You're right that the globalist nature of European governments plays a significant role, but I don't think you're right to dismiss mountains as an obstacle for the would-be terrorist rather than a hinderance for border security. But that's a pointless side issue. Most European governments cannot physically secure their entire borders. They don't want to either, there is a great deal of legitimate movement of people. Imagine trying to seal the USA-Canada border. The sheer volume of people trying to go back and forth would greatly complicate any efforts.
If you took a poll of Muslims worldwide, you'd find majority support, or at least strong pluralities of support, for what western society would consider 'opression' and 'terrorism'.
Um, no, I do not think so at all. There is not majority support amongst Muslims when it comes to Islamic terrorism. If you really think there is, well I don't know what to say, other than you're being more paranoid than I am when I say that terrorist incidents are a crock of shit.
It's also worth noting you're using the western definition of "terrorism". There might be support for, say, a Muslim blowing himself up at an army barracks, because that would be seen as an attack on an enemy's military. That's different to blowing a train full of commuters up, or driving a truck through a crowd. That kind of stuff does not have support. If it did, it would be happening a lot more than it does, because "the majority of Muslims" is a figure in the region of a billion people.
On a world-wide macro scale Muslims overwhelmingly support the subjugation of women
This is more bollocks. You can't just say it has "overhwleming support" because that assumes the women are complicit too. Are they? Does it count as oppression if the person being oppressed supports it?
I think, worldwide, more muslims celebrated 9/11 than mourned.

pushing a narrative that "most" muslims are peace-loving, women-respecting, western-assimilated, law-abiding citizens.
You're the one using terms like "overwhelming majority" and "inordinate amounts". Actually, the majority of Muslims are normal people, who are motivated by family.
You're assuming male, radical Muslims represent the entire faith. They don't, thankfully. They just get all the headlines.
"Yeah, I'm gonna contribute to the caliphate by having 15 kids so we can overwhelm the infidels"
"No I'm not gonna let my daughter drive"
"Pffft, see if I care if someone flies a plane into the WTC. Fuck those white devils"
"Christians? Here? Hang 'em!"
I'm so glad I don't agree with you here, because quite frankly this is a really depressing way to view a culture of people 1.6billion in size.
