Anyone nervous by this bloody July?

For me all of these recent attacks in the world have an eery undercurrant to them - seems it is picking up. I have not felt this way since 9/11. I understand that this happens in Iraq everyday but thinking out of that box it is rather unsettling. If our mass transit got hit I would probably walk and I think it would have enormous psychological effects on the public. damn terrorists.

1. No. I don't worry at all.

No fear pumping here from those clowns and I take the subway to work every day.

2. No, I'm not.

Given the choice between public transport and walking, I'd take public transport every time.

If you give in to fear, bin Laden wins. I can't do anything about you, but I'm not going to let him beat me.

3. No, Ma'am

In this situation, as in many others, fear serves no good purpose, and is to be dispensed with like any other luxury one cannot afford.....

4. Egypt

CNN International and Sky News have had this all day, along with the Cross border fire with Syria, is all this leading up to something? I have a fear that Bush*t is getting close to Nuking somebody.

5. Some of us have been warning that Iraq is a training ground.

We have spent two years training the next generation of terrorists. If you consider our half assed job in Afghanistan, we have spent nearly four years battle hardening the terrorist infrastructure and training their troops in how to survive and thrive. Did you think that they were just going to safely stay put in muslim nations? That is just the fairy tale Beloved Leader told us. They are starting to bring the violence right back to us. Round and round it will go.

10. You sure hit the nail on the head...

I have always thought it rediculous for us to be training Iraqies to fight. The train by day, and fight us at night, or on their weekends off. Just like Vietnam.

7. Don't worry. Brits want the ID cards and Bush the Patriot Act.

As soon as both are passed and the public can be duly controlled / under submission and observation, they'll stop working on these attacks. Mission will be accomplished!
