Parts of Europe are going to end up like Bosnia.

With NI they themselves set the pace of the hostilities from within, it wasn't like someone said something in Denmark and tulip kicked off. Now all it will take is a few cartoons and there will be riots in dozens of cities, which of course can be manipulated by foreign powers. Groups will get segregated eventually.

If you consider Islam a timeless religion with its literal viewpoints then the people who had to 'deal' with a large Islamist population in the 50s and 60s will have a far greater insight into what the future holds.

Indeed but it's only going to happen more and more. They might be far right and no sane person generally wants to go near them but the far right and nationalist parties have been gaining ground for quite a few years. Ok their approach in this one is still too far off an sane persons radar to back it but the discontent is grown and with absolutely nothing being done in any of the countries affected it's only going to grow.

This isn't a problem that can be resolved by just calling people far right and carrying on unchecked.
