    I don't think that the people of Tibet are very terrorist-like.

    However, there are a lot of Islamic militants who have a bone to pick with China.

    I highly doubt that anything will happen, but you just never know. China seems to be taking appropriate anti-terrorism measures and then some; but who knows.

    The only terrorism seems to be in the far corner so far but I'd be more worried about watching the war in Georgia than terrorists at the olympics though they may get the closing ceremony

    Well they've been talking about it on the news (over here anyway) and it was mentioned that a large proportion of spectators are in fact military so I think they're doing a good job, but there's a long way to go.

    yes and you have to think those military people have no choice they are forced in the army and the atmosphere must be tense.

    I doubt there will be a notable terrorist attack. There are only a handful of terrorists in the world, and not many of them are equipped or interested in the Olympics.

    actually iran was told (i think it was iran) they can't come to compete in the olmypics two weeks or more before it started.

    also two american people were randomly attacked yesterday...

    -1 killed
    -1 injured
    -the attacker jumped off the two story building to his death.
    :(

    so hopefully the olmpics sould be okay thsi year :)



    plus...we have a war goin on in iraq... the onlympics is a place where all of us come together and forget our differences to simply play the sport.

    Terrorism? No way, not at these olympics. The Chinese are good with security.

    A few days ago, there was a bombing at the Chinese border and 40+ were injured, and 10+ were killed.
