It was Russia, not the US. If you aren't russian you are unlikely to have any idea how it went over.
But more generally, "small" terrorist attacks happen way more frequently than the big ones, I expect that is because they are easier to pull off. White power types kill a handful of people each year in the US but you don't hear about them if you aren't tuned in because (a) they aren't brown (b) they are small events.
- anigbrowl 13y agoYou're making my point for me. There are a fair number of small scale terror attacks, and they don't change things that much because they are small. I grew up in Ireland and the UK, I have had plenty of occasion to consider small-scale terrorism since it was a very frequent occurrence at that time.
- Amadou 13y agoI could have sworn your point was that small-scale attacks aren't going to happen because they aren't as scary.
