I agree that the "terrorism" threat is being played tio the full by governments to gain more control over individuals...However, the threat is real..

I was in a compound that was hit by terrorists in Saudi Arabia. Luckily, we managed to hide in the laundry room whilst the gunfight went on. My house was damaged, my son suffered minor injuries, my car destroyed and a dear 'muslim' friend was killed along with his wife and two children aged 3 years and 4 months. When i ventured out, I found my neighbour's three year old daughter in shock.

Please tell me that this was not the work of terrorists, especially in a Muslim country.
