I find it amusing that "some" here have claimed that the "old" Europe was soft on terror because "old" Europe did not rubber stamp, never mind assist, US actions in Iraq. They also said that Spain had rolled over to terrorist.
Osama bin Laden has offered Europe a truce. And rightfully so Europe including old Europe told him to fuck off that they do not negotiate with terrorists and criminals.
Is "old" Europe soft on terror? Only in the minds of those to whom they do not bend over and submit to, and for these it is a great coercive tool to malign "old" Europe with the "surrender to terrorist" label.
