The Italians have
arrested 5 on terrorism charges:
Five North Africans have been arrested in Italy on charges of conspiring to commit acts of international terrorism.
Police in Bologna say they arrested four Tunisians and a Moroccan and are seeking a sixth man.
They are investigating an alleged international terrorist ring, which they say recruited suicide bombers for Iraq and Afghanistan.
And how does a European country track terrorists and their recruiters?
Investigators had gathered information on the activities of the terrorist group through phone taps.
I certainly hope they had warrants for those phone taps...

Nah, Mafia took care of that, and anyone else who has a problem with phone tapping.
That's sort of what I meant... Those who froth at the mouth when the US listens in on international calls of suspected terrorists often also believe we should "be more like Europe".
The anti-terror laws in Europe make the Patriot Act look like playground games. We're mere pikers when it comes to "invading our citizens' privacy".
