In this episode of the Essential Geopolitics podcast from RANE, Emily Donahue Speaks to RANE's Senior Global Security analyst Ben West about recent attacks and unrest in Europe and across the Muslim world. An article published by RANE recently pointed out that the attacks are of a pattern of violence associated with the Mohamed cartoon controversy that has recently flared up due to an ongoing trial in Paris. Attacks in September and early October focused on individuals and symbols directly linked to the cartoons, but the target set expanded as initial attacks spawned more violence, along with apparent retaliation to the initial attacks. In Europe, the return of the cartoon controversy comes amid rising concerns over Islamophobia and associated attacks. Verdicts in the trial that began the latest chapter of the controversy are expected in December, potentially providing motivation for even more attacks.
