The existence of Israel is at the moment in no danger. Israel is completely backed up by the US, the most powerful nation in the world. Even Russia supports the war on terrorists. The Arabic world is hopelessly divided.

Terrorist acts, especially on innocent citizen, is the lowest of the lowest. But the suicide aspect of it is extreme. Only in extreme circumstances people will act like that. What are these extreme circumstances? Thirty years of occupation and no outlook for a better future.

Come on, be real. Did you often hear of a young western girl who voluntarily starts wearing a paranga (thanks for the word), who voluntarily locks herself up in the house, who voluntarily listens to religious Muslim music (when it exists)? Young Muslims on the other hand are everyday drawn by all of the western temptations like music, western clothes, food (yes, no joke, McDonald, it’s sad but it’s true) and freedom of course. I can imagine that a Muslim father, who wants the best for his children, gets confused.

Are you joking? It’s the other way around. The Muslims in Europe will easily be absorbed by Western society. In fact a greater danger then fundamentalists are young Muslims who get lost in drugs and completely drift away.

You don’t seem to have much faith in democracy. The world is completely dominated by Western democracies. One figure: 95% of all energy is consumed in the democratic countries (with only 20% of the world population). The division is between the haves and the have-nots.
