicalization of schooling under the cover of “cultural diversification”; • Recruiting & radicalization starts early • Alienation of domestic fringe groups grabbing militant Islam & providing a purpose • Engage the moderate, conservative Muslim voice • Expose terror as it is. Violent, deadly and misguided • Study in depth the social networks

  14. Trends • 33.4 % Islamist groups 51 • 4 % Islamic fronts supporting terror groups 6 • 11.5% Arab Nationalist 17 • 4% Christian terror groups 6 • 18.4 Marxists/Leninists/Leftist 28 • 16% Nationalist movements 24 • 13% Others 20 • Total 152
