A US report has concluded that Muslim residents in Europe who train as terrorists in Pakistan are the most likely agents of terror for the continent

Al-Qaeda is preparing for a new attack in Europe and Denmark is at the top of its list, according to the head of US National Intelligence, Dennis C. Blair.

In his department’s 2008 annual threat assessment report, Blair indicated that Muslim extremist groups such as Al-Qaeda and Sunni affiliates who go to Pakistan for terrorist training and return constituted the main threat to European security.

Look to our Southern Border with Mexco and tell me how many Arabs are sneaking across with the rest of the illegals.

Let Europe worry about their own defense, we have one of our own to make,and we better start soon.

No.

I have said repeatedly over the years since 9/11: “What happens over there affects us here.”

That’s true.

From the assorted communists that Obomba has surrounded himself with you'd need go no further than that to find a bomb thrower or two.

His gallery of cabinet members and close associates are like a Rogues' Gallery of America haters.

Look how busily they go about the business of wrecking the train they have so carefully loaded with new cars for us to pull.

So being nice and having ‘dialogue’ with them, supporting them, giving them homes, food, etc... didn’t make them stop wanting to us? Or you?

I believe there are currently around 700 of them in Helmand. Which adjusted for the U.S. population would be equivalent to 39 000 soldiers.

Numbers of soldiers killed adjusted for population: 1232. Heroes all of them and unfortunately making the Kingdom of Denmark the country to suffer the heaviest casualties adjusted for population among the coalition in the Afghan campaign.

In Iraq they did have another battle group deployed between April 2003 and December 08. 4/03 b-withdrawn 12/08. This battle group consisted of 545 soldiers at its peak, equivalent to 30 000 soldiers adjusted for the U.S. population numbers.

Adjusted deaths: 392.

Today, Denmark has troops in the NATO Training mission and in the Coalition Military Assistance Training Team in Baghdad.

From September 2008, Denmark took command Task Force 150 – part of the maritime component of the Global War on Terror.
