[quote=Anonymous]The big difference between safety in Europe vs the US has been discussed extensively in the last two days. To sum up: 1. Europe lacks a Central Intelligence Agency (like we have in the us), and to be blunt, European countries aren't equipped to share intelligence and information effectively (as evidenced by the arrest and deportation of one of the terrorists in turkey and the EU's failure to detain him despite a clear warning from Turkey). 2. Europe is much closer to the Middle East and is easily accessible--unlike the US which is on the other side of the globe and has tighter entry requirements. If terrorists could access the US on foot, by car or by train like European countries, we'd be screwed. Those are the key talking points from generals and security experts from the US and Europe that I've heard in the last two days. Makes sense to me.[/quote]
