ISIS in Europe: How Deep is the "Gray Zone"?

- Prophecy News Watch - 
In the last year, the Islamic State's henchmen slaughtered hundreds of Europeans and Westerners. Their last assault, in Brussels, struck at the heart of the West: the postmodern mecca of NATO and the European Union.

We should now answer the same question: How deep is the "gray zone" of the Islamic State in Europe?

Peggy Noonan recently tried to give an answer in the Wall Street Journal:

"There are said to be 1.6 billion Muslims in the world. ... Let's say only 10% of the 1.6 billion harbor feelings of grievance toward 'the West', or desire to expunge the infidel, or hope to re-establish the caliphate. That 10% is 160 million people. Let's say of that group only 10% would be inclined toward jihad. That's 16 million. Assume that of that group only 10% really means it would really become jihadis or give them aid and sustenance. That's 1.6 million."

That is a lot.
