"People don't react to terrorism because they're afraid of being blown up personally." I would disagree. My experience is that people view dying in a terrorist act as an especially horrific way to die and hence especially scary. I have had this specific conversation with people where they say it would be much worse to die in a terrorist attack than to die in a car accident. To me it doesn't make sense. They both kill you but a lot of people see it differently.
