I guess if you're not with al Qaeda, you're against them.... NZZ Online:
Islamic inspired terrorism is still a threat in Switzerland, according to an internal Swiss security report published on Thursday.The report goes on to say that Switzerland's terror threat is much lower than in France and Germany. Why? Far fewer immigrants.
The Federal Police Office's annual report said that the country was in the "danger zone" in western Europe and that it was also used as a logistical and propaganda base.In the past few years it has become clear that militant group al:Qaeda is still able to carry out attacks in western Europe, often using untrained individuals and at unexpected times, said the Police Office.
It added that Switzerland was known to be a logistics, preparation, propaganda centre, and retreat for extremist groups.
But the report noted that there were other reasons, apart from its geographical location, why Switzerland could become the target for a terror attack.
"Individual supporters of Jihad [Holy War] see Switzerland as part of a plot against Islam," said the Police Office in a statement.
"At the same time, according to our current information, there are active Islamic fundamentalists in Switzerland, among them extremists ready to use violence."
