Several terrorists and Hamas members were arrested for allegedly planning to commit terrorist attacks across Europe, multiple sources reported Thursday.

Three individuals were arrested in Denmark, three were arrested in Germany and one was arrested in the Netherlands in connection to a suspected terror plot in Europe, German prosecutors and Danish authorities said on Thursday. Four of the seven individuals arrested are Hamas members and have deep ties to the terrorist group’s military leadership, according to Reuters and BBC News.

“Following the terrible attacks by Hamas on the Israeli population, attacks on Jews in Jewish institutions have also increased in our country in recent weeks,” German Justice Minister Marco Buschmann said in a statement on the four Hamas member arrests, Reuters reported. “We must therefore do everything we can to ensure that Jews in our country do not have to fear for their safety again.”

The four Hamas terrorists were planning to attack Jewish institutions in Europe, according to German prosecutors. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that those arrested in Denmark were “acting on behalf of Hamas,” though Danish authorities have not yet established a motive or target for the potential attacks, Reuters and BBC reported.

The three other individuals arrested in Denmark will be charged with terror-related crimes, according to the BBC. The threat was “as serious as it gets,” Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said on Thursday.

Senior European Union officials have warned of a “huge risk of terrorist attacks” going into the holiday season in the aftermath of the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks against Israel, according to The Associated Press. The State Department issued a “Worldwide Caution” alert in October for American citizens traveling overseas, and FBI director Christopher Wray said last week he sees “blinking lights everywhere,” referring to a heightened threat risk in the U.S., according to CNN.

IMPORTANT NOTE TO WND READERS: America – long the freest, most prosperous, powerful, altruistic and Christian nation on earth – is on the brink of destruction. Every decent and aware American adult knows this. The evidence is everywhere.

Democrat politicians today overwhelmingly favor late-term abortion up to the very moment of birth – formerly known as “infanticide.” They encourage children too young to drive or vote to have their breasts and/or sex organs amputated in pursuit of a “gender transition” that is both delusional and impossible, and which leads to staggering rates of depression and suicide. They have not just allowed, but ENGINEERED, a full-scale foreign invasion of America across her southern border.

Their standard bearer, President Joe Biden – a senile, pathologically dishonest and epically corrupt career political hack – is destroying America’s economy, energy sector, military, law enforcement, election integrity, national security, Constitution and overall national wellbeing as rapidly as possible. At the same time, Team Biden demonizes and, increasingly, IMPRISONS critics as “violent extremists,” “domestic terrorists,” “white supremacists” and “insurrectionists.” Indeed, they’re currently engaged in an obviously corrupt multi-front legal war against Biden’s chief political rival, Donald J. Trump, in an attempt to send the 45th president of the United States to prison for the rest of his life.

None of this constitutes “politics” in any conventional or traditional American sense. Rather, it is all darkly spiritual. The greatest nation on earth is in the throes of a full-blown spiritual war between good and evil.

The big question, then, is WHAT CAN BE DONE TO SAVE AMERICA? Fortunately, real answers and uncommon wisdom are showcased in the December issue of WND’s critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, “CAN AMERICA BE SAVED? The world’s freest, most Christian nation is on the brink of destruction.”
