Likewise. I am highly skeptical of these stories now. The "terrorist" threat seems to have died after falling out of favour as the public slowly came to realise there never was any major threat, and now suddenly "cyber terrorism" and hacker attacks are everywhere and are apparently the greatest threat we've ever faced. >The other thing that I find troubling is that many of our allies (Germany, France) don't seem at all enthusiastic over the sanctions against Russia. Why? I would like to understand the difference in what we (USA) want and Europe does. I honestly don't know. The US keeps prodding Russia in recent years and for what? Is it another war they're after? What are the US hoping to gain here? As a European I am delighted to see some of our leaders pulling back from supporting the US foreign policy.
