Does France have a terrorism problem? (lemmy.world)

It seems like France stands out among terrorist attacks in the news. Is it because they are more likely to be critical of Muslim culture than other European nations? Is it because there is a security failure allowing terrorist to come in and organize better?

I hope no one thinks this is the whole explanation, but it's part of history that is not known by many.

It's a tiny part that doesn't have much relevance today. And it's not a hidden history it was big news for years.

I totally agree with you on this. I can somehow sense that the law against Islamic practitioners has been tightened more and more, e.g. regarding hijab, after that. It's like if you cant be us, you can no longer be tolerated; you're not one of us.
