"Are Europe's leaders striking the right balance? Blair was right when, in announcing his far-reaching antiterrorism program a week ago, he said 'the mood now is different.'

Not all civil liberties can remain in wartime what they were in peacetime, and while the terrorist fight is not a conventional war, it represents a serious threat to public safety."
