In countries like Iraq, where muslims were integrated much better, it does not look better though. It is a poorer country however compared to France or Belgium.

Germany has so far had 12 attempts at an attack since 2001, 11 of which were prevented by the police, partially due to cooperation with other countries, specifically the US. The one that was not prevented was a failure I think. But that is where I'd begin in order to stop it, give the police the means to stop them before they happen instead of trying to stop people from gathering or something like that.

The soft factors that you mention also count. If our country is more loveable, it will be harder for radicals to tell children that it isn't.
