Not sure where we are not communicating. "Earlier I was saying things are becoming global" -- what are you referring to? From the time I have spent in Europe and talking to Europeans over the last several years, I perceive Europeans as less motivated by a fear of terrorism than Americans. YMMV. I perceive UK residents as particularly upset by citizens of other EU countries (e.g., Poland and Rumania), who do not need permission to move to London. That's in contrast to countries such as Germany, Italy and Greece, where the bigger issue is refugees from outside Europe. Germany has been relatively welcoming, but it does not have a Mediterranean port. Greece and Italy have been forced to bear the brunt of the refugee crisis by other EU countries.
