| Why, do you suppose, have there been no suicide bomber here? |
|
It just seems odd to me that a suicide bomber or roadside bomber or some similar acts of terrorism have not taken place in this country yet. Anyone got any theories as to why it hasn't happened? I mean, its not like it would be a major feat to get into the country and it certainly wouldn't pose any problem getting the explosive materials. Opportunities abound for placement of devices in relatively unprotected places from sporting events to mega churches or just the sidewalks of one of our major cities.
It just strikes me as odd, what with all the reported hatred for us, that it hasn't happened yet.
