Read that earlier. Long-term, philosophical question here: is the world (not just US, UK, Europe but every nation) on a path to be continuously and seriously disrupted by terrorism? Nowhere is safe anymore




Well, the thing is for Europe at least, terrorism has been part of daily life for a long time. IRA/INLA/UVF/UFF/ETA/November 17/Red Brigades etc have been terrorizing Europe for years albeit generally not on the scale of the 9/11 attacks.

Most of these groups have been quiet(er) for the last while until yesterday. Maybe it was Al Qaeda, who knows ?

As someone who was on a train once myself that had a bomb on it, yesterday was not a good day.
