It's not that "we have done so much damage", it's just that terrorism exists, full stop. Europe has a long history of home-grown terrorism - Paris in particular had a lot of various groups attacking it in the 80s, for example. The US has it's own home-grown terrorism as well, the stereotype being the KKK.
- thomasrossi 11y agoThere are indeed plenty of third-generation Algerians in France. The ones I know are happy being in France though, I am not sure it is home-grown, it has been planned with local help, but the source was tracked in Turkey, then lost. I think they have a good protocol to handle communication outside internet.
- vacri 11y agoWhen I say European home-grown terrorism, I'm not thinking of recently arrived demographics, but groups like Irish and Basque separatists.
