Stop the country bashing, and the conspiracy theories or bans will start to be handed out. |

I think they're just incompetent.
How little success terrorists have had since 9/11 never fail to amaze me.

I think we should give up all of our civil rights and cower in fear - you say it's already been done? Well carry on then.

Same procedure as every year?
|
There something I never understood about this terrorists, if they want to "do damage" and such, why the hell would they announce their intentions? it makes no sense, it will make the authorities be even MORE careful of a potential attack. Is there any other reason besides having people terrified (wich is already pretty bad)?

Pretty much. Good luck and be safe anyway. Hopefully nothing like this happens.

One of the real tragedies of 9/11 and the subsequent effects is how it has been used to evoke fear, anger, and strip away, in America in particular, but it resonates throughout Europe to a lessoned extent, our values and liberty.
War has been waged, torture justified and practised, people held without trial for years at a time, rights to privacy carved down. As a result of a small group of extremeists an entire religion, and culture has been villainised to the point where "muslim" "islamic" "arab" "middle-eastern" have gone from descriptions to accusations.
Thousands of innocent Americans were murdered by fanatics on 9/11. Tens of thousands more innocent citizens have been killed, tortured, wounded, lost members of their family, their homes, their livelihoods as a result of America's, and the Wests response to that event.
Although that said Modern Warfare 2 is a super fun cool game, so its swings and roundabouts i guess...

The word terrorist should give it away, terrorism isn't just about killing people, it's about causing disruption, making people change habits, causing terror. The IRA in the 80's in the UK were very very good at it.

dont they say this every year?
|
Hope nothing happens. The ramifications of another attack, both direct and indirect, would simply put, suck for everyone.
Seems like the media is just trying to sell a story though.
|
Meh in NY nobody is really that worried at least in my circle of friends. I don't think anything will happen.

Simply have to agree 100% on this.
In the past I always held the U.S. as one of the most principled countries on liberty and rights.
Unfortunately the actions taken after 9/11 has changed that picture so much for me I would now rank them very low on those issues in comparison with the rest of western world.
It's just sad as fuck really, you're supposed to be the good guys, so act like it.
Fight terrorists but fight them correct.

One man's definition of terrorism is another man's definition of a freedom fighter.

i dont want anything to happen please

Omg, I'm sick of seeing this stuff pop up every year. It has been 10 years and the news papers are still full of it . This is just another fear hype from the media who should be writing about the news, not just rehashing old stuff every year

Terrorisism threat upgraded from orange to lemon.
If you own the govenment issue Countdown to death wall chart/sticker album now is the time to move the turban sticker in the Paranoi-o-meter™ from the box with a picture of a young man smoking a weird looking cigerette to the box with a picture of a dog on it's way to the vet.
You have been warned.

Well they gotta justify taking away liberties, war expenditures and government growing increasingly oppressive somehow.
People in fear are easy to take advantage of.
And if you read this and think it's just whacky nonsense, learn how much money is involved and how an entire industry is getting rich off this.
