And the weird part is they do most of it in the name of Religion/Islam. Follow the teaching of Mohammed, and our radical Islamic point of view, or we will kill/maim you in the name of Allah!

Britain will offer to work alongside Algerian forces on counter-terrorism as part of a joint security partnership announced by David Cameron in Algiers on Wednesday evening.

[...]

His offer of a joint security compact – including access to UK intelligence and the deployment of a limited number of British soldiers – comes in the wake of the attack on an Algerian natural gas plant that left 37 foreigners dead, including up to six Britons.
At a press conference following the talks, standing alongside the silent Algerian president, Abdelaziz Bouteflika, Cameron promised the two countries would stand together in the fight against terrorism.
