The conflict between Israel and Hamas in the Middle East has heightened tensions across Europe, where authorities are on high alert for potential acts of terror and violent unrest.

In Germany, a wave of bomb threats this week has forced authorities to evacuate some schools and other sites across the country.

Absolute dickheads whoever did this. You can have your discussions, but bomb threads on schools helps no one.

Sad thing is in Germany you actually don't know if those threats are really from those goatfuckers of the Hamas or if some of our right wing political parties are trying to harm the view on Muslims here...

Really hope that the authorities can clear this up and whoever is behind that enjoys some well deserved jail time.

At this point it could be kids making fake threats too. The threats being in Arabic doesn't really narrow things down because of how easy it is for ordinary people to get decent quality translations now.

And because of that it's important to verify the source and all of its information before we jump to conclusions. This conflict is in equal parts an information conflict so we have to make sure not use any false informations.

My thoughts exactly. There are so many different people living there, it could be anyone. 9/11 did a lot of damage to the moderate Muslims living in Europe and this will happen again.

I'd wish governments would take a stand for all of their people, instead of just going along with the rest. Easy: what Hamas did was wrong AND what Netanyahu and the settlers are doing is also wrong. And then let's start talking AFTER acknowledging this.
