A sensitive topic but do you see terrorism and the resulting xenophobia in Western and Northern Europe to ever decline? It's obvious that too much multicultural society has failed with France, Germany and Italy being the main ones but also Spain is almost falling apart. Meanwhile the culturally more homogenous South Korea, China and Japan are doing good. They even started attacking females in the tiny Dutch town I used to live in and felt safe!
The truth is the reason for increasing xenophobia are subconscious - the odd foreigner or tourist is a nice, exotic thing. But when they become too many we start to fear displacement. Hence the growing xenophobia in the West and ppl of Prague, Barcelona etc. being fed up with tourists. Tourist societies like Morocco and Portugal being exceptions as they know their economies are too bad so they need foreign tourism to make a living.
