actually brian i am aware of that. however i was merely trying to illustrate that seeking refuge from terrorism isn't really going to be effective...
You could go to Scandinavia. Not too much up there.
.least of all in england where there is history of terrorist attacks in very recent history. on top of which there have been more than one incident in which the ira went against the agreements of their cease fire.
The IRA have carried out the odd punishment shooting in Northern Ireland (which hasn't breached the terms of their ceasefire - the British NI minister has the final call on who's broken their ceasefire - It's a wierd situation, but, well, it works) but have certainly not carried out activities in mainland UK since the start of their ceasefire.
brian, i think you are reading way too much into what i said. my point was basically that people who are determined to kill masses of innocent people are going to do it anywhere...not just in the us. things like the wtc attack happen all over the world. again, not to the same dramatic degree, but that doesnt make it any less horrible. as for scandanavia. you could go there, but why on earth would you? :o) no offense to our scandanavian sinisters :o) +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
