We've just had 3 major terrorist threats within 24 hours. Sky News
and BBC24 have been giving almost continuous coverage. I have
flicked through the other news channels both yesterday and today
and find CNN and Fox News also giving loads of coverage and
discussion. In all that time, same number of attempts I haven't
yet seen any of it covered on Euronews. Comments?
Don't Panic.
The sky is not falling.

So I wonder why the independent experts are saying the devices could
have caused mayhem on a similar scale to those killing and maiming
scores of people in Baghdad. Are they all wrong and that
reporter/author, or whatever he is in Dublin, the only one who's
got it right.
'Could have'?
How else do they persuade the gullible to keep them in business?
Get real. These guys have careers, mortgages and families to think of.
Putting the frighteners on the rest of us is a great way to guarantee
their future.
You know as well as I that the risks of being injured or blown up by
terrorists in the UK are nothing like the risks of being injured or
killed in road traffic accidents, fires, MRSA in your local hospital,
Legionnaire's Disease, BSE variant CJD et al. And yet these guys
continue to grab the headlines for nothing more than scare stories.
It's an attempt to induce mass hysteria. Don't work though........we're
British :)
and Gordon comes and saves us on his big white charger ;)and everyone is
full of praise ;-)
