To understand what is happening in Europe today, we need to understand the full story and how it unfolded. History didn't start in July 2005 with the London bombings and neither did it start on Friday the 13th in France. If we don't look at the reasons behind these terrorist atrocities then how the hell do we plan a peaceful future for our children?
And lets get one thing straight, I make no excuse for the terrorists as you tried to imply, but I understand the reasons behind the terrorism. They are not doing this because we have some asset they want are they? its not an invasion is it?

Understanding them and basically saying that they have a reason for their actions is (imo) making excuses for them.. There's no "reason" for killing innocent people that have nothing to do with what's going on in the middle east.
