Re: International violence and UK security.
It does seem we are only observers of history as it unrolls itself, with rather bumpy bits appearing now and then. With the military campaigns against I.S. underway in Syria and Iraq, an upsurge in terrorist attacks in Europe may be anticipated.

Re: International violence and UK security.
The 'squeeze' is on. Some will escape towards Libya and other surrounding areas and as history shows some will proliferate therein and form smaller units for guerilla war tactics. Others will disassemble into solitary groups and individualize and become sole warriors with ever more unpronounceable names such as Boco Harem and such like. The years of the terror wars are far from over even then. The next boiling pot seems to be Morocco and other less well disposed North African regions which as the rest that have gone before will take the next 50 years struggling to find the best solution to their individual economic problems before finally settling for a quasi-democratic form of existence. Meanwhile the richer nations will be engrossed in the advent of the Cyber Wars and all that that entails. Happy world is it not.

German police and security appear to be not very good at all, what's the matter with them?

Re: International violence and UK security.
You have to understand the German psyche. Following on the Gestapo and afterwards the Stasi the ordinary German has an aversion towards being 'spied' upon. It follows that they will not allow CCTV or too much personal erosion of their freedom. Ergo - they haven't the ability to 'track' vehicles and people like we have here. There is also a 'rift' between the German Police and their Counter-terrorism units whereby information doesn't trickle through as well as does ours. End result - difficulties in pursuits or apprehending of suspects and known criminals. Other than that there is nothing wrong with them. Given free rein the Germans are past masters at 'control' and 'intelligence'. But those times are long gone.

Re: International violence and UK security.
From that, it seems the German social psychology of today is a product of the defeat, damage and division of WW2.
German public interviewed in the aftermath expressed surprise at what had happened, which seems curiously uninformed. Not finding identifying documents and fingerprints in the lorry until a day later seemed very amateur in the circumstances. With that and the rest of the "catalogue of errors", not very impressive really.

Re: International violence and UK security.
Yes indeed. I find the German people singularly ill-informed with matters relating to policing and intelligence. I'm almost sure it's a case of shame of their fore-bearers history and as a consequence they have adopted a mass blindness towards anything that may be taken as aggressive or dictatorial which leaves only compassion and tolerance which in itself is a sure recipe for subjugation - Merkel's antics being another of the consequences. Asylum seekers and refugees and economic migrants in such overwhelming numbers (15% addition to population in one go) must at the very least increase the problems of criminality by at least that percentage if not more. So - SURPRISE - SURPRISE - NOT.

Bit of a puzzle, Germany, I know nothing of it really. Anyway, as we all know, Italian police shot the Islamic terrorist, so that's the end of him.

Re: International violence and UK security.
It comes down to religious fervour. Tunisia was the first to have a 'Spring' revolt (stemmed from a man immolating himself over some government imposed restrictions) and street protests and a change of government without too much bloodshed. However - democracy doesn't suit all when Islamic law gets pushed out of place. The Islamists in Tunisia are fighting back the only way they know how - by ISIL assistance and method. Ergo - a large percentage of 'moles' reside therein.
The Tunisian government wants to be similar to Turkey where Islam can flourish alongside democracy and not be secondary to it and its Christian type laws.
