It's possible but unlikely. It's actually worded in the original Arabic as "Two Cities"

Thanks for the rapid response! I suppose I was looking in the wrong direction.

Warn the disbelievers of a painful chastisement, excepting those of them with whom you have a pact and have not faulted in any respect, nor supported anyone against you. Carry out the obligations you have assumed towards them till the end of their terms. Surely, Allah loves those who are mindful of their obligations. When a period of four months during which hostilities are suspended expires, without the idolaters having settled the terms of peace with you, resume fighting with them and kill them wherever you find them and make them prisoners and beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them at every place of ambush.
(Surah 9:3-6)

Does this refer in any way to the declared "truce" with europe?
