Terror spreads

After the suicide bombing in Sweden and the attack on a church in Alexandria the business paper Hospodářské noviny fears a new round of violence in the new year: "For the first time Islamists attacked in tolerant Sweden. The attack on the Coptic Christians in Egypt took on unprecedented proportions for standards there. This could be a signal that terrorism and its targets are spreading. ... The flimsiest excuse justifies an attack. It need no longer be the 'great Satan' or the massive military presence in the Muslim world. Scandinavian cartoons or a latent conflict between Muslims and Christians like that in Egypt are enough. ... The terrorist network is taking on the role of a parasite. It profits from every problem and attacks those parts where the body is weakest. It makes no sense to seek the causes of this terror. Only one thing makes sense - to eradicate it."
