"Modern societies which enjoy a high level of comfort and sophistication should be synonymous with security. Yet, as we have seen, in this first decade of the 21st century, technology was the vehicle for what is considered to be the most severe and violent terrorist attack of all time: the attacks of 11 September on the United States. However, Europe did not remain unscathed. In 2004, there were attacks in Madrid, and in 2005 in London, not to mention what happened this summer in Norway, and, during this very plenary, in Belgium. In addition, there has been religious terrorism, especially in the Islamic countries, such as the events in Egypt. The feeling of insecurity among the public is great and no one can guarantee that he or she is safe from a terrorist attack. This is an enormous threat to international stability and calls for a response on a global scale, because it is a scourge that knows no borders. International cooperation at the level of a good intelligence network, along with an effective police, judicial, political and – in some circumstances – military system, could help to weaken terrorist activity. I welcome the adoption of this report, which harmonises the European security strategy with the internal security strategy in the fight against terrorism."@en1
