I think that Europe has woken up and is taking care of business in its immediate vicinity.

How so? All I see are a bunch of hand-wringing wimps who are basically begging the terrorists not to hurt them again. The LAST thing to do when terrorism strikes is show any fear.

It's debatable whether the Spanish vote was an indication of their fear/appeasement instincts or was simply a reaction to being lied to by Anzar about Eta's involvement in the terrorist act. He was way too quick to point the finger in their direction, and it reeked of electioneeering. I think there's a good chance the incumbant would still be in office if he were straight with the electorate about Al Qaeda's (probable) role in the attack.

well I think the terrorism in South Eastern Europe is being eliminated with this current Kosovo situation.

There have been a number of small events in Serbia, Macedonia, Kosovo, Greece over the past year that in total are curbing the threat of terrorism in the region.
