France/UK: "It is not enough just to target violent extremism"

France/UK: "It is not enough just to target violent extremism"

Via UKPress (h/t Euro-Islam.info):

Prime Minister David Cameron has said he hopes Britain and France can open up a new front in the fight against violent extremism by working together to prevent the radicalisation of young Muslims.

After talks with French prime minister Francois Fillon, Mr Cameron said: "I am becoming increasingly convinced it is not enough just to target violent extremism - we have to target extremism itself.

"We have to drain the water from the swamp in which the violent extremism grows. I am sure that Britain and France can work together on this and learn from each other."
