Country: | What's gonna be the next place of terror bombings? Maybe a quite dummy poll, since in Israel there are bombings on daily plan... but I'm just curious of what do you think about this. According to my sources, there's gonna be another bomb attacks around some major Western Europe capital (Roma) as well as in the Central-Eastern Europeean places (Prague and Warzsawa)...
Why Roma? They're one of the greatest allies of Bush in war on terror.
Why Warzsaw? Poland is also a great ally and has a large numbered army in Iraq.
Why Prague? There's a historical Jewish town with one of the most valuable architecture, which is symbolic for the world Jewry and also tens of thousands tourists visit it each day.
Also take this thread as a sondage of your war-on-terror opinions.
Cheers,
Pisis |

| If these dumbass coward b*stards had half an ounce of sense they would hit a different major city in the UK, most people seem to think that London is the only major city we have. No offence intended to my brothers in far flung places, but that is the general opinion I get from non UK residents.

Country: | They all think that if you're from Britain, you're from the UK. When, in fact, the odds are you're not! Because there's 8 million in London and the surrounding borough (2 million in London itself) - and 60 million in the entire country.
I think this thread is a bit silly 'cos it seems like you're just sat there with a frightened look on your face questioning when and where the next attack is going to happen. A lot like FEAR or TERROR...which is exactly what those pricks want.

Well, I think London is a better target for terrorists because the Royal family is living somewhere in the city.
But they could still attack major cities like Glasgow, Plymouth or Dover. (Well, is Plymouth or Dover REALLY a major city ? I don't know. But if there name are written on a map, they must be big.) |

Country: | But for them it's symbolic. Like SU said, alot of people outside of England can only name one city in England...London. Plus being the capital and one of the queen's residences as well.

Country: | I think Rome will be next because of there involvment in Iraq and then Sydney and maybe Copenhagen because of there involvment. All 3 have recieved threats from the Al Quaida.
Another place to look at a possible strike will be the Winter Olympics next year in Italy and maybe even the World Cup next year because of the massive amounts of forign dignitaries attending.
