It just means the terrorists will target other things instead of airports. Some sarin gas released in a busy London underground station (e.g Victoria) would be quite disasterous. All those people in such a confined space with congested escape routes...

vamp, thats nothing, we have tanks all over the place here ;) well, alot of them are going to Kuwait, but still, there are a bunch left :D Just an everyday thing here. I hate it tho when you get on the main road and there is this stupid tank goin' like 20 miles per hour heh and you have to pass it. Good thing the machinegunners are kind enough to signal you when its safe. They are too kind:D :p

Well you live by a military base ;)

Its huge news here to have fully armed combat vehicles patrolling the streets along with armed troops.:afraid:

Right, 'cause the criminals are generally the only armed folks patrolling the streets in the UK! ;)

(No, not UK bashing, just UK joking...I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to London and Coventry, during which time was the 9/11 attack...)

Cheers,
