Thousands protest for more refugees in Madrid
17 June
[DW] For the second time in a matter of months, thousands of Spaniards have demanded their government do its part for refugees. Spain has resettled fewer than ten percent of the refugees it promised to take in by September. Despite agreeing to accept more than 17,000 asylum seekers, so far Spain has only resettled about 1,300. The demonstration was organized by Amnesty International alongside several other NGOs just a few days ahead of World Refugee Day on Tuesday.
But perhaps the recent attacks in England have changed some minds:
In February, more than 150,000 people marched in Barcelona to demand resettlement be implemented faster.

Last week, the EU said it was pursuing legal action against Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic for refusing to accept more refugees.

[Breitbart] During the first round of the French presidential election in April, police in Marseilles foiled a terror attack aimed at disrupting the election.

The report backs up statements shortly after the men were arrested from the Front National who said they believed the terror attack was directed at Le Pen.

Along with their attack on Le Pen the two men, identified as 23-year-old Clément Baur, 23, and Mahiedine Merabet, 29, also planned to attack polling stations on the first round election day. Bars said to be frequented by Americans, Israelis, and Russians were also targets according to the source.
