The short answer is yes.
You're exactly right that there has to be a balance between security and transparency and all the fundamental principles free societies are based on. The difficulty arises in that.... I mentioned in the U.K., for instance, there's an over-representation of ties to Pakistan in virtually every way with respect to their homegrown terrorism threats. That's unique.
That's not the case in many other countries. I mentioned that the largest Muslim population in Germany is of Turkish origin. Yet a study done by the Hamburg state security services showed that among all the terrorism suspects they had arrested and were monitoring or had cases open against, what have you, there included ethnic backgrounds ranging from Balkan countries across the Middle East to Indonesia, North Africa, sub-Saharan Africa. It's incredibly diverse.
You've seen the same thing in the United States, where, between 2001 and 2009, 125 people suspected of jihad-related activity were identified in homegrown terrorism cases. Of that group, there were 32 Arabs, 24 African-Americans, 24 individuals of South Asian descent, 20 Somalis, and 20 Caucasian converts. It's almost impossible, so because of that there has to be a level of transparency involved in the process.
