I completely agree with the need to find out the underlying causes of violent radicals.





US to Host Anti-terror Summit

The United States said it will host a summit in Washington next month on preventing violent extremism, as European and American leaders call for stronger measures to monitor people online and at borders.

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder announced the February 18 meeting from Paris on Sunday, where he joined an emergency conference on terrorism in the wake of a terror spree in France last week that killed 17 people.

"We must deal not only with holding accountable those people who would perpetrate such heinous acts. We must also deal with underlying causes that cause these things to occur, that somehow radicalize these people to take actions that we all find to be an affront to humanity," Holder said.

"We will bring together all of our allies to discuss ways in which we can counteract this violent extremism that exists around the world," he added.


In a statement, the White House said the meeting will highlight "best practices and emerging efforts" from several U.S. communities carrying out pilot programs to address extremism.

Sharing information

French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve, who convened the ministerial meeting, said Europe must improve information sharing across borders and better track passengers traveling between countries.

"We are convinced of the necessity of this system at a European level to monitor those who go to theatres of war to fight as terrorists and come back, and to fight against organized terrorist networks," Cazeneuve said.

Cazeneuve said that "fundamental liberties" would be still respected under increased surveillance measures.

I agree.

There needs to be an effective action on preventing violent extremists of all types.

We need to begin by accepting the fact that the core teachings of any religion is not the cause.

Maybe not core teachings but core teachers is part of the cause.

See which ones, that made the memorial, didn't have to change anything in their day planner. (meeting with others that also attended might be 'suspect')

Add feminists to the list and you have my blessings. - Px

What these damn Muzzies need is a good pair of work boots and a reason to fill them. They seems to be good at breaking stuff, they are going to have to put everything back together soon or later.

Too bad the OPEC $100bbl necessary for the ME to economically function has been shot to sh¡t.
