ok, then let's go back on topic: terrorism. Most of the terrorism in France happens in Corsica. This island is the single biggest budget of anti-terrorism in France. It's where the majority of special police forces are working (in number of deployed people, they are trained west of Paris and sent by plane).

in Corsica alone: there were 78 terror attacks in 2012, 21 in 2013, 12 in 2014.

And I can tell you that also there is a strong immigration community in Corsica (among mostly racist and weaponized natives, it must be "interesting"), most of that was done by traditional Corsicans.

Let's go to our other favorite terrorists: the Basques, basically there was a tacit agreement that they don't spill blood in France and they wouldn't be chased (it's over), so they were bombing and killing in Spain and taking refuge in France.

There were bomb attacks in Brittany too, but they are stopped.

A common interesting theme between those 3 terroristy regions: they just love speaking and "defending" a local language ... that is not French.
