More evidence that Europe has become an active recruiting ground for jihad terrorists. This, of course, is all the more reason for Europeans to be concerned about the huge influx of Muslim immigrants, even while politicians and the media continue to consider this a "racial" question. "Kurds Recruiting Radical Islamic Fighters," from the Washington Post via [1] AINA, with thanks to Nicolei:
Ansar al-Islam, a radical Islamic group founded by Kurds in northern Iraq in 2001, has rapidly built an extensive recruiting network in Europe. Over the past two years, European counterterrorism officials have arrested Ansar operatives and uncovered cells in six countries. The network is suspected of funneling hundreds of recruits to Iraq to fight occupation forces there.
There's a map and additional information at the AINA link.
