ARTICLE SNIPPET: "AMSTERDAM, July 8 (Reuters) - Nearly half the citizens in the Netherlands expect the country to fall victim to an attack like Thursday's bombings in London, according to a new poll.
The poll, conducted by TNS NIPO for RTL television, found 97 percent of the population thought more terror attacks were likely somewhere and half said the Netherlands would be the next target in Europe.
Nearly 90 percent believed an attack could not be prevented.
Anxiety in the Netherlands -- which last month ordered three radical imams to leave the country after its intelligence service said they represented a security threat -- is also higher now than after the 2004 Madrid bombings.
Fifty-one percent of respondents were rather concerned or extremely concerned over the likelihood of an attack and were growing more willing to give up certain freedoms if it would mean more security."
