Why is the U.K. being targeted for terrorist attacks and not the US? Do terrorists have a friend/friends in the White House?

    The UK is a lot closer to the Middle East than the US. That said, wasn't 9/11 big enough for you?

    Sure it was big enough Sbf but is it supposed to last a lifetime? One big blow and away you go? One big tragedy and you're done? That doesn't seem very likely. With Trump's big mouth and hatred for Muslims you'd think the bad guys would wanna shut him the f*** up by attacking us on his watch. Of course he'll blame Democrats and Obama and Hillary and California and all the Blue States for whatever happens . We KNOW that. But how many years ago was 9/11? 2001 right? I mean what have they done for us lately?  I guess proximity matters but I'm sure there are many suicide bomber potentials here in the states already just lying in wait to attack.  Embedded in our communities pretending to be friendly. I am waiting for the other shoe(s) to drop. How many terrorist attacks has Australia experienced? None I hope. Thank you for your reply and Happy Tuesday! :)

    Nothing organized, just a couple of nutjob lunatics. The guy who did the Lindt cafe in Sydney a couple years ago had no links to IS despite claiming them.

    Maybe you're on to something with regard to proximity Sbf. The farther away you are geographically from the middle east maybe the safer you are. And Australia isn't the threat that the US is. No lunatic head of state running the ship of state.  I guess the terrorists attack where they think it will do the most good. Aussies are not warmongers. Of course I don't think of the French or the Brits as being warmongers either and they are getting attacked a lot. I know whatever good will the US might h ave  enjoyed among other nations in the past is shot to he**! Trump is very effective that way.  SIGH. Thank you for your reply! :)

  • Good question and you proposed an interesting theory  to ponder...

    Historically, the most popular and effective means of controlling a population is by identifying an enemy.

    Not that I am a conspiracy nut, but I've often given thought to the possibility that not all terrorist attacks are as they seem.  Consider who has reaped the benefits of these attacks in modern times; the right wing politicians, military industrial complex, private security & prison industry, weapons manufacturers.  The "possibility" that many of these attacks are orchestrated by someone other than Islamic jihadists is a theory that I could actually buy in to.  This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at June 6, 2017 3:29 AM MDT

    Thank you for the compliment and your thoughtful reply Jon. I appreciate both. I'm not a conspiracy person either but Ike warned us about the MIA...Military Industrial Complex...many decades ago. And here it is. Here we are. With  a head of state no one, not even Ike, could anticipate.  I don't know how it will end but it doesn't look promising. Happy Tuesday! :)

    It just seems as if there is Sword of Damocles hanging over our heads my friend ready to drop at any moment and slay us. It is not a peaceful time. The world is being attacked. Our turn will come . How and when I cannot say but it's out there coming toward us. Meanwhile our head of state is working very hard to destroy us from within. SIGH. Thank you for your reply Autumn! :)

    My confidence is in God's kingdom that will soon establish itself and wipe out all evil. (Psalms 37:10) in the meantime jesus Christ told his disciples to "lift up your heads, because your deliverance is getting near." (Luke 21:28)the prophet isaiah was told to write:"do not be afraid, for instance am with you. Do not be anxious, for i am your God. I will fortify you, yes, I will help you. I will really hold on to you with my right hand of righteousness. (Isaiah 41:10)

    We have not allowed as many immigrants in as some of these other countries have. And we have placed those from terror areas under more scrutiny and even banned them temporarily while improving vetting. These things happened under President Obama..... President Trump has tried to improve the process even more but has been blocked by activists judges.
