Germany: Islamist terror threatens Europe, Israel
Germany's intelligence chief said on Thursday that the success of Germany and other countries in hunting down terrorists has done little to reduce the threat "Islamic terrorism" poses to Europe and Israel.
"In spite of numerous successful hunts for terrorists, the terrorist threat situation has eased only superficially. The bomb attacks in Madrid and London are clear evidence that Europe is no longer just a recruitment and financing area but has become a target of Islamic terrorism," Ernst Uhrlau, head of Germany's BND foreign intelligence agency told a conference on Islamic extremism organised by the American Jewish Congress.
