". Calling an Extraordinary European Council meeting was undoubtedly the right move following the terrorist attack in the United States. Naturally the European Union is being cautious in its response, so far at least, but there a number of sensitive points which merit special attention: a) the reference to Article 5 of the NATO Treaty, without specifying the country from which the attack has emanated, creates a particularly dangerous climate of war and reckoning; b) police measures to combat terrorism must be limited by respect for citizens' freedoms; c) a policy needs to be defined towards "friendly" countries such as Saudi Arabia, which have helped by funding the spread of fundamentalism; d) resolving the Palestinian question, especially the problem of Jerusalem, will release huge numbers of Muslims from under the spell and control of Islam; e) fundamental intervention in the global problem of poverty will free whole societies in Asia and Africa from the despair which feeds terrorism; f) the European Union must avoid Mr Berlusconi's divisiveness and Mr Blair's sermonising and take a calm and friendly approach towards Islam."@en1
