Italy faces growing jihadist threat

Posted by Neil Doyle - Nov 21st, 2009 - filed under Breaking.

Like other European states, Italy has become increasingly fearful that the Lashkar’s infrastructure could support operations by autonomous Islamist cells operating on its soil.

In October, Libyan national Mohamed Game attacked an Italian Army barracks in Milan, armed with an improvised explosive device carried on his body. The device failed to function properly, and although Game was left in a coma, he succeeded only in injuring one soldier who tried to bar his entry into restricted areas of the complex.
