Europe Adopts Israel-Style Security Measures
(Ha'aretz) Anna Pazos - European streets are looking more and more like Israel's, with concrete barriers protecting pedestrians and around famous monuments, more bag searches, and a beefed-up police presence. "When it comes to counterterrorism, Israel and Europe have intense relations," said Jose Maria Gil, a Spanish security analyst. "They are discreet, but very efficient." "Almost every European country has sent a delegation to Israel," said Ely Karmon, a senior researcher at the International Institute for Counter-Terrorism at the Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya.
