    Italy is sort of an anti-terrorist litmus test with its Catholicism and pork and does not establish the Jihadis in power as Britain very foolishly does. That Mayor of London is a sort of Vichy collaborator and your house if FULL of Fifth Columnists. More holes than Swiss cheese.

    The lack of roots maybe, which takes time, but if Italy is anything like France, Britain or Germany even, they'll have their fair share when the terrorists have laid down roots, just a matter of time.

    Their Muslim population is small by European standards. Italy has never encouraged large-scale Muslim immigration to the same extent that France, Britain, Germany and Holland have. Perhaps there is less political correctness as well. And maybe the Italians have less of a multiculturalist mentality - they have strong enough cultural divisions even within the indigenous population as it is without having to import them.

    This is probably to do with the invasion of Iraq back in 2003.

    Because Italy ignored austerity, and kept it's police-force vigilant.

    Because they along with the yanks have been blowing the sh1t out of the ME since the end of ww2 with the pretext of humanitarian interventions, then they let millions of the refugees they cause into the west some of which are terrorist cells, it all boils down to capitalist greed wanting to secure the earths largest oil reserves and keep the petrodollar going, people would have a lot more respect for the anglo saxon alliance of terror if they just went straight in and take what they want and stop messing around with this humanitarian nonsense.

    Isn't it obvious? Britain has had more involvement in preventing the spread of the caliphate. Therefore, they are a more attractive target. Britain plays a greater role in the international stage, hindering Islamic groups, so naturally they are going to have greater animosity.

    Also, Britain has far more Muslims. More Muslims = more terrorism.
