According to Europol, less than 1% of "terrorist" incidents in Europe are by Islamic terrorists. Sociology professor David Miller has suggested that arms of the UK government such as MI5 are deliberately encouraging hatred of Muslims through such documents and through information provided to the commercially-controlled media.[1]
Activities
"Europol sets up and coordinates cross-border operations against the most dangerous criminal groups in the EU."[2]
"Hate speech"
In 2020 Europol coordinated raids in several countries focused on people who made posts on the internet that they claimed promoted racism and xenophobia.[3]
