I also think you are mistaken. The roots of modern "Islamic terrorism" seem to lie either in actions of the United States or actions of its client state, Israel. You can't cure something like this by having a go at the symptoms: you need to look at root causes. This the USA is adamently averting its gaze from. Partly because it doesn't wish to acknowledge responsibility and partly because the "War on Terror" gives it camouflage to pursue strategic purposes in the Middle East. I see no European ends being served by allying ourselves with the USA, which acts only on its own behalf, and whose word cannot be trusted at all. In addition, we earn the contempt of the rest of the world for being flunkys and lackeys to the USA.
