Homegrown terrorism is a growing concern, especially in Europe as the Muslim populations there become more bold with each passing moment. The prominent opinion regarding Europe is that the likelihood she will be under Sharia law in the future is an inevitability.
As concerns rise regarding the possibility of terrorist attacks in various European nations, authorities have made it a priority to seek out and expose homegrown terrorist threats.
French police, in one such investigation, has arrested 12 people in two raids in southern France. While terror plots emerge as a reality in Europe, and al-Qaeda remains active in terrorist activities, raids in Marseilles and Avignon led to nine arrests and a seizure of guns and ammunition by the French police. In another raid, three other men were arrested, two in Marseilles and one in Bordeaux.
As a result of a history of appeasement of the Muslims by European leaders, and the current American President, al-Qaeda has been emboldened, and is using jihadist sympathizers who hold citizenship in Western countries to assist their operatives in planning terrorist plots in Western Europe.
From the raids, it has turned out that every person arrested has ties to Islamic terrorist groups.
A travel alert for Western Europe by the United States remains in effect.
France has issued warnings about al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, an arm of al-Qaeda that is based in North Africa and is considered a graver threat than Osama bin Laden.
