The Europol recently updated their TE-SAT, which keeps track of terror-related attacks, arrests and deaths. I updated the stats to include this year's TE-SAT update (pic related). >This 2018 edition of the annual TE-SAT provides an overview of the nature and volume of terrorism that the EU faced in 2017. Although the majority of Member States reported that they did not experience any terrorist attacks during the reporting period, the human suffering and the threat of attacks remains high. In this report you will not only find information about how many terrorist attacks took place in 2017, but also the number of arrests and convictions for terrorist crimes. A brief overview of the terrorist situation outside the EU is also included.
>In 2017 European countries were again hit by terrorist attacks and there were many innocent victims of this indiscriminate violence. It therefore goes without saying that combatting terrorism remains a top priority for Europol. View the full report in: europol.europa.eu/sites/default/files/documents/tesat_2018.pdf
Extra notes for pic related: Europol TE-SAT 2018 reports there were 68 terror-related deaths in 2017, however, it only mentions in the report that 62 were caused by Jihadis and 1 was caused by "Right-Wing Extremists" (RWE), leaving out which group caused the remaining 5 deaths, hence I included these 5 deaths in "Unknown or single issue".
ethno-nationalist? separatist.? calling this BS the police get to decide what they charge you with
Alexander Reed
Ethno-nationalist doesn't mean white nationalist, check note 2 in the image. Separatist movements are often ethnonationalist (PKK is kurdish nationalism, ETA is basque nationalism...)
TE-SAT 2018, page 51. >Five foiled, failed or completed terrorist attacks attributed to rightwing extremists (RWE) were reported for 2017: all of them by the UK. On 19 June one person died and 10 were injured after a van was driven deliberately into a crowd of Muslim worshippers in North London by a man who had previously expressed hatred of Muslims. Four days later, on 23 June, a known supporter of the far-right party Britain First drove a vehicle into an Indian restaurant in London, injuring several people. Prior to the attacks, he was caught on CCTV making Nazi salutes.
Nathaniel Collins
yea I understand but the brit cops have been known to charge (mischarge)muslims with non terror attacks when clearly It was terror related.
we really cant trust the source, its the same with census records for populations, I high doubt they give us the true figures

It's the best we can get. It already puts Muslims in a pretty bad light (362 deaths out of 405 deaths since 2006) and right wingers in the best possible light (least amount of attacks, deaths, arrests)
Carter Parker
so are separatists just really shit at killing or do countries like Spain have some weird definition of terrorism?
Nicholas Thompson
>Most terrorist attacks carried out in the EU in 2017 were specified as separatist attacks (137 out of 205). France counted 42 attacks, Spain experienced 7 attacks. There were 88 security-related incidents in Northern Ireland, of which 58 were shooting and 30 were bombing incidents. The completed separatist attacks were aimed at businesses and critical infrastructure, but also at civilians and the military. A total of 30 individuals were arrested in Germany, Spain, France, the Netherlands and Austria.
Xavier Diaz
Corsica (France) bombs everything every summer and barely kills someone. The last dead by ETA was in 2010, a french cop, and 2 spanish cops in 2009. 12 killed since 2006. I don't know other countries like Ireland, etc.

Another help to the thread Europe faces a wave of freed terror convicts. Is it ready? - Washington Post /AP Press apnews.com/28a0ff6407834d859caab68893afa811 >PARIS — Over the next two years, terrorism convicts will walk free from European prisons by the dozens — more than 200 inmates who largely formed the first wave of jihadis streaming to Syria and Iraq > about a third of those are now believed to be back home, mostly living freely. Some are awaiting trial, but most never even faced serious charges due to insufficient evidence. >And many more were thwarted from traveling to the war zone entirely, left to stew and, sometimes, plot at home. "“These guys who are convicted today or who are awaiting trial will get out one day," "Terrorism prison sentences in Europe until very recently averaged about six years, compared to 13 years in the United States, according to data from Europol."
France, which has been struck repeatedly by Islamic State fighters and sympathizers, will be freeing 57 inmates — about half its current population of terrorism convicts.
Retarded coment: "Expelling the extremists is not a realistic remedy: The vast majority of the continent’s foreign fighters and sympathizers are purely European, which means they cannot legally be stripped of citizenship or deported."
right wing is smaller . in germany : hakenkreuz on wall = right terror . leftist make this hakenkreuz = right terror . all what right wing or not doing in germany is right terror . no fake news jaja my english is terror :/
>The last ten years has seen an increase in the number of lone actor attacks among OECD countries, as seen in Figure 4.5. While there was only one such attack in 2008, during the first half of 2017 alone there were 58 attacks. The general trend masks variation seen at the country level. The United States has experienced the overwhelming majority of lone actor attacks with 81 attacks accounting for 32 per cent of all attacks within OECD countries. Lone actor attacks in the United States resulted in 177 deaths, which account for 28 per cent of total fatalities among OECD countries.
>The United Kingdom witnessed the second highest number of attacks with 47 attacks resulting in 69 fatalities. Only five countries have had more than 10 lone actor attacks over the last decade: the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany and Belgium.
>In general there are multiple motivating factors driving an individual to commit a terrorist attack. For those attacks in the IEP database where a primary motivating factor could be ascertained, political factors and Islamic fundamentalism played equally dominating roles. However, the most prevalent motivation varies across countries.
So, you saying than german gov count all terrorism (left, anarquism and right wing) as right wing terrorism?
Benjamin Martinez
no . leftist paint a hakenkreuz on wall > offender not found = gov say = aha hakenkreuz on wall this was the right wing > and one more right terror in stats
Nolan Murphy
A painting is not considered terror.
Caleb Powell
Europe was so beautiful. What is their obsession with self-destruction?
