There are geopolitical reasons for the attacks in Europe?
So the day after the attacks Brussels Europe still proceed in any order, while many states decide to close the border. If
this measure may be understandable to give a signal to public opinion
on the desire to exert more control, measurement, if analyzed
objectively, it seems not entirely useful, because the latest attacks
were carried out by residents of Belgium. Certainly
for France the value is different, given that it was from Belgium are
the bombers parties in Paris and that the links with the perpetrators of
terrorist acts are undeniable Brussels. The
joint statement of the European leaders talk of attack on democracy,
and so it was, which calls for the defense of European values. These
words, in their true intrinsic concept, are likely to be only
discounted sentences, if they are not followed by a profound change in
the practical way of dealing with before the disaster, followed by a
series of preventive planning. In
Paris, the recurring phrase is "we are at war," certainly not about a
conflict in the classic sense of the term, however, the climate is being
established generates a deep concern which adds to the feeling of
complete vulnerability: no one seems to be safe and all are potential targets. Those
who practice these attacks deeply knows the mechanisms of terror and
the state of constant fear itself becomes a weapon aimed against Western
ways of life, a weapon that is not only the consequence of bloodthirsty
acts, but a real goal to reach through them. At
this stage, immediately following the attacks, should be put in the
foreground the urgency: the population must be calmed with constant and
visible presence of the armed forces, which have not only the
supervisory function, but also to give back misplaced sense of security. At
the same time investigative action should bring tangible results as
quickly as possible, so as to highlight the progress made in contrast to
terrorist groups, not only the authors of the attacks, but also
potential ones. Long
times over five months for the arrest of an offender should not be
repeated, especially if the attacker is not released from its usual
places. But
this is still not enough, should be made an effort to understand the
real intentions that are beyond the scope of putting insecurity,
political reasons that are not clear, as it has to identifying those
responsible also in a historical sense of this situation. The
coincidence that religious extremism has increased with the
construction of mosques financed by countries where the Islamic religion
belonging to the Wahhabi Salafi trend is coincident with the structures
of power is not a factor to be reckoned with. These
religious centers were the catalyst for the widespread discontent of
the Arab inhabitants of the suburbs and have channeled to radical
concepts in adhering feelings, no matter whether the actual behavior is
not often coincide with the precepts provided, what it is counted
is that there was an identification that allowed the religious leaders a
wide margin of maneuver and influence over these entities. The
same donor countries of mosques in Europe have probably supported, at
least initially, the formations that then landed in the Islamic state,
and the relations between these states and the caliphate, have always
been ambiguous. The
connection, as we see there and it could be verified, if there were the
political and economic reasons to curb these investigations. Certainly
find the perpetrators of the attacks and their possible instigators is
important, but at the same time, it would be even more crucial to know
if there is a plan drawn up at a higher level. The
fact that many of these countries are allies, also considered US
fundamentals and the West, has so far prevented a full and objective
analysis of the phenomenon, but this is no longer be postponed. It
is necessary, that is, wondering if the alliance relations with certain
countries are sustainable and affordable, not only from the economic
point of view, but especially from that of Western geopolitical and
stability. This might be the only way to solve the underlying problem of Islamic terrorism in Europe and also in the United States; but to do this will require a major political effort, including the need to revise established diplomatic relations. At
the same time within individual states certain religious structures
must be canceled for the benefit of those moderate, to which must be
requested a greater commitment to Western values in mutual respect.
