Terrorists posing as innocent refugees have been discovered in Italy, Germany, Sweden and Denmark, and are working to obtain permanent residence permits.
European leaders are drawing up plans for maintaining peace in the Middle East. But reports suggest they should be more concerned about the presence of extremists at home.
Italian daily Libero Quotidiano warned on Thursday that “Hamas is already among us,” with an “armed, organised network ready to strike.” Giovanni Giacalone, who is an expert on terrorism and Islamic groups, also told il Giornale on Friday that while “it’s difficult to provide a precise estimate of how many Hamas supporters there are in Italy … I wouldn’t be surprised if we reached thousands.”
Giacalone added that support is made most clear at pro-Palestine protests and on social media. But perhaps more concerning than this is the mostly hidden presence of Hamas ‘operatives’ who are working to obtain permanent residence permits in Italy and elsewhere across the Continent.
